Sean Scully

Notes

Scully began his acting career at the age of 12 in the 1960 Children’s Film Foundation film Hunted in Holland, which won the Diploma of Honour at the Cannes Film Festival.[citation needed] Following that, he was signed by Walt Disney and starred in a number of Technicolor family feature films for the studio, including The Prince and the Pauper[2] (filmed 1961, released 1962), in which he played both title characters, alongside Guy Williams as Miles Hendon, and also played opposite Patrick McGoohan in Dr. Syn, Alias the Scarecrow (1963). Scully also starred in the 1962 Walt Disney movie Almost Angels. He played Peter, a member of the Vienna Boys' Choir whose voice is near to breaking. He is extremely jealous of Toni Fiala, played by Vincent Winter, who is the new boy with a wonderful clear treble voice. Ultimately, however, the two boys become friends. The film was retitled Born To Sing in the UK. In his mid-teens, Scully found acting jobs unavailable, and he worked in a wood yard. On Broadway, Scully appeared in The Girl Who Came to Supper (1963). https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0780297/ His feature credits include: Hunted in Holland (1960) The Prince and The Pauper (1961) Almost Angels (1962) Dr. Syn, Alias the Scarecrow (1963) A City's Child (1972) Sunday Too Far Away (1975) Eliza Fraser (1976) Departure (1986) Heaven Tonight (1990) "The Doctor Blake Mysteries (2017) He has appeared on television soap operas, having been a regular cast member on: Bellbird (as Ron Wilson) Sons and Daughters (as Jim O'Brien) Prisoner (as Dan Moulton).
