- DirectorDon TaylorStarsDuncan RegehrBarbara HersheyDarren McGavinPresumably this is an adaptation of Australian actor Errol Flynn's autobiography, "My Wicked, Wicked Ways."Pretty good summary of most of his life, mostly based on his autobiography. The main downside might be that Duncan Regehr doesn't look and seem enough like Flynn, but then, who could?
- DirectorRichard GlatzerWash WestmorelandStarsJohn Hudson MesserallBrian BascleDaniel J. ClancyThe last days in the life of legendary Hollywood actor Errol Flynn.Good film starring Kevin Kline, who is good in everything, even if not particularly flattering to Flynn. This is Flynn at the end of his life.
- DirectorRussell MulcahyStarsThomas CocquerelCorey LargeWilliam MoseleyThe adventurous life of young Errol Flynn in Australia before he became a famous Hollywood actor.All about his early days in Australia starring the young Thomas Cocquerel. Flynn had something to do with a trip to New Guinea, but this seems like a largely made-up story. This is the only one that's an actual adventure film including guns and boxing. Actually based on a novel written by Flynn himself.
- DirectorFrank HowsonStarsGuy PearceSteven BerkoffClaudia KarvanA biographical movie on the film star's early life before Hollywood fame.Australian film about the early life of Errol Flynn, focusing on his time in New Guinea starring Guy Pearce in the title role. This is probably the harshest of all the views of Flynn.
