Praise for Errol as Custer
10
Apr
Today I received the book Custer and the Little Big Horn by Jim Donovan. To my surprise I found Errol in it aswell. In one of the last chapters of the book Jim writes about the movies that were made about Custer and the famous battle that cost him (and his men) his life. Errol is praised for his role as George Armstrong Custer. And the scene that is mentioned in the book is one of my favorite parts of this movie. Here you can see what was written and the photos in the book.

A lot of goings-on in that short period of time. A hectic time for Flynn and still he performs in front of the production cameras.

The Pirate’s Daughter

Apr
Recently I stumbled upon a book that mentioned Errol. The story looked interesting, so I bought the book. It was published in 2007 and maybe some of you heard of it.
In 1946 Errol arrives on Jamaica with his yacht Zaca. Ida Joseph meets him and falls in love. It takes 3 years before she becomes his lover. When she finds out that she carries Errol”s child, she expects him to divorce his wife and marry her. But life is not as simple as that.
Both Ida and Errol fight their own demons. Their daughter May also has her own problems. This story is not so much about Errol but it is a nice read. I really like it.
Margaret Cezair-Thompson got her inspiration when she heard stories of Errol living on the island. It is (ofcourse) fictional, but we see Errol as he lived there. Patrice, Lily and Beverly all appear or are mentioned, but they have fictional names.
It is interesting to read how Errol’s life could have been on the island. The main story is about Ida and May and how they deal with their lives.
You can find the book on Amazon and bookstores. I bought it through my local bookstore in the Netherlands, so I think it can be ordered easily from the USA or other countries. I haven’t finished it yet, but it’s nice to read about the man behind the moviestar. Even if it is fictional.
