Yes I know Adv of Robin Hood will be wb if done in 4k - this will be the last pic i post of it here wish this could be used as a potential cover - Stunning image!
You picked up on what most people today who do not know his body of work do not get- he is playing a version of his own self - he had numerous court cases scandals in the 40's and was playing Don Juan Flynn wink wink - but he also in the course of the film goes from playboy cartoon character to...
Thanks that I did not know --- you know I agree it might not be Robin Hood but Flynn is still great - color - cast - music make it top tier swashbuckler

A lot of the swashbucklers did not age well - Tyrone Power near the end too they lived fast and hard Power's father died at a young age and maybe Power feared that BUT Flynn and Power were stars and even their later efforts were legendary - Flynn knew he was long in the tooth BUT Adv Of Don Juan...
Yes Yes and Yes --- he was and is one of Warners most famous stars - glad though he wrote HIS story and that is what we should honor his story! For Bette Davis to come around and admit he had IT star quality NUFF Said - I do love though everyones opinion - the stars of yesteryear were and...
I think in a way telling the truth about his malaria that clearly hindered him his whole life is preserving his good name and we are all celebrating his talent while honoring his films

Wow sounds like eye candy! I always considered this Flynn's tip of his hat to the swashbucklers he made famous Great cast great score and a great watch and these restored classics gives us a glimpse of seeing these again as on opening night - thank you RAH you now have us counting the days...
