Errol Leslie Thomson Flynn (20 June 1909 – 14 October 1959) was an Australian-American actor. He was known for his romantic swashbuckler roles in Hollywood films.
Flynn was born in Hobart, Tasmania, where his father, Theodore Thomson Flynn, was a lecturer (1909) and later professor (1911) of biology at the University of Tasmania. Flynn was born at the Queen Alexandra Hospital in Battery Point. His mother was born Lily Mary Young, but dropped the first names Lily Mary shortly after she was married and changed her name to Marelle. Flynn described his mother's family as "seafaring folk" and this appears to be where his lifelong interest in boats and the sea originated. Despite Flynn's claims, the evidence indicates that he was not descended from any of the Bounty mutineers. Married at St. John's Church of England, Birchgrove, Sydney, on 23 January 1909, both of his parents were native-born Australians of Irish, English and Scottish descent.
After early schooling in Hobart, from 1923 to 1925 Flynn was educated at the South West London College, a private boarding school in Barnes, London, and in 1926 returned to Australia to attend Sydney Church of England Grammar School (Shore School) where he was the classmate of a future Australian prime minister, John Gorton. He concluded his formal education with being expelled from Shore for theft, and—according to his own account—having been caught in a romantic assignation with the school's laundress. After being dismissed from a job as a junior clerk with a Sydney shipping company for pilfering petty cash, he went to Papua New Guinea at the age of eighteen, seeking and failing to find his fortune in tobacco planting and metals mining. He spent the next five years oscillating between the New Guinea frontier territory and Sydney.

Plot: The Last of Robin Hood is the true story of Beverly Aadland, a teen starlet who became the last girlfriend of legendary swashbuckler Errol Flynn. In 1957, Beverly was working at Warner Brothers studios with a fake birth certificate saying she was 18 -- she was in fact, only 15 -- when she encountered the former matinée idol. After a bumpy start, the two undertook a relationship that was ultimately embraced by Beverly's Hollywood mother Florence, who became a willing third wheel. The affair took them from L.A. to New York to Africa, then to Cuba where Flynn pitched in with the rebels to make a pro-Castro propaganda movie starring Beverly. It all came crashing to an end in Vancouver, however, when Flynn died in Beverly's arms, causing an avalanche of publicity; Florence finally achieved the attention she sought in the form of tabloid notoriety but the chaos drove Beverly to the edge of sanity. The Last of Robin Hood is a poignant yet darkly comic coming-of-age tale about the desire for fame and the price it exacts.

While her loved ones desperately search for her, Posey finds herself in the middle of a unique situation...one that will change her outlook on life and her future in a profound way.

Tragically he was dead from the effects of drugs and alcohol by the time he was only 50 & the myths live on.

MYSTERY GUEST: Errol Flynn [film actor, best remembered for his portrayal of Robin Hood] PANEL: Dorothy Kilgallen, Martin Gabel, Arlene Francis, Bennett Cerf
Istanbul (1957) is one of the great Errol Flynn's rarest films. It was a remake of the Fred MacMurray/Ava Gardner film Singapore (1947). Istanbul co-stars Cornell Borchers and has appearances by Nat King Cole, Werner Klemperer and Leif Erickson. Istanbul was one of Errol Flynn's final films (Errol died just two years after this film was released), it was filmed in Istanbul, Turkey and was also Errol's first film to be produced by a Hollywood studio in years. By far Istanbul is not one of Errol's best films, but yet not his worst. I felt this film was very hard to find and decided to share it with other Errol Flynn fans. Please enjoy the film. I do not own the copyright to this film, this film is posted for fans by a fan.

The heroic Swashbuckler suffering the effects of drink, aged before his time on TV in one of his last interviews at the ripe old age of 50 on a Canadian tv interview conducted in Vancouver shortly before his death, here presented with a splash of colour and a soft piano tinkle befitting the great screen legend. Flynn today is politically considered an extreme leftist by some, yet also it had been reported he worked for the Nazi's only a few years earlier, all have proven to be only unfounded rumors. It is more likely he was suffering from the long term effects of alcohol and drug use, He aged prematurely and died young apparently unaware of his own deterioration on and off camera Flynn, a man lost and at deaths door from a life lived 10 times in one, yet this one man, the greatest Ro...

The Errol Flynns were a criminal organization, or street gang, founded on the lower east side of Detroit, Michigan during the 1970s. Reportedly, the gang appropriated their name from the Hollywood film star Errol Flynn because they fashioned themselves as flamboyant gangsters in dress. Also, they used ‘gangsta jits’, or hand signs to identify themselves publicly.
