Incredible movie and one of my favorites but historically accurate? Barely. The movie makes the relationship between the Earps and the Cowboys very black-and-white. It wasn’t so much good versus evil in real life. In real life the Earps and doc Holliday were some real tough dudes that would go around shaking down the Cowboys and taking their horses from them and their money etc. they were kind of like the equivalent of a group of corrupt cops. Of course Hollywood has to make it seem like heroes vs villains but in real life it was much more grey. And Wyatt was known as a dude that would shoot you no hesitation. They were all outlaws in a sense regardless of the badge. Either way what makes the story so bad ass is that a small group of guys had the balls to stand up to a whole gang of dudes that everyone in town was afraid of. True men
Accurate in explaining the characters, none of these guys are the good guys. They are people trying to get rich but just need to do some cleaning up in the process.
God this so true -these 2giant actors got robbed, got robbed of an Oscar for sure. Tom Hardy 1st scene in revenant thought for sure he was from Kentucky or somewhere from the south did not realize it was Tom hardy -Val Kilmer was just plain and simple Doc Holiday no other actor could have played this part the death scene when he begs Wyatt to leave breaks my heart everytime unbelievable acting -all of them but these were outstanding performance’s Kurt Russell owned his part as Wyatt.
Well, I was asking myself the same thing after seeing that movie - he did not even get a nomination, did he? I just jknow he's been said not to be the easiest person to work with (though he did seem to get along nicely with Ron Howard and took a meagre salary just to play a bit part in one of his movies once) and he may have been just too outspoken for the taste of some people...Which does not mean he has an abrasive personality - I only ever saw one interview with him and he actually came across as rather awkward, even socially anxious, which is totally what I had not expected. He was also excellent playing Jim Morrison in The Doors; some of the band who had worked as consultants on the set had said they's even confused him with the real Jim Morrison. And again he did not even get a nomination even though playing a lead in a biopic is usually a surefire way to getting at least nominated. And Kilmer has got that quality which many former Julliard students have (and he was the youngest ever to get accepted in his time! ) - that intensity, the commitment and that command of his xraft, and yet it all seems to look so easy for them! Just look at people like Kevin Kline, Oscar Issac or Adam Driver - Julliard graduates too, and they all have the same quality. Even that actor who ended up playing Michael Eddington in DS9 (I've forgotten his name now) who is just excellent and just had a bad start as far I am concerned Well there are actors who have a lobby (and even get set up in movies which are actually " Oscar bait") and there are actors who do not. Getting an nOscar has a lot to do with that, and sometimes only marginally with your ability. There are some Oscar wins where I honestly asked myself what the Academy had been thinking for even nominating them...
It literally didn't deserve any of those awards. Compare this to the previous year's masterpiece, Unforgiven, which did win at the Academy, if you want to see what a real quality western film looks like. Tombstone is laughably overrated.
Big Nose Kate Kate was the eldest of eleven children of the doctor Michael Haroney and his second wife Katharina Baldizar Haroney. She received extensive training, so she mastered Hungarian, French, Spanish and English. From 1862, her father was the personal physician of the future Mexican Emperor Maximilian I. She lived in Mexico City until 1865. Her mother died on March 26, 1865, and her father two months later. The remaining family fled after Maximilian's disempowerment and execution in 1867 to Davenport, Iowa.
What exactly do you think makes this film so great? Merely the fact that it had a lot of famous actors cast in it? Aside from Val Kilmer and Stephen Lang, they were all extremely amateur and forgettable. The plot was laughable and had so many continuity issues and feeble story structure it was painful. The soundtrack sounded like something straight out of Titanic - not at all fitting for a western score. And the dialogue was some of the most inauthentic vernacular I have ever heard in the western film genre. There are so many westerns that absolutely wipe the floor with Tombstone. Examples include Unforgiven, The Outlaw Josey Wales, 3: 10 to Yuma, The Dollars Trilogy, Once Upon a Time in the West, the list goes on. I seriously have to question how many quality westerns, or for that matter, quality _films_ people who like Tombstone have actually seen. My guess would be not many.
