Thank You to Ralph for the Information & Inspiration Leading to This Post!
The Sword of Villon – Errol’s Last Swashbuckler – Filmed for TV at Hal Roach Studios in 1956.
Based on the Life and Adventures of Renowned 15th Century French “Poet, Thief & Patriot” Francois Villon.

Along the Lines of The Adventures of Robin Hood & Don Juan. Sounds Perfect for Flynn!
Hal Roach Introduced the Show with the Following:
A Tale of Derring-Do
Of Lords and Ladies
– and Scoundrels, too
John Barrymore played Villon in 1927’s The Beloved Rogue, which can be seen in at this YouTube link:
