Rory Flynn at the Lone Pine Film Festival!

Dec
Errol Flynn’s daughter, model/photographer Rory Flynn visited location sites in Lone Pine, California, of her Father’s cinema successes THE CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BRIGADE and KIM. Both were filmed in the Alabama Hills outside of Lone Pine. Rory had never been to the area and sat down amongst the spectacular rocks to enjoy the view and chat with actor (and Flynn super fan) Bruce Boxleitner and producer/host Rob Word about her famous father.
