Art Gallery Candid
14
Apr
Flynn with Faye Emerson outside the Flynn-Decker Art Gallery. Michael Curtiz has his back to the camera. I don't know who the other two guys are. The painting (photograph?) between Flynn and Emerson is allegedly John Decker's portrait of Mrs. Decker but I have no way of verifying that info. The unguarded look on Flynn's face tells a story of its own. His expression shows pure affection.

Silver River candid

Apr
Flynn with Nora at the premier of Silver River, downtown Hollywood. I don't remember which theater. This is the type of still that makes collecting so much fun. Candid photographs like this are a window in time. Look at the faces in the crowd – charming. It all makes me wish I had been there. And is that little girl Deirdre?

Footsteps in the Dark

Here's one of the half-sheets in my collection. It's not in the best of shape although the colors are still rich and strong. By the time he made this film all that was needed to sell tickets was his name in bold red letters. Enjoy!

More Hass and Flynn info

Apr
Attached is a transcript of a German article by Waltraut Hass about working with Flynn on William Tell. The second page has a copy of the original German article pasted onto it.
All of this is courtesy of Josef Fergerl who sent this as a gift after my book was published.
In his diary Flynn makes reference to “Cold Nose” and for some reason I once thought Cold Nose was a nickname for a person. Obviously Cold Nose is a dog.
Enjoy.
