Well, at least Errol got a Chinese Dinner and Alaskan Gold Mine out of it – and almost a menage a trois up on Lookout Mountain with Tiger Lil’ and the Queen of the Headhunters (or is that redundant?)

A Superb Tribute to The Adventures of Robin Hood: Featuring Errol Flynn and Ralph Dawson.
Was Ralph Dawson the greatest film editor of the 1930s? — Three academy awards in less than four years – Midsummer’s Night Dream, Anthony Adverse & The Adventures of Robin Hood. Mighty impressive.

Have at it. The immortal Walt Disney must have spun in his grave (or cryogenic freezer) when he learned about his beloved studio’s viciously fictional attack on his friend Errol. Miscreant Chuckie Pigham spawned this despicably malicious misdepiction of Flynn. I hope the sick, jealous bastard is burning in hell.
What a shame. If they had made Errol the hero, it could have been an historically great film.

Highlighted by an outstanding portrayal of a late-1950s Flynn by Kevin Kline, who, many believe, should have played Flynn in a major biopic way back when he could have portrayed Errol at his physical and cinematic swashbuckling peak. Unfortunately, apparently due to screenplay and budget problems, the film itself is not nearly on par with Kline’s superlative performance. Susan Sarandon does an excellent job, as well.
