    "My Wicked, Wicked Ways" was written as a joke by Flynn. He made up or exaggerated a lot of his life, though he did write two novels in his life that are just as entertaining. Part of the problem with Flynn was that he didn't see himself living long after he was diagnosed with a heart condition. That's the real reason he didn't participate in WWII, which Warners kept quiet about. He died at 50 and the coroner even made mention that this man died at 50 but has the internal organs of an eighty year old.

      I don't think it's quite a joke,but he left a lot of interesting stuff out as well and not just affairs and trysts He punched out more than one person, in fact it was several that made the papers, but not in the book..In the excellent recent book Errol Flynn The Illustrated Life Chronology with over a 1000 photos, there are pictures of him with Howard Hughes, and one with FDR. In fact he was a guest of The Roosevelt's and won a horse race. As I recall, there's nothing in his Autobiography about either one, though I read it about 30 years ago. I believe in the paperback edition there are a few chapters that were cut because Jack Warner was still alive. If so...I'll have to pick it up. Some of the best pictures of him were on the Tennis Court, and on his boat. He apparently was quite good and seemed to be having a blast. Anyway between 1935 and The Rape Trial, (he was as much The King Of Hollywood as Gable, Grant, or Cooper.)which he was found innocent and 9 women on the Jury did not believe The young Ladies.

    Bette didn't really dislike Errol. She considered him beautiful to look at. She just resented the fact that he was higher paid AND she felt he wasn't up to her level as a costar. She considered him a featherweight adventure movie hero, not an actor. (She always admired costars like Claude Rains, Paul Henreid, Henry Fonda, etc...) This outlook cost her GWTW/Scarlett. Years later, many years later and too late, she caught "The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex" and realized that she'd been wrong about his talent. She had to acknowledge that he was good and his performance held up over time.

      @@brianwalsh1401 Brian, I spent a great deal of time with Errol's closest boyhood friend in Hobart ' Don Norman'. There was strong discipline in Errol's home. He was often grounded for his mischief. And that speaks of parental care. Don once told me " if you could have harnessed Errol's energy, you could have powered the city for a year ". Errol's father Professor Theodore was in fact a real life 'Indiana Jones' and Errol was only too happy to go along for the ride.
      And indeed Errol did travel with his father by sailing ship to Sydney, and often.
      Theodore grew up in Coraki, northern NSW and then the family moved to Moruya, southern NSW. His academic prowess was becoming evident and his family moved to Newtown to ensure his scholarship education was realised. These are not the hallmarks of negligence.
      The very real problem Errol faced was his beauty. As a little boy he was so pretty he was mistaken as a girl. His young cousins in Sydney nick named him 'Girlie' Another problem was teasing in Hobart. Over lunch one day, Don was regaling the early Errol years, " he took up boxing because he had dark olive skin and the kids at school would taunt him, calling him
      " darkie". As for Errol being " left behind" you have to factor in the travel times between Australia and England. 2 months each way by sailing ship. The school curriculum did not innervate Errols mind. He spent a lot of time with his father on field trips in Tasmania encountering a real time learning experience. School was a laborious prospect after spending time around a luminary intellect like his father. Errol's genius was one of 'Living' and that he did.
      And boy, didnt he power the city ! (?) Errols youth was not conventional, granted, but he entertained the entire world. And rather than pull him apart, perhaps we should just be grateful
      that we had him at all.

    Errol is my cousin removed a few generations, so I know his family background a little bit. His maternal, great grandfather was an Irishman, a Hennessy, who was very swashbuckling in his own way as well as a rebel, (great story) his grandfather was an Australian/Irish patriot who protested a lot and his uncles were all sea Captains. My take on him is that he grew up on the stories of his great grandfather and craved a life that was full because the majority of his family, male and female, died young of heart conditions. I don't condone his treatment of women but I see, understand and admire his lust for life. ❤

    In many ways I think Flynn was self aware of his bad boy image and used it to his advantage career-wise. In his book “My Wicked, Wicked, Ways” he confesses to the awareness of his contradictory nature as a person & attributed it to his skill as an actor; while also arguing that it’s almost inherent in the Darwinian condition of humanity, but something that most people try to conceal with shame.

