Coronado Remembers Rory, Rio & Errol in Advance of Veterans Day Film Festival
06
Nov
“In addition to the many screenings, [the Coronado Film Festival] hosted appearances that have delighted film festival audiences including Errol Flynn’s daughter sharing memories of her father.”
Rio, Rory & Richard Rush (photo taken from seat next to Leonard Maltin)
“Coronado’s world-class beaches, perfect weather, and proximity to Hollywood have made it a favorite go-to spot for the stars since those halcyon days when Errol Flynn, Mary Pickford and Charlie Chaplin strolled the Avenue. That same avenue, with its unique shops, blooming gardens and alfresco dining, has been named one of America’s five “Most Romantic Main Streets” by the National Trust for Historic Places.”

No. 1 for Apple Records

What was the first record pressed by Apple Records ?
It wasn’t “Those were the Days”
Na, it wasn’t “Hey Jude”
It wasn’t performed by The Beatles, but, rather, by a very famous singer who knew Flynn.
For many years few ever heard the recording, but a beautiful Flynn Mother Should’ve Known:

Rory & Sean in Coronado!
19
Jan
Rory & Sean have been a Very Big Hit in Coronado this Weekend, at all the VIP Ceremonies, Rory’s sensational Show about Errol, Dive Bomber, introduced by Sean, and a “The Baron of Mulholland” Meet & Greet/Book Signing.
Chris Lemmon and Leonard Maltin were around. Legendary Flynn-Fan Richard Dreyfuss met with Rory & Sean before the show.
Several festival guests had great stories about Errol. One was a little girl at her aunt’s home in Holmby Hills when Errol came by and read all the kids Peter and the Wolf. One fellow’s father used to watch Errol play tennis at the Hotel Del and said he was incredible, one day nearly beating the top ranked player in California/one of best players in the world. Also heard about Errol socializing with Naval officers at North Island Officers Club, at the Hotel Del bar, and at their homes on Coronado.
P.S. Dive Bomber is extraordinary on the big screen.
