My tribute to Errol Flynn in 26 words!

17 Jun

These selected words probably sum up our man who will be 102 years on Monday and still very much alive!

Athletic, Baron, Charismatic, Debonair, Enigmatic, Fantastic, Grand, Hunk, Intelligent, Jester, Kind, Lover, Marvellous, Naughty, Overwhelming, Phenomenal, Quintessential, Roister, Sportsman, Theatrical, Unique, Virile, Wanderer, Xcellent, Yachtsman, Zest.

***************************************

I am sure this opens the door to many authors on the blog creating a similar version!! Please try, it is great fun. I tried to complete a full logical sentence using the whole alfabet from A-Z, but perhaps it is up to a fellow writer on the blog to exceed the first one here.

Errol's movie costume trousers!

16 Jun

Is there a possibility that anybody of our members could identify these pair of Errol's trousers? Western Costume Co. Hollywood does not provide a service of identification, which is a great pity, but I thought I'll give it a try with all of you – maybe somebody has a good idea? Thank you in advance for your help!

Here's a link to the best arts blog on the web and today it features a great little feature on Flynn's friend Sadakichi Hartmann. If this link doesn't work you can find it on the right hand column of my blog under its title THE BLUE LANTERN: thebluelantern.blogspot.com…

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BASIL RATHBONE

13 Jun

Today I would like to commemorate the birthday of Errol's most valued adversary. I speak of none other than “Captain Levasseur”, “Sir Guy of Gisbourne” and the seemingly heartless commander of the “Dawn Patrol”. Someone who always gave Errol a good workout. So let's all raise a cask of ale to a fellow Gemini of Errol's (born June 13, 1892), Sir Basil Rathbone! [TCM is also paying tribute today to Sir Basil.]

Interesting News for The Errol Flynn Blog…

11 Jun

Dear Members of The Errol Flynn Blog, I have discovered some interesting news that concerns all of us at the blog. While seeking some information about a prematurely closed ticket of mine at the support desk for this blog at Domainmonger, I received the following reply:

From:


To:
za************@***il.com…:


Sorry that was closed. We just learned that our blogging platform is
closing up shop in a few months. We are working on a method to move
clients over to wordpress blogs, and will be getting back to you in the
next 2 weeks with that option. Until then, there nothing to do about the
spam issue, but the wordpress platform should fix this problem.

– Domainmonger Support

So it seems we will be moving!

I do not know what this means exactly for the style of the blog we are accustomed to or the functions we enjoy here as opposed to what will be available at the new home of The Errol Flynn Blog, but it is inevitable that we are going to seek shelter in a new harbor…

I will let you know more about the move as soon as I am offered the option to move us over to WordPress. I see no alternatives here, at the moment. We have four years of posts, comments and photos accumulated on this blog, and all of it will have to be exported to a new home! This may not be a difficult job for Domainmonger to accomplish but time will tell…

We'll make the transition as easy as possible for everybody, and I will let you all know what is happening and when as soon as I get the details of the process from Domainmonger. Meantime, we sail onward…

Mr. Josef Fegerl

08 Jun

I'd like to draw your attention to this picture of Dr. Josef Fegerl. You certainly know the famous author of the book about Flynn and Erben. He asked me to post it here because there are photos circulating on the internet which are supposed to be of him, but are not.

Photograph

06 Jun

Can anyone give me any information on this photograph? It was listed on e-bay a few months ago, I bid on it but the price went way above what I would actually pay.

best wishes,

Brian.
