Chicago – The story of Sean Flynn – son of the legendary Errol Flynn, perpetrator of B-movies in the early 1960s, game warden in Kenya and finally war correspondent during the Vietnam conflict – would rate enough material for a 10-hour mini-series. Only his disappearance is covered in “The Road to Freedom.”
Rating: 2.5/5.0
Flynn, who famously first came to light during a vicious custody battle between his mother Lili Damita and father Errol Flynn, probably deserves a better narrative treatment than the soft soap that is “The Road to Freedom.” He is written and portrayed rather blandly, and the road he does travel as a reporter in war-torn Cambodia is paved with what looks like the same five soldiers of the Khmer Rouge regime.
Joshua Fredric Smith portrays Flynn, who is characterized by his roguish looks and reporter’s instinct. It is learned that he will go the extra mile to get the story,...

A film inspired by the lifestory of Errol Flynn's slain photojournalist son Sean is to premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in France next month.
The remains of Sean Flynn are believed to be among those recently uncovered in a mass grave in Cambodia - 30 years after he and a colleague went missing.
The two photographers were covering the Cambodian War for Time magazine when they were believed to have been captured by Khmer Rouge guerrillas.
Motivated by Flynn's story, 21-year-old Brendan Moriarty wrote, produced and directed the war adventure drama, The Road To Freedom, which was shot in Cambodia last year.
Moriarty, who grew up in Cambodia, tells WENN, "I was moved by true tales of these brave journalists who disappeared. People will never remember them if someone doesn’t tell their stories."
The film will have a screening in Los Angeles on 27 April before its world premiere at Cannes.
Meanwhile, forensic experts are testing bones believed to be the remains of Sean Flynn.