Oh and I also like it because the main theme is a clever "Western-ized" variation on Wild Mountain Thyme (a Scottish song), which comes through a couple times in the film. Film composers should never be afraid to use classic tunes, especially if they come from the setting of the film. Old Scots folksongs would've likely made it out west long before Earp's time, becoming part of American music. Anyway, I grew up with the song in Texas.
Julius Young the score of this film fits various mood scenes perfectly. With this segment it sounds intense, but the facial expressions the walk rhythms and how the camera zigzags between the four of them I have to wonder with in reason what happened with movies from the 90s to at least half way thru the mid 2000s?
Many have said that Val Kilmer captured all of Doc Holliday's mannerisms/behaviors perfectly. He did such a phenomenal job. I agree. This version of Tombstone is my favorite. I love westerns.
Doc Holiday was diagnosed with Terberculoisis which back then was a death sentence. What did he do? Headed West, walked into every saloon drunk as Hell and dared anyone to kill him. Truth is you DON'T want to fight someone like that. BUT you want them on your side.
@@prophetic0311 not really giving a crap but will make a memory of all those around if you were to challenge him, including assaulting any close friend. I'm a law and order type. So Wyatt rocks. Wish we had thousands of them right now. Grab one of those looters by the ear and tell all the other thugs around that try to reacue their criminal friend that he'll stand trial for it and throw their ass in jail.
@James Scott I see a doo rag I kill the thug wearing it! I see baggie pants hung down below the ass I kill the thug wearing it! I see a totally corrupt politician that's bringing our country to the brink of a civil race war, I kill the politician pushing for it. I see a looter exit a store with arms full of loot, I kill the thief on sight. That would be the new Wyatt Earp today.
May i add that Robert Mitchum was absolutely perfect for narrating the beginning and ending of the movie; his voice gave authenticity to the entire storyline. Val Kilmer played the death of Holliday so sharp; his friendship was sealed w Earp.
King Yusafa Unforgiven in 1992 was my first western movie followed by this one the following year. But between the confrontational score and the train killing scene, some memories have come back to me that were buried for years after seeing it a few more times. This scene I think had the same score with the actual sequence, but that detail comes and goes. Long commentary short, too late! It's one of my favorites, historically accurate or not, cause they likely added or changed certain events. Remember folks, this is a movie
Wyatt Earp's legacy continued in the film industry. Aside from Tom Mix he also befriended and inspired a young 15 yr old stage hand that acted part time. They had many a conversation in the studio commissary over coffee. That 15 yr olds name......Marion Morrison aka John Wayne.
Val Kilmer should've got an Oscar for this. Great movie. My favourite Western ever was Gunfight at The OK Corral with Burt Lancaster and Kirk Douglas but this movie is right up there. What a cast, fabulous theme song and also Charlton Heston was in it.
The ending scene when this song starts is one of the best credits I have seen in movies. And also one of best western movies I've seen. Top 5 at least.
@@kyleshiflet9952 Despite the loss of his arm Virgil Earp went on to have a successful law enforcement career serving as a Sheriff in California. You can't ask for anything more badass then that.
This may be the best movie made about Wyatt Earp. The main theme song as well as the music played in the scenes with Dana Delany and Kurt Russell are terrific! Kurt Russell was fantastic as Wyatt.
Incredible movie!!! If you haven't seen it, in it's entirety, do yourself a favor and SEE IT....SOON, and see it more than once!! Everything about it was absolutely amazing!
Excellent theme! Mr. Broughton is definitely up there with the greats like Dimitri Tiomkin, Victor Young, John Green, Erich Wolfgang Korngold, Miklos Rozsa, Max Steiner, Alfred Newman, Elmer Bernstein and Henry Mancini.
