The twink from prince and the showgirl I watched it on a flight from LA to London and thought he was utterly adorable! Whatever did happen to him? Was/is he gay? He seemed it in the movie....
Its Jeremy Spencer actually. Part English with Sri Lanka ancestry. Child actor in 50s in England - but vanished without trace and current whereabouts unknown. Odd after that good role with Monroe and Olivier in THE PRINCE AND THE SHOWGIRL - he also played the part on stage in Rattigan's play, and has a scene with Katharine Hepburn in SUMMERTIME in 1955, and is the young man stalking Vivien Leigh in THE ROMAN SPRING OF MRS STONE, and in several other films. One would presume he was gay ....

R5
I knew he had to be older than 73 as PRINCE AND THE SHOWGIRL was made in '56 and he was definitely older than 12 in the film so I looked it up. Jeremy Spencer will turn 80 next month.

He was 19 in prince and the showgirl? I would've guessed 15/16 R8

I just watched Prince. Terrible movie. But Jeremy stood out! I've been online trying to find out more about him but he's a mystery!
I ran across this message forum where somebody mentions he plays chess with Jeremy. But this was over 12 years ago.

I think he had a brother who was openly gay and was also an actor. So he acted with MM in a film version of a play that had starred Leigh, who was in Spring, in which JS appeared (but not in frame with VL). He was beautiful.

Re: THE ROMAN SPRING OF MRS. STONE - I think this is one of those cases where the remake is actually better (?)

Interesting . I know a Brit who is extremely handsome with the same genetics . Blonde British mother and Dutch/Sri Lankan father . Took me forever to guess his genetics as I thought definitely Italian or Spanish or something . Killer combo .

Real name was De Sarem.
His brother was a precious queen.
The Brits liked the Ceylonese as a colony. Aesthetic old British queens from the 1950s would say that the Ceylonese men were the most beautiful from the continent of Asia. (I don't know how they can generalise like that)
