From the Errol Flynn Blog Mailbag!

02 Sep

I received a very pleasant email from Marisa Harris today:

Hi, there,

I was recently doing a search for a specific bit of info on Errol Flynn
for my father who is a big fan. I couldn't find what I wanted online,
but I did come across your blog, which I've put my father on to. It's
great! As an employee of the National Library of Australia, I feel I
have to recommend Trove to you, in case you haven't stumbled across it
yourself:

www.trove.nla.gov…result?q=Errol+Flynn

Reading through the newspaper articles is fun, and please feel free to
go on a correction frenzy as the OCR doesn't always do a great job!

All the best,

M

I thought this was so nice I should share it with everybody!

More Sad News for Flynn Fans Admin Comment

25 Aug

The article titled More Sad News for Flynn Fans was removed at the request of its Author, Xaviant.

I emailed Xaviant who tells me he was in the process of deleting his comments about Pat when he discovered the blog was down due to bandwidth problems. This is usually caused by the file size of pictures uploaded to the blog. It may be time to remind people that digital cameras produce large file sizes and to resize them to something smaller before uploading to the blog. In any case, Xaviant was speaking in the heat of the moment, and once he realized his remarks were a bit over the line he intended to delete them himself. We have comment guidelines to refer to, btw. His comments were over the top but who hasn't felt a rush of frustration like this? With all of the work he has done on his screenplay it is natural to have intense feelings about your project. However, there are folks here who know that many good projects have met roadblock after roadblock on the way to success. The difference between success or failure is often a matter of dogged determination and perseverance…

I have left the comments that followed this article in place to show blog readers what happened and what we are all about when we go off the rails a bit. Xaviant is a valued Author and  this really is a small blip on the radar screen, as far as I am concerned.

So we move on from here with smiles on our faces, and the wind in our hearts!

Re: Jack Marino

Hi David;
I am back in town for a while I am gallivanting as it is summer and we have a wonderful one.  I see I have to catch up a lot but first things first. 
Your link to Jack's Radio Show with Rory Flynn is not working so here is a replacement.

All the best to you,

EF and The Heiress

14 Aug

Oh my, now I can't shut up.  But I've had a question bugging me for a while that one of my fellow Flynnians might be able to answer.  On TCM recently, Ben Mankiewicz related that William Wyler had approached EF to play Monty Clift's role in the Heiress.  I hadn't heard this before and was curious about the reference.  Does anybody know the source?

Dave Kehr on EF's Westerns

14 Aug

As promised, here's the link for Kehr on EF's westerns. 

www.nytimes.com….  Great photo of Alexis, EF and the fine Warner character player John Litel. 

Strange that Warner Home Video still hasn't released Silver River to the domestic market.  I picked up my copy…in France! It's well worth seeing.  EF and Sheridan play off each other well, and the film has a great score by Max Steiner.   

Best, Sean
