Flynn and his one-time partner in crime David Niven, who is back on screens this afternoon in Death on the Nile, had two of the biggest sexual drives in Hollywood. The phrase "in like Flynn" is commonly believe to have been inspired by the heartthrob Australian actor. It means "having quickly or easily achieved a goal or gained access as desired" usually related to sexual advances.
