Who is the young man in the white T-shirt ?

Bonus question

Who's the pretty young lady he's trying to woo ?

The guy is Alexis Denisof, and my guess for the girl is...Claire Coffee?

Ding! I just happen to stumble over Alexis completely @ random.

Dunno who the blonde is. Me like!

I watched it twice, and her smile at :51 looked familiar. So if you don't know who it is, how do we find out?

EDIT: Pretty sure it's not Claire Coffee. If IMDb can be trusted she was just 7 years old when Harrison recorded that song in 1987, and Denisof was 21.

EDIT 2: Wikipedia says that Gary Weis directed two different videos for the song, and this one was the first. It identifies Denisof but not the girl - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Got_My_Mind_Set_on_You

Is she Julie McCullough?

I saw that wiki page. I found it odd that Alexis was credited, but not the girl.

Which prompted me to ask.

Real good look at her face is at the :46 mark.

That'd be a darn good guess. Similar look, age. However, there's no mention of her appearing in the video, nor did she ever live in England.

I think the girl is Amy Stock-Poynton, who played Bill's step-mom Sissy in 1989's Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.

I'd bet the video was shot here in the States, either New York or LA. I know George Harrison is English, but you should be aware that Alexis is not, in spite of his accent as Wesley.

I just figured that since Alexis DID move to London when he was 17, and some of his early work ( Beginning his career in the film industry, Denisof was the fight director for a stage production of Hamlet, and in 1991 was the fight director for the BBC's The Other Side, Romeo and Juliet, and The Soul's Dark Night.[5] Alexis' first lead was alongside Christopher Lee in the feature film Murder Story where he played an investigative reporter ) , that the video was shot over there, and the actress would be English as well.
