I’m back posting now after a lovely holiday and would like to thank Mike for sending in a great colour publicity still of Richard Todd as Robin Hood from the Disney live-action movie.
Good to hear that you had a lovely holiday, Clement. Where did you get to ? Back to this publicity still, when this film was first released on video, one of the pictures on the sleeve was of Richard Todd in the same outfit sitting on that log so there must have been a few photographs taken in the studio at the time. There are many still as we all know from the film so Walt Disney must have used these for advance publicity maybe. I wonder if he would have thought that we would be so interested in all aspects of his film so many years later.
Sounds Wonderful !! Whatever we do can almost always be linked back to our film - and it seems to me you would have been in the Treasure Island area on your cruise thus emulating the film Walt Disney made before Robin Hood and again with Denham standing in for the location of the island. Very good too. I hope they screened The Story of Robin Hood at their cruise liner cinema - that would have been very appropriate if a little unlikely. Anyway Congratulations and Good Wishes for the future.

Only a few films capture the imagination and create a following , Walt Disney seems to have the lions share, welcome back clement
Thanks guys! Back from a Caribbean Cruise to celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary. It was a fabulous holiday.
