00:00No, Hollywood star adventurer isn't planning to enter a physical culture contest, he's

00:15just getting ready for a very unusual and strenuous role, because in his first modern

00:19romantic comedy, Errol Flynn has to portray the world's most perfect man.

00:23What a part.

00:24He's the heir to 20 million dollars, who's been raised by his eccentric grandfather to

00:27be the physical, mental, and moral superior of his fellow men.

00:30Yowza, he fights like Dempsey, speaks seven languages, races a car like Barney Oldfield,

00:36and he even knows how to cook.

00:37He's a master mechanic and a master at everything else, but believe it or not girls, he's never

00:42had a date.

00:43Look out before it's too late, because here comes trouble.

00:53This is the little lady who's made up her mind to make a perfect wreck out of the perfect

00:56specimen.

00:57Joan Blondella, when she starts Errol Flynn how to misbehave, it's perfect fun.

01:01Have you ever been tight?

01:03Of course not.

01:04Ever see a burlesque show?

01:06Certainly not.

01:07Ever kiss a girl?

01:09Now listen young lady, don't you start anything.

01:11I can't afford to be compromised.

01:12What is it, Gretel?

01:13What's the matter with you?

01:14As a matter of fact, Gerald has disappeared.

01:15Have you looked?

01:16I give you my word, we've searched this estate with a grappling, with a rake, with one of

01:23those curry combs, and we cannot find him.

01:25How?

01:26He's been kidnapped.

01:27That's what.

01:28Do something.

01:29Telephone the G Men or whatever their ridiculous names are.

01:34Call the police.

01:35The police, of course, the police.

01:55Let go of me will you?

01:56Listen, will you stay with me?

01:58Hey, what's the idea, you punk?

02:01Oh, I beg your pardon, we were just...

02:02What's your idea, you big ape? You drove us off the road, didn't you?

02:05Stay out of this. You ain't the first thing I ever smacked.

02:08Oh, really, my good man, you can't talk to a lady like that, you know.

02:11Don't you, my good man, me a squirt. Come on, get out of there.

02:15You're making a big mistake, you know.

02:17Get out of there.

02:18Oh, Nick.

02:19There's something you could do for me if you'd care.

02:20Oh, anything, anything at all.

02:21I was wondering if you could cash a check for me.

02:24Oh, sure. Anything up to $50, sure.

02:26I keep a supply on hand for the tourists.

02:28Their checks don't turn out so very good, they bounce back.

02:30But it's a weakness of mine.

02:31I have a rubber stamp marked not sufficient funds.

02:33It saves me the trouble of sending it to the bank.

02:35Oh, yeah.

02:36And I like to keep these just to write poetry on the back.

02:39The first thing you've got to get into your head is you're marrying me.

02:41Do you understand?

02:42No, I'm not.

02:43I wouldn't marry you if you were the last man in the world.

02:45Last man in the world. Well, you are.

02:46Well, I'm not.

02:54I'm not.
