Remembered as much for his scandals as his acting, there was another side to Errol: writer, war reporter and even devoted family man. THREE PARAGRAPH SYNOPSIS Tasmanian Devil: The Fast and Furious Life of Errol Flynn Fifty years after his death, people are still fascinated by Errol Flynn. The romantic star of dozens of Hollywood movies, Flynn’s real life was in fact far more adventurous than any of his films. In a life dedicated to the pursuit of pleasure, Flynn became notorious for his love affairs, scandals and rebellious nature. But there was another, much less well known side to his character. He was a fine writer, both of novels and journalism, wrote well reviewed novels and reported from wars and revolutions. Among his scoops was the first interview with the newly victorious Fidel Castro who Flynn tracked down in his mountain hideaway in Cuba. In Tasmanian Devil we discover the unknown Flynn, from his troubled childhood in Tasmania to his death, just fifty years later, in the arms of his teenage lover. We hear from his surviving children, friends and colleagues and discover an amazing life of almost unbelievable events.

    21-26. Hollywood UK

    Journal of American Studies of Turkey 2 (1995): 21-26. Hollywood UK: UK's Hollywood Laurence Raw [email protected] This paper examines first what 'Hollywood UK' meant--particularly during the first four decades of this century. It looks at the British community of actors, the kinds of roles they played in Hollywood, both on and off screen, and how they conformed to traditional stereotypes of the British, to satisfy the demands of both the studios and the film publicity magazines. The paper subsequently examines how America (and the Americans) have been represented in British films. It is worthwhile saying at the outset that more attention is paid to the image of Britain in American films than vice versa--chiefly because there are far more films to choose from, but also because many films which are described as 'British' in reference- books have been made by major American studios in Britain with American money. Thus it is often very difficult to identify an authentically 'British' film. In the 1920s, 30s and 40s, during the "Golden Age" of Hollywood (i.e., the pre- television period), the four major studios--Metro-Goldwyn Mayer, Twentieth- Century Fox, Universal, Paramount and Columbia--churned out film after film, using actors and directors who were for the most part under contract to each individual studio. This was a time when Hollywood was perceived as the ultimate dream factory, providing entertainment which would enable audiences to forget their troubles in the cinema for a few hours. (The 1930s constituted the period of the Great Depression in America and Europe.) Studio publicity departments reinforced this notion of escapism by feeding a stream of 'happy family' stories to newspapers and magazines, while doing their best to suppress any possibilities of scandal.