When I was a kid, I used to sit up until late at night using my family tape recorder and record myself doing lines from this movie-- I had seen it so many times that I knew every word. Val Kilmer's Doc Holliday was my first real on screen idol, and I'll never forget this awesome movie for that ❤️
+TheGroundedAviator And deserts are, of course, quite dry--insanely low humidity. You can get away with wearing that in Arizona and Texas...but heaven help you if you try it in Florida!
It isn't even close to being phenomenal. It has some of the worst dialogue of any western film I've ever seen. The performances are at many times cringeworthy and almost entirely forgettable aside from Val Kilmer and Stephen Lang. The story structure is poor and the cinematography is extremely ametuer. And there are enough continuity issues to make your head spin. I seriously don't know how many westerns you've seen but if you think Tombstone is phenomenal, or that the performances of these actors in this film alone make them in any way worthy of being considered among "the most badass men in western history", then I would suggest you watch more westerns.
@@KameWeeb that's not surprising. There's a reason why Tombstone is referred to by many as "the western for people who don't get into westerns", which in my view doesn't speak highly for the film. It's more of a poorly directed soap opera than a western.
I've travelled to the West 45 times from the UK. I have criss-crossed it in every direction. Not one moment of it has ever disappointed or bored me. Quite the reverse. The experience is of total exhilaration. This music and the movie encapsulates the experience perfectly. If it wasn't for the fact I am flying to Denver in a fortnight at the time of writing for five more weeks on the road I'd have to go and book more flights as soon as I played this. On the dash I stick an 1879 dollar which has travelled with me on every trip over tens of thousands of miles from Tombstone to Helena and Denver to Boise, well worn from its time in the Old West, just like the ones Doc Holliday twists through his fingers.
I think that was supposed to be the original shot of the 4 characters making their way to meet the cowboys, at the OK Corral. But, I guess they decided it was not entirely possible to film the entire walk, showdown and gun fight, all in one steady shot. But, I'm glad that this sequence didn't end up on the cutting room floor. Using it for the end credits along with the musical score, is epic!
I remember this movie best for its theme -- the musical embodiment of Justice arriving to clean house -- and for the most spine-chilling lines I've ever heard in any Western. "YOU TELL THEM I'M COMING! AND HELL'S COMING WITH ME, YOU HEAR? *HELL'S COMING WITH ME!"*
Val Kilmer should've gotten an Oscar for this performance.
agreed!
hands down noo question!
100% agreed
I loved the imitation when he's flinging the cup around his finger mocking Ringo. So awesome
no question!!!! he carried this movie epically!
My dads favorite movie. We always watched this together. Miss you dad.
They make walking down the street so badass.
Wyatt Walker I'm your huckleberry
The end of 'Wild Bunch' is still unsurpassed.
@Pamela Mayyea this is definitely more entertaining n Hollywood, Costner's version is meant to be more factual
Sam Elliot has the best walk then Val. The other two aren't as smooth lol
@Pamela May he had throat cancer yes but Tombstone came out in 93 n he got cancer around 2015
One of the greatest and most accurate westerns ever made. I grew up with this movie and it never gets old.
Great maybe, accurate Hell NO!!!
@@MrJimmy3459 it’s fairly historically accurate per Wyatt Earp’s account. Obviously some dramatic liberties

Two biggest snubs for best support supporting actor in history:
- Tom Hardy in the Revenant
- Val Kilmer in Tombstone

Ralph Fiennes at this time was a bigger snub in my opinion.
Willem Dafoe in Lighthouse and his performance as The Green Goblin as well

I remember this movie best for its theme -- the musical embodiment of Justice arriving to clean house -- and for the most spine-chilling lines I've ever heard in any Western. "YOU TELL THEM I'M COMING! AND HELL'S COMING WITH ME, YOU HEAR? *HELL'S COMING WITH ME!"*
I love this film, I watch it all the time!
When Red Dead Online goes live.
Why is that so true though
Lol I actually made my character in Red Dead online look like the Val Kilmer Doc Holliday
Such an underrated movie. Great theme too.
Actually it's such an overrated movie. Other than Kilmer there was hardly any redeeming quality to it.
