What’s the Story on Lorraine Dora?

27 May

Prompted by Delvan’s recent comment/correction, who is Lorraine Dora?

P.S. Anyone see a resemblance to Lili?

Errol, Rory & Dierdre at The Nautilus!?!

26 May

This wonderful photo is thought to be Errol, Rory & Dierdre at the glorious Nautilus Resort in Miami Beach, but I’m not certain. Errol used to sail up to and stay at the Nautilus, repeatedly in the Zaca, and possibly once in the Sirocco, too, on its maiden voyage from Boston to LA. I believe this may have been taken by the wall to the side of the resort’s famous pool, with Nora nearby. I visited this location yesterday, on the site of what is now Miami’s Mt. Sinai Hospital. The setting is magnificent. Anyone know for sure if this is or is not “Errol Flynn and his daughters” at the Nautilus.

Cuba Libre, Baby

24 May

(Almost) Time to drink where Errol drank! I’ll have an Errol Flynn at Sloppy Joe’s and a Cuba Libre at Bodequita del Medio’s. I think someone down there should mix up an El Capitan Bloody Maria, too!

Stuntmen, stand-ins and stooges

22 May

Dear fellow Flynn fans,

picking up Steadyman Tim`s thread: www.theerrolflynnblog.com…

I want to wave it into a (safety) net citing all death defying daredevils that stood in for Flynn.

Let`s beginn with Jack Ingram, who broke his arm, his wrist, and several ribs making this spectacular leap doubling for Errol Flynn in “The Charge of the Light Brigade”.

Luckily he didn`t hurt his head, and so after several weeks of thinking in hospital, he decided to switch to acting in B- Western movies.

Enjoy,

Errol once played a character said to be based on a man with strong connections to the following images.

Who was he?!

Unreleased Nicole Kidman Film ‘Princess Grace’ will air on LIFETIME Channel

21 May

We had spoken here at the blog about the big-budget film production ‘Princess Grace’ starring Nicole Kidman in the title role. It was shot at least two years ago but the producers decided against releasing it to theatres. It is scheduled to be telecast May 25, 2015 on the LIFETIME Channel, with many repeats. The rumors in Hollywood were that this extremely lavish film was a beautiful-looking bore. Now we may jusge for ourselves! See you at the movies Ralph Schiller

Trial Run

19 May

I am doing this as a trial run. I frequently have comments, but I have been stymied by my computer ignorance. Fortuneately, David has taken pity on me, and explained to me (again!) how to post, so here goes! If I am truly able to get on, I will start doing so more often (fair warning!). Please, if you ever have criticisms regarding something I post, please let me know. I may or may not agree with you, but I will not be insulted and will welcome back and forth discussion. I hope I will always be polite. I certainly will try to.
