I hope all of you had a great summer so far! I have been absent for a while due to, visitors, vacation, travel and currently to a cataract operation on one eye, the other will follow . Such is life in the fast lane – ha, ha – as they say!
A friend of mine, an Errol fan like me found this Australian movie called “Flynn” and send it to me and I am passing it on to you. I am sure that some of you have seen it but maybe not all of you. I am for one, who never had the pleasure and maybe there are more of our members who have been out of the loop with this one. I had an inkling that there must exist an Australian bio movie due to some excerpts I saw in the “Tasmanian Devil” and this is it – “Flynn”. Guy Pearce an Australian actor plays Errol, although he resembles more to Horst Buchholz than to Errol, and he is only 5'10 and that makes a difference too, but may that be as it is… We have to use our imagination!
You maybe have to download a special Player of which I am giving you the link to be able to view the movie.
Player link:
port25.technet.com…
that is if you have Firefox as your browser. If you have another browser the movie link will either tell you what Player you need or download the “Free Window Media Player 11” .
The Movie link:
www.cinemanow.com…
or
www.cinemanow.com…
If you have problem let me know maybe I can help. The link also works on Internet Explorer!
It will be interesting to hear what you think of the movie.
Good luck and have fun watching it!
All the best to all of you,
Tina

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…
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!

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!
