The show was a collaboration between the Screen Directors Guild, the Hal Roach Studios and the J Walter Thompson advertising agency. In January 1956 the ''Screen Directors Playhouse'' announced they had signed Errol Flynn to play Francois Villon and it would be directed by Don Weis. Flynn made it just prior to his own show '' The Errol Flynn Theatre''.Reception
''Filmink'' magazine later wrote the episode was "more of interest as a curiosity piece than anything else but it’s not awful by any means and Errol seems engaged. The concept was actually strong enough to support a feature film."References
