Errol Flynn: The Movie Posters
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Lawrence Bassoff is clearly a man of passion--for great movie posters in general, and of Errol Flynn's in particular. Bassoff has amassed a definitive collection of Flynn's film posters and one-sheets, and the resulting book is a wonderful glimpse at the long and sometimes sketchy career of one of the century's greatest actors. There are impressive spreads of full-color posters for Flynn's legendary leading-man vehicles, including 14 separate entries for The Adventures of Robin Hood and eight for Adventures of Don Juan. But as Flynn's star began to fade in the early '50s, and as his battle with alcohol was slowly being lost, the films leaned toward the pirate trifle Against All Flags and the amateurishly cheesy Cuban Rebel Girls. Accompanying the impressive poster collection is Bassoff's concise, affectionate film criticism, which makes for satisfying reading for any film fan. --Anne Hurley
