Anyone? .. Anyone? ..

02 Apr

Anyone

This actor once played Robin Hood.

There’s a Ferris Buehler connection.

You know his name, at least part of it.

His Mother was born in an Australian town Errol knew well.

Flynn at the Box Office

01 Apr

The most popular sites really have no information on older films and I wonder how well his films did other than someones opinion. I found an interesting article but have no idea the source of the figures. Some may surprise you. I remember on one of the Yahoo groups there was a guy who had a source for these films and he was correct on one of them that I remember which was San Antonio. Its fun to read at any rate but would love to find an insider who could give us the numbers and also tell us how to figure them out with inflation to compare them to today’s films.

A (Watergate) Complex Quiz

30 Mar

A Heinz-inspired post.

A connection between Errol’s Tale of Tell and the Watergate Complex? How could that be? (No, Bruce Cabot wasn’t one of the burglars. … at least I don’t think he was.)
