I just watched the Errol Flynn Robin hood from 1938. Its restored in color in the blu ray version. Its amazing how cocky he was on screen. He walks into enemy stronghold himself, eats their food, than kills 20 soldiers in the kings castle. What's even more surprising is his life story. Check out the bio I posted from IMDB. 3 convictions of statutory rape. Great quotes too.

Women won't let me stay single, and I won't let myself stay married.

His last girlfriend before he died was 15. He was around 50 than.

Yep, he was Alpha.

There is an Australian expression called "In like Flynn", used as a statement declaring a successful pursuit, but originating from picking up (pursuing) a woman.

Everyone knew when it came to women, Flynn knew how to get in.

Has some great truths in there.

1. Alpha lasts a lifetime in a woman's mind. (Aadland still in love with Flynn)
2. Jealousy revives relationships (Flynn's ex wanted to get back together when she finds out about Flynn's new love)
3. Non-consensual sex is not necessarily an impediment to a woman's love; it can be a contributor. (Flynn's first bout of sex with Aadland was not strictly consensual; the book Sperm Wars cited a survey that found that of women who experienced a date rape attempt, women who had been "successfully" date raped were much more likely to have continued dating the man in question, than the women who had not been "successfully" date raped.)
4. Youth and chastity can drive a man to love; they can trump all else, even, perhaps especially, for the man who has had it all. (Flynn could and did sleep with far more attractive women than Aadland.)

Great breakdown of the article. ALthough date rape now carries a far greater risk, FRA especially if your not as alpha as he was.
