      Doc gets the highest number of amazing lines, but for my money, Wyatt has both of the most badass lines: "You tell 'em I'M coming! And hell's coming with me, you hear? HELL'S COMING WITH ME!" and "You die first, get it? Your friends might get me in a rush, but not before I turn your head into a canoe, do you understand?"

    Doc has taburculosis which back then was a death sentence. He was a dentist until his clients stopped using him because of his violent coughing. He went west because of the dry heat, which his doctor recommended for his disease. He was a very good gambler which in turn caused him to be a gun fighter. He wasn't afraid of death because his days were numbered due to his disease which made him a deadly advisory. Doc knew he would die young and he took total advantage of it. A true gunslinger and badass. His story is really tragic.

    In 1887, prematurely gray and badly ailing, Holliday made his way to the Hotel Glenwood, near the hot springs of Glenwood Springs, Colorado. He hoped to take advantage of the reputed curative power of the waters, but the sulfurous fumes from the spring might have done his lungs more harm than good.  As he lay dying, Holliday is reported to have asked the nurse attending him for a shot of whiskey. When she told him no, he looked at his bootless feet, amused. The nurses said that his last words were, "This is funny." He always figured he would be killed someday with his boots on. Holliday died at 10 a.m. on November 8, 1887. He was 36. Wyatt Earp did not learn of Holliday's death until two months afterward. Kate Horony later said that she attended to him in his final days, and one contemporary source appears to corroborate her claim.

    A lot of this movie was based on truth. Doc, Wyatt and the boys really fought at OK Corral in Tombstone. You can go there and see re-enactments of the gun fight. And the fight at the creek with Curly Bill really happened too. Wyatt was shot at but never hit. Pretty remarkable. Kurt Russell named his son Wyatt. And Doc had tuberculosis which is why he moved to Tombstone to help with his breathing. They called him a “lunger”. He never thought he’d die in bed without his boots on. Thought he’d die in a gun fight, hence why he looked at his bare feet and said “that’s funny”.

    • @msdarby515
      @msdarby515 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Wyatt actually wrote to Doc and invited him to Tombstone, saying that they could use a good dentist. But it's thought that Wyatt (who wasn't quite as squeaky clean as legend portrays him) felt he and Doc could make a lot of money at the Faro tables because there was a lot of money in Tombstone. Doc basically made his living as a Faro dealer and he was pretty good at making sure he was a very lucky gambler. 😉 Doc had a lot of confrontation from cowboys who didn't like his Faro "rules" and he'd been chased all over the West.
      Both Wyatt and Doc stood trial following the o.k. Corral shooting and neither were found guilty of anything. In the trial when asked how he knew Doc Holliday Wyatt stated, “I am a friend of Doc Holliday because when I was city marshal of Dodge City, Kansas, he came to my rescue and saved my life when I was surrounded by desperadoes.”

    Arizona at this time was a territory and not a state- they would have to wait for a judge to come every 6 months - 1 year to 'try a case'. This is why the law was carried out immediately by the parties involved majority of the time. Jails at this time weren't permanent structures, and many made of adobe; there were many break outs and the criminals would go free anyway. This is why the term west of the Mississippi River was the Wild West.

    When it comes to Kate, Docs woman, she may seem like she’s killing him….. but she was helping him live. Live the way he wanted even if it meant he died sooner. He wasn’t the kind of man to take it easy and stop drinking, that’s not a life he’d want. She was perfect for him. She acted as though he wasn’t sick at all, and that’s what a man like him would want. After he collapsed and the doctor came round. He told her they had to redefine their relationship. I think he basically sent her away., releasing her to live her life.

    • @jenfries6417
      @jenfries6417 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      There's a deleted scene in which Kate and Doc argue over him going to help Wyatt fight the Cowboys while he was so sick. I've read that part is true to life - they did break up over the Cowboy war, but got back together later. Apparently, they had a pretty tempestuous relationship, but couldn't quit each other entirely, or never wanted to. She probably was the perfect partner for Doc - she nursed him through the worst but didn't try to change him. This is one of my favorite movies, but I don't like the way they minimized the roles of the women. It makes the wives come off as mere props, and paints both Josephine and Kate in a negative light. Aside from that, it's a great script, and the acting is amazing.

    Wyatt Earp was a real man. Most of the gun fights in this movie did actually happen. Some consider him a hero that tamed the west with his pistol and a shotgun. Others saw him as a cruel villain who stepped over the line without prejudice. Wyatt in all of the gunfights he had been in, was never shot once. A more historically accurate tale of this movie is called Wyatt Earp played by Kevin Costner. Also if you haven't seen dances with wolves or open range. They are both excellent westerns that'll just hook into the genre.

    As one who is older than you are, I think of "Tombstone" as among the better "new-school" westerns. I've long been a fan of the classic westerns of the 30s and 40s. One that I recommend is "Red River" (1948) with John Wayne and Montgomery Clift.

