Mr. Flynn, I Mean, Mr. Flint, Saves the World from Global Warming (in “Our Man Flynn”) and Hot Global Feminists (in “In Like Flint”), Romancing with Wild Women and Conversing with Trained Dolphins All Along His Errol-May-Care Way.
Derek Flint tributes Errol, showing The Baron to be even greater than Bond.
See zacal’s superb “Our Man Flynn” post: www.theerrolflynnblog.com…
In addition to a bevy of beauties, there’s even a Basil-like staircase swordfight, ~ 1:32 in “Our Man Flint”.
And Flint is actually called “Mr. Flynn” at one point in the sequel! See ~ 1:16.

Twentieth Century Fox wanted to keep cranking out the Derek Flint secret agent films but James Coburn flatly refused. He was a serious Broadway actor and felt the series was big budget trash. If he did at least two more Flints he would have been a much bigger star. Pity because his two films hold up today as wonderful eye candy. Ralph Schiller
