Master Flynn Goes West – Through the East. His first international adventure! This is the trip Errol talks about in (His) Wicked, Wicked Ways. Not so great for the platypii, perhaps, but surely one of the most important and formative adventures of Errol’s life!

In an article reporting the stunning success of Spain’s left-wing Podemos Party in this week’s European Parliament elections, the New York Times reprised a comparison of the party’s very young, handsome & popular candidate, Pablo Iglesias, to Our Man Flynn. Looks like it’s not the last of Robin Hood:

For our Spanish-speaking audience:

Ever seen these photo's before?
I came across another great source of photos many of which I have never seen before, and that is saying alot. There is even a photo from "The Last Of Robin Hood" not seen before. At least I havn't seen it yet. Click the link to check them all out. Some of the images are samples of films in that they are a second or two long. This guy is a true fan.

I went ahead and ordered Roots Of Heaven even though its not Flynn at his best but also I only saw it on YouTube about a year ago because it was free then but not now. The main reason though is that just maybe if the film sells out they may choose to do another Flynn film. This one should have sold out by now but is still available which is a bad sign. I will right a review when I get it.

Never saw this film before and noticed it was one of the top box office film’s the year it came out. I watched it on YouTube and the image was not the greatest but 20th Century Fox always did a good job so I had to imagine a fine looking film. It was interesting to see another studios style from that era and some things were more modern and a bit more ruthless than the Flynn films. It also was more American and less British feeling which may have had to do with Power I don’t really know. All in all I enjoyed it but Mr Power was no where near the level of Mr. Flynn which I did not expect. I thought he would better since I remember seeing Zorro. I just wasn’t feeling it with him and her as far as chemistry so I wondered if anyone else has anything to say about Power and ever Miss O’Hara who was in her prime on this one for sure (she does a commentary track on the DVD). I know Tyrone can act as I have seen him in other things. Is this his top Swashbuckler? I wish I would have seen this on Blu Ray out of the gate instead of the way I did.
