my wicked wicked ways the legend of errol flynn 1985

I eventually got to talk to someone about this film and if it was a movie or for television. I’ve been on enough movie sets to be invisible to the crew who are there to keep lookie-loos off the set. You can’t see me, I made sure that no one would talk to me and asked who I was and what I was doing. I was right there and you can see the scene in the film. I saw Duncan walk up the red carpet where he was grabbed by all the female fans. That night I wanted to asked a million questions and if I did I’d would have been thrown off the set. They had all the customes correct and I wasn’t to far from actress Lee Purcell, who at the time I did’t know her, today we are very good friends and she was on my radio show. I couldn’t believe that someone was making a film on Errol Flynn. I slowly worked my way up to where the camera crew was. I pulled over and parked my car and ran over to where all the extra’s were and asked a few questions.

That night I was driving down Hollywood Blvd and at the Chinese theater, there was this HUGE BANNER and It read, CAPTAIN BLOOD, I couldn’t believe it and I had no idea what was going on, except someone was shooting a movie about the Premire of Captain Blood. I worked on Hollywood Blvd and since it was that early in the morning and I was wide away, I always drove down sunset to Laurel Cyn up to Mulholland and go by Flynn’s on the way home.

One night around 3 am I got out of work in one of the many post-production video duplication houses I worked in here in Hollywood. It was a great effort all around and I recently watched it on you tube and I liked it even more then the first time. The film wasn’t the greatest written script but then again how can you capture Errol’s own words from My Wicked Wicked Ways and stuff them into a two hour teleplay. However, I was impressed with his look and manerisms, he did the best with what he had, even with the mustache in BLOOD.

First, I want to say this was the very frist film ever done about Errol Flynn and I felt Duncan did a hell of a job in his protrayal of Errol, which to capture Errol Flynn as an actor is almost an impossiblity. I have an interesting experience with this film.
