Sean Rio recovering
15
Feb
I have been of the radar because we have been moving only to find that when I get back up and running that Sean has been run over by scum . A small ding turned nasty when the other driver got back in his car and run over Seans foot and other serious things. Very serious. Read below. All our love goes to Rory. Gideon and of course Sean. And it goes without saying our prayers.
Sean Flynn is hospitalized after being struck by a car and knocked into the air by a hit and run driver. According to Radar Online, Feb. 13, 2016, Sean and another driver had a minor accident and when Sean got out of his car to exchange information, the driver of the other car suddenly sped up and hit him.
A source told Radar online that Sean was on his way to attend classes at Valley College when he was involved in a minor traffic accident, but when he got out of his car to exchange information, the other driver rammed into him, knocking him into the air.
The source said that Sean got into a minor accident with another driver, who was driving what looked like a 2001 Grey Nissan Altima. “When Sean got out of his car to exchange paperwork, the driver of the other car gunned it at full speed and plowed right into Sean.”
The inside source continued, “The other car, who was driven by a young male with a female passenger in the driver’s seat, struck Sean head on, throwing him up in the air and over the hood before crashing into the ground.”
Sean Flynn is the grandson of the late Errol Flynn. His mother is Rory Flynn, former model and photographer and his dad is Gideon Amir, a famous Hollywood producer. Sean’s family has gathered around his hospital bed while Sean recuperates from several operations he’s gone through so far.
Rory described her son’s injuries. “Sean’s foot was almost severed off completely and right after the crash a bone is his leg was protruding through the skin. He also suffered multiple other broken bones.”
Several witnesses saw the car as it hit Sean and sped away. Although they recognized the make, model, and year of the car, they did not get the license plate number.
Sean is in good spirits as he took a selfie giving the thumbs up sign. When asked how he was, he told Radar Online something his Grandfather use to say,
“I file this under the banner of sh*t happens. Expect the unexpected.”
Sean Flynn, whose real name is Sean Rio Amir, was born on July 14, 1989, in Los Angeles California and he was named after his uncle Sean, who disappeared in Cambodia in 1971. He is best known for his role on the popular Nickelodeon show “Zoey 101.”
Police and Sean Flynn’s family are asking for help in finding the person responsible. If you have any information that can help in this investigation, please get in touch with the Los Angeles Valley Sheriff’s Station.
Our thoughts and prayers go out for Sean and his family as he recovers from this ordeal.

Errol Flynn love letters to Ledbury sweetheart fetch £1,000
05
Jul
Love letters written by Errol Flynn to a woman from Herefordshire he was trying to woo have sold for £1,000.
The matinee film idol wrote to Marjorie Bickham who he met while performing at the Malvern Festival in 1934 – years before he achieved fame and fortune.
In one he tells Ms Bickham, of Hill Top Fruit Farm, Ledbury: “I know I shall think of you until I go to sleep.”
It is not known whether he was successful in his romantic pursuit.
Flynn met Ms Bickham while he was at Birmingham Repertory and travelling to regional theatres – before he became famous for Captain Blood and other swashbuckling roles.
Later in life he developed a reputation for womanising. At the time of his death, aged 50, Flynn was planning a fourth marriage – to his teenage girlfriend Beverly Aadland.
The sale by Fieldings Auctioneers in Stourbridge beat guide price estimates of £400 to £600.
Nick Davies, a director at Fieldings, said Ms Bickham was the great aunt of the vendor of the letters. The vendor did not really know what to do with them and would be “delighted” at the sale price, he added.
He said there had been a lot of pre-sale interest in the “unusual” lot, including from overseas.
“Anyone in the limelight will have a lot of memorabilia relating to publicity but personal things such as these letters are more unusual,” he said.
Mr Davies said the letters were sold to a bidder in the room after a “little bit of a battle with someone in America” who was bidding over the internet.
He added the auction involved 700 lots, including the sale of the signatures of Charles Dickens and Charles I.

The Ten Most Stylish Guys in Movie History
01
Jul
Errol is at 10 which I do not agree with . But what they say about all his films and how he wears his clothes is great. Love Genene
They say that clothes make the man. They also make the man in the movie and, sometimes, even make the movie itself live on in the annals of classic filmdom. With that in mind, here are a list of ten gents and the characters they played who changed our sartorial habits forever.
1. Michael Douglas/Gordon Gecko–Wall Street Arguably the movie that set the style for second half of the 1980s, Oliver Stone’s Wall Street featured Michael Douglas’ Oscar-winning turn as corporate raider Gordon Gecko, whose ruthlessness in the boardroom was only matched by his sense of style. Douglas is all clean lines in his pinstripe suits, suspenders and slicked-back hair, creating an iconic look that screamed “power” and “go fuck yourself” simultaneously. 2015-06-30-1435707420-9827189-douglasGG
2. Malcolm McDowell/Alex–A Clockwork Orange Stanley Kubrick’s dystopian sci-fi allegory is one of cinema’s great dark satires, with a legendary performance by Malcolm McDowell in the lead as Alex, the leader of a futuristic teenage gang who spends his evenings robbing, fighting and raping with his “droogs.” Also one of the most stylish films ever designed, Alex’s “uniform” in all white, with suspenders, jack boots, codpiece, eyeball cufflinks, derby and single false eyelash remains one of the most iconic and repellent outfits in movie history. His Edwardian jacket with snakeskin highlights, featured just before the film’s notorious high-speed orgy sequence, was also a fashion statement that burned itself into the frontal cortex. 2015-06-30-1435707480-9946188-ACOjacket
3. Steve McQueen/Thomas Crown–The Thomas Crown Affair The original Thomas Crown Affair, released in 1968, is thought by many enthusiasts to be the most stylish film ever made. Steve McQueen reinvented his blue collar, tough guy image as the Boston Brahmin scion of privilege who masterminds the perfect crime, showing up in a different custom-made outfit in virtually every scene. As if McQueen’s/Crown’s fleets of exotic cars wasn’t enough, his tortoise shell Persol sunglasses with blue lenses made sunglasses a high-end item for the first time in the U.S., gaining the Italian company a firm foothold in the States, which it still enjoys, and sparking a renaissance in 2010, when the company released its “Steve McQueen Collection,” a retro set of specs paying tribute to the man and his unique style.