    Flynn's original title for his autobiography was, "In Like Me". A brilliant title, but the publisher wouldn't go for it.
    I think Flynn's finest acting was his portrayal of John Barrymore in "Too Much Too Soon". Barrymore died half-way through the flick, and that's when I walked out. Saw the first half twice more, though. Brilliant.
    Flynn died in Vancouver, BC. He had come here with Beverly Aadland to sell his yacht. He died at the Georgian Towers hotel, half a block from my apartment. That's the closest I ever got to him. sad to say. Some years later the coroner divulged that there was evidence of several bouts of VD on his, um, body.

As told by the park guides, the studios painted the leaves on the trees as they started turning brown before the filming was completed. As for Earl Flynn, according to the tourist guides, he talked some local farmers into going hunt. Geese or ducks I think it was. Anyway, the got caught by the Game Warden and given fines. Earl offered to pay everyone's fine, which was nice, but the farmers refused because that was like saying they were poor broke farmers and they would pay their own fines.

He is quoted as saying that if that was the case he would live a lifetime in those two years. This life altering diagnosis started him on the path of self destruction that led to his early demise at the age of fifty in 1959. We will never know how Flynn might have turned out if the rejection had not occurred but regardless people are still talking about him sixty some years following his death.

    From what I read, his tragic and traumatic relationship with his mother resulted in the rather tragic life he led as an adult. He hated the typecasting of Hollywood and wanted to be more than just an action hero, but he made too much money for the studios to change the formula. He had a troubled relationship with women, most likely from the memories of his mother, which led to his eventual undoing as a movie star. He was immensely talented, charismatic , and handsome, all to no avail, dead at 50.

He enjoyed beating up other actors, etc. On one occasion, he picked a fight with actor Victor Jory. Flynn didn't know it, but Jory was an accomplished boxer. According to the biography, Jory beat the hell out of Flynn. It was said that Flynn didn't pick any more fights after that episode. Flynn was really an ugly individual in many ways....

To be fair, the stuntmen on Charge Of The Light Brigade tried to pick on Flynn by shoving a lance up his horse's bum. Flynn took the stuntman to the cleaners.

      That is an excellent point. It always seemed odd to me that his mom was so cruel to him. Perhaps she was also bi-polar (not to insinuate that all people who are bi-polar are cruel to their children).

      Those are not issues from those days. Those issues began because of shots that are given to kids when their little and the PTSD condition because of shots given to the military. (That isn't to say that people don't get affected in someway when fighting in wars. But, take a good look at those that fought in the WW1 and WW2 the other times as well. Never ever heard of any of those soldiers coming back losing and utterly losing their minds. I believe that being because of the situation that Errol went through because of his mom and the abuse that he suffered at her hands shaped the way he became throughout his life. Neither parent was really there for him when he's getting shipped off to a boarding school. That's only going to increase the bad behavior. As they have said throughout the decades. Kids act out to get attention. And he was seeing just how far he could push the envelope.

    My parents were sitting next to Flynn and his enterouge at the 21 Club back in 1948. He was getting really drunk when the cigarette girl came to his table saying "cigars, cigarettes, peanuts". My father told me Flynn said, " Come here sweetheart, I'll give you some nuts"!
    My parents were leaving at the same time as Flynn. My mother was walking up the steps ahead of my father when Flynn came up behind her and grabbed my mother's ass. She told me she was startled and looked behind her to see my father falling down the steps! 😆

      Errol had a lot of close friends and they all wrote books about their time with Flynn. I knew a few of them and one is still alive and he tears up when he talks of Errol Flynn and he is 90 now
