My Wicked, Wicked Ways was ghostwritten by Earl Conrad. Flynn’s 15 year old girlfriend at the time of his death was controversial, but in a different context to it is now.

The Nazi spy claim, originally made by a mediocre author and Flynn Hater called Charles Higham in his ludicrous book, ''Errol Flynn, The Untold Story,'' was later completely debunked by Flynn buff and friend Tony Thomas in his brilliant work, ''Errol Flynn, the Spy Who Never Was.'' Flynn was a highly complex and intelligent man who, due to his amazing good looks and riveting personality, never had to strive too hard for anything, everything came easy for him. He lived his own life and wrung every ounce of pleasure from it he could. For a deeper insight into his true personality, read ''Errol Flynn, a Memoir,'' by Earl Conrad who spent many months with Flynn ghost-writing his best-selling autobiography, ''My Wicked Wicked Ways.''

All Errol Flynn s so called flaws make him all the more complex and so very compelling . Not only a good actor ,he fenced ,rode horses ,boxed ,danced ,sang ,wrote , captained ships and lived his life to the full .Certainly not a shallow man ,he knew how to enjoy life .He was so full of drive and a passion for life ,dispite how incredibly damaged his internal organs were . What life force energy ! What a man !

That's true. Almost all the greats had some character flaw, Gable and Wayne were great,but chainsmokers and functioning Alcoholics for example, so except Jimmy StewartJames Cagney and a few other notables , so all you have are the films. It seems prissy and small minded. As some 18 year old Joe Blow Nerd who has never done anything much except pull his pud in Poughkeepsie, is going to judge Errol Flynn, and act like I know exactly how this guy was.

Though he seemed pretty pleasant most of the time as a character.. Most of us would want to be dead if you drank as much as him. In his prime there was no one more handsome, more interesting and so forth.

Flynn even stated that his book, "My Wicked, Wicked Ways": was all made up as a joke. I love that this man is so outrageously portrayed. This man lived a life that I bet a lot of men wish they could live even dying by 50. Barrymore lived the same lifestyle - but he made it to 60. That Barrymore story is so repeated but not at all true. His best friend, Gene Fowler and his son, Will, spent all night at Pierce Bros Funeral home. "In Like Flynn" came to be after the rape trial. The meaning was more about being against the odds you win - not about females in general.

He got his citizenship in the US because of the Sedition Act in the USA not allowing ships longer than 100ft to be owned by foreign nationals. He had tuberculosis, venereal disease and an enlarged heart when he got called up in the 1940's. He was pushed by Jack Warner to do public service announcements and support the war effort via the studio, whilst stateside to keep the bad press away (or white feathers out of their mail room)