      According to lore, which is about 3/4 truth and 1/4 "embellishment", John Wayne who was an extra/stuntman in the early days of Hollywood met Wyatt Earp and then used his mannerisms and walk and talk to be the Duke that everyone loves. Even John Ford, the director of many films, approved of Wayne's direction because he was a good friend of Wyatt, too.

Hope you caught the parallel from the beginning of the movie where Ringo was quoting Revelations and the end of the movie where Wyatt told Ike that he was coming and hell is coming with him. The shot where the last 4 were riding represented the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse with Wyatt being death. Probably my top 3 favorite movies.

    It's interesting watching someone react who has no idea of the true story behind the movie, who has never heard of "the shootout at the O.K. Corral" nor Wyatt Earp and his brothers. Those of us Americans, especially us older ones who grew up on all aspects of the Wild West, both folklore and fact, appreciate the bits of the movie that made history feel more real than earlier more mythical versions. But it's good to see appreciation of a well-made movie that dealt with aspects of our past that we're not necessarily proud of, from someone with no pre-conceived ideas and just experienced it.

    This is one of the only modern westerns that I truly enjoy and rewatch on a regular basis. It had a MASSIVE all star cast, with names if not faces that you'd recognize today. I mean, Billy Bob Thornton doesn't look the same at all, and Steven Lang (Ike Clanton) just did Avatar 2. Also, it is funny how many of the main cast were also in Marvel movies or TV shows, with Bill Paxton (Morgan Earp) and Powers Boothe (Curly Bill Brocius) being in Marvel's Agents of SHIELD and having a small role in Avengers, and there were others.
    Anyway, this is in my top 5 all time favorite movies, and trust me, I've seen movies that date back to the 30's and I like a lot of old cinema! Doc (Val Kilmer) has THE best lines, and he really should have got the Oscar for his performance.

  • @ink-cow
    @ink-cow ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This movie is close enough to the truth that it becomes interesting reading and learning details, even when contradicting events in the movie. There was, for instance, actually a church burning on the day of the famous gunfight at the OK Corral. The brothers did often move together as we see in the movie. Virgil did take over as town marshal after Curly Bill shot Fred White. But it was Wyatt who testified in court that the shooting was accidental!
    Details that would derail or lengthen the story would have to be left out. For instance, when trouble really started brewing in Tombstone, Morgan sent his wife Louisa off to California to stay with her parents, so she'd be safe. So sadly they were separated when he was assassinated (which really did happen while he was playing billiards). Probably the most significant omission is that there were FOUR Earps who arrived in Tombstone. Brother James Earp was in the business of saloons and gambling houses, and never got involved with law enforcement like his brothers did. The FIFTH Earp, Warren Earp, arrived later and (unlike James) took part in hunting down the Cowboys.
    Unlike Wyatt and Virgil, Morgan was actually married to his wife. Mattie was only a common-law wife, which is why Doc asks Wyatt if he really considers himself married. Allie was Virgil's life-long companion after his first wife died, but they clearly cared for each other as much as a wedded couple (if not more), as he really did tell her "never mind, I've got one arm left to hug you with" after he was ambushed.

    The Earp's had like 8 brothers and 3 sisters. They were years older than these three...

    A simple answer tto a simple question: "Oh come on now, there weren't town like this?" YUP, there were, indeed. These were 'mining towns', built up just down the road from a silver/gold/copper mine. As the mine expanded, so did the town. As the vein of metal ran out, too,, so did the town, hence the term "ghost town". There were as many peaceable folks, as there were not-so-peaceable folks. I suggest a look into the towns of Tombstone, Deadwood, El Paso, Wichita, for starters. Every trail west from St. Louis, Missouri, is "The Olde West"!!

    Wyatt was the luckiest gunman ever. Both him and Curly had double barrel 10gauges loaded with triple aught buckshot (basically a fist-full of .32s firing at the same time), and they were 50feet from each other before Wyatt let loose both barrels. Anything at that range became ground chuck. And when he tried to ride away, his gun belt slid down his legs hobbling him around his knees. So all the while this is happening, Curly's boys kept on shooting at him. Finally, after getting his belt up, Wyatt rides back to his buddies and that's where he found his coat shredded on both sides from triple aught buck and .45s, three holes through his pants, his saddle horn sheared off, the heel of one of his boots shot off, five through the crown of his hat, and three through the brim.
    His guardian angel was working overtime that day.

    The Birdcage Theater is still open in Tombstone , Az. Doc Holliday was born in Georgia, but had to move west for his health. Your film is backward ! When Doc looks down at his feet he's laughing because Western men usually died with their boots on !! Kurt Russell actually directed the movie because the director was so inept . He did a great job. Kevin Costner did Wyatt Earp at the same time, but Tombstone wiped them out at the box office.
