Having already gone to the IMDB, I cannot determine who played the 16 year old girl in "The Undefeated" - she was Blueboy's love interest.

Anyone got any ideas????

The IMDB lists three major female characters, but two are obviously older and the third was 9 when the movie was made.

TIA!!

V-man,

Welcome to the John Wayne Message Board! I hope you'll be a regular here!

It's been a little while since I've seen the movie, but I'm pretty sure the character's name was Charlotte, so perhaps there's a mistake in her birth year on IMDb. <_<

I can certainly understand your confusion. I looked at the other roles she played in other movies, and I'm not familiar with any of them, to try to gauge her age from any other place.

Sorry I can't be more help than that. :(

Maybe somebody else can shed some light on this.

Chester

Welcome V-man to the board,

Melissa Newman (Charlotte Langdon) was the actress in The Undefeated. I am positively sure that she was not 8 years old at the time of the movie (born in 1961?). Must be a typo in the birthdate. She said in the movie she was 16 years old to Blue Boy, so we can either guess she was 16 to 22 years of age at the time of the movie, which means that she was born somewhere between 1947 to 1953.

Think about it, Jan-Michael Vincent (Lt. Bubba Wilkes), who was born in 1944. He was pretty close to Melissa Newman's age as I see it. At the time of the movie, Jan-Michael Vincent would have been somewhere between 25 to 26 years of age.

Roman Gabriel (Blue Boy) was born in 1940, which would have made him 29 to 30 years of age. Didn't the two kiss? Without additional info, I know she wasn't 8 years old. I bet she was born in 1951, not '61.

Cheers, Hondo B)

Yes, they did, I was very suprised. A bit risque for the period, given that she had a (white) suitor.

Thanks gang! I'm new here, something of a Wayne fan, but not real big, I'm more of a great movies guy. Big Jake, Casablanca, The Usual Suspects, Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan...
