Errol Flynn by Peter Valenti Peter Valenti presents an objective evaluation of Flynn's impact on both American popular culture and the development of motion pictures. The book begins with a brief biography of the actor, followed by a complete history of his screen, radio, and television career, an annotated guide to popular and scholarly materials on Flynn, and a bibliography of his own writings and the publications in which they appeared. Valenti ends with a series of personal interviews held with Flynn at various points in his often infamous career. This is the official Errol Flynn Website, hosted by Flynn's daughter and grandsons.
Site includes quotes, posters, filmography, and related links.
In his lifetime, Errol Flynn received no recognition from his peers at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. He never attended a ceremony in his honor and was not nominated. Could be that his screen persona, the swashbuckler, the rake, stuck to him too well. His autobiography suggests he had strong sexual appetite. It does not leave one with the impression, however, that he self-identified as a gay man.
