Along the Lines of The Adventures of Robin Hood & Don Juan. Sounds Perfect for Flynn!

John Barrymore played Villon in 1927’s The Beloved Rogue, which can be seen in at this YouTube link:

Shoreham Hotel, where Errol Flynn …
… met Earl Conrad to go over the galley’s of My Wicked, Wicked Ways, and played a trick on Conrad by having Woodsie and some teenage girls draped all over the rooms busily editing pages of the book with pencils! Conrad predictably blew his top while Errol innocently asked What’s wrong, old boy?