4. Sean Connery/James Bond–Goldfinger Sean Connery became THE leading man of the 1960s as superspy James Bond, and though all of his turns as Bond featured one fashion statement after another, Goldfinger remains the signature example. From Bond’s signature Rolex Submariner wristwatch, to his white dinner jacket (and carnation) worn under his wetsuit, to the sky blue terrycloth pool PJs that only someone as cool as Connery could pull off, to the now-iconic gray glen plaid three-piece suit Connery/Bond rocked at Goldfinger’s Kentucky stud farm (and which Leonardo DiCaprio emulated in Steven Spielberg’s Catch Me if You Can), few heroes in movie history can compare with the effortlessly stylish élan of Connery’s 007.
5. Clark Gable/Peter Warne–It Happened One Night Clark Gable not only looked sharp as a knife edge in Frank Capra’s classic 1934 romantic comedy, he nearly (unintentionally) destroyed an entire industry. While shooting the scene where he undresses, Gable had trouble removing his undershirt while keeping his humorous flow going and took too long. As a result, the undershirt was abandoned altogether. After the film was released and became a runaway hit, it then became cool to not wear an undershirt, which resulted in a large drop in undershirt sales around the country. Legend has it that in response, some underwear manufacturers tried to sue Columbia Pictures.
6. Sidney Poitier/Virgil Tibbs–In the Heat of the Night Sidney Poitier’s Philadelphia police detective (and fish out of water in rural Mississippi) Virgil Tibbs is the portrait of urbane dignity in every frame of director Norman Jewison’s Oscar-winning film, whether it’s crossing swords with Rod Steiger’s bigoted Sheriff Gillespie, slapping blue-blooded racists in their greenhouses or leveling a length of pipe at some less-than-friendly Klan types. Poitier’s suit is always crisp, his Windsor-knotted tie perfectly centered, his button down shirt has nary a wrinkle. And this is the Deep South in the summertime, sugar (although actually filmed in Illinois)! Poitier is, was and always will be THE MAN, with this classic film bearing the evidence forthwith.
7. James Dean/Jim Stark–Rebel Without a Cause James Dean had already perished in a car accident at age 24 by the time Rebel Without a Cause was released in 1955. But Dean’s wardrobe for his character, Jim Stark, literally rewrote teenage fashion forever. Chinos were replaced with Levi’s blue jeans, button down shirts with plain, white t-shirts. And the jacket, that RED cotton windbreaker that seemed to blaze like a warning to any in its path, became so in-demand that manufacturers were back-ordered for nearly a year in some locations. Go into any Abercrombie & Fitch, Lucky Brand or American Apparel store in any mall in America, and you’ll see at least a dozen outfits that are Rebel inspired.
8. Robert Redford/Jay Gatsby–The Great Gatsby Although director Jack Clayton’s film of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic novel left most audiences nonplussed, anyone with an eye for style found it mouthwatering. If the film is notable for anything, it’s for introducing the styles of Ralph Lauren to the world. Lauren, who began manufacturing ties in the Bronx during the mid-60s, was a fan of the classic American fashions that made up the Jazz Age, and his work remains eye-popping, and still-classic, today.
2015-06-30-1435708304-5455236-gereAG 9. Richard Gere/Julian Kaye–American Gigolo Often viewed as the first truly iconic film of the ’80s that captured the decadent zeitgeist which the decade came to represent, Gigolo did for Giorgio Armani what Gatsby did for Ralph Lauren. Richard Gere’s male escort had a closet full of Armani, then a relatively unknown Italian designer. In the now-famous sequence when Gere lays out a series of outfits on his bed, trying to decide which is the most seductive, the most fetishistic portrait of male obsession with clothing was committed to film, and new look introduced to the men of the world, one which still endures today.
10. Errol Flynn/Errol Flynn–Any of His Films and in Life Errol Flynn, during his peak from the mid-1930s through the late ’40s, cut the most stylish figure in Hollywood. Flynn’s public persona was often far more colorful, interesting and jaw-dropping than the flamboyant, swashbuckling characters he portrayed on screen. In the end, after succumbing at age 50 to decades of over-indulgence, the greatest character Errol Flynn ever played was himself, and his wardrobe choices always belied a skilled eye for what hung well on his towering frame. Whether clad in a tuxedo, a double-breasted suit, or a simple pair of swimming trunks, Errol Flynn made looking good look so damn easy.
