Errol Royal

Epittome

Dear Flynnstones, a tribute to the golden era of Hollywood will hit the the big screen this Christmas. The title Baby-lon seems fit. At first glance, Brad Pitt must have channeled Errol Flynn with a little Indy Jones or rather Peter O‘ Toole in „My favorite Year“ for his role. Calling it overacting would be an understatement. Homage or fromage… (more…)

Flynn`s Footsteps- Sloping and Sliding in Switzerland

Dear Flynnstones, Sankt Moritz is another great storytelling venue Errol Flynn set foot on. His best man Freddie McEvoy was a regular guest at the famous Badrutt`s Palace Hotel with is first wife, the oil heiress Beatrice Cartwright.

If I am not mistaken, it dates right after Flynn‘s acquittal at „the trial“. It can even be taken… (more…)

A Wider Shade of Hale

Dear Flynnstones, as this picture shows, Rufus Edward Mackahan could have held his own as Robin Hood. Billed Alan Hale, he instead got to play Little John in film on three occasions and for the respective generations. A whale of hails to Errol’s most trusted side-, back- and frontkick. Enjoy. — shangheinz

SEAN FLYNN & “VENGEANCE RANCH” ( & Errol in “Montana”)

In 1965, Sean Flynn had agreed to go to Tabernas, Almeria, Spain to film a movie (which would use the same sets used for Clint Eastwood’s film, “For a Few Dollars More”) with the Spanish twin performers “Pili y Mili”. The film, a Spanish-Italian co-production was to be a western titled, “Dos Pistolas Gemelas”(“Twin Pistols”) for its Spanish language release… (more…)
