Wyatt Earp FRONTIER MARSHAL 1939 Randolph Scott as Wyatt! Cesar Romero as Doc! FREE Western Classic

- FRONTIER MARSHAL, the first authorized film version of Wyatt Earp, and the legendary gunfight at the O.K. Corral, stars Randolph Scott as Wyatt Earp and Cesar Romero as Doc Holliday.
The 1939 western movie is based on Stuart N. Lake’s book, WYATT EARP, FRONTIER MARSHAL, published in 1931. Lake had spent time interviewing Earp, and his book created the legend that we know today. Not only was Lake's biography the basis for FRONTIER MARSHAL (1939) starring Randolph Scott, but the book has also been used for subsequent films about the peacemaker, including John Ford’s remake, MY DARLING CLEMENTINE (1946), and later GUNFIGHT AT THE O.K. CORRAL (1957), TOMBSTONE (1993), WYATT EARP (1994) and the Hugh O’Brian TV series, THE LIFE AND LEGEND OF WYATT EARP, done in 1955, which had the still living Stuart Lake as a consultant.
Randolph Scott makes a pretty good Wyatt, and there are those who think that Cesar Romero’s Doc (“Halliday” in this film, and a surgeon, not a dentist?) was even better than Victor Mature in MY DARLING CLEMENTINE. I always find it interesting to compare remakes, and the Ford/Dwan comparison is a doozy. At 71 minutes, FRONTIER MARSHAL moves right along as director Allan Dwan was not given the running time, or budget, that Ford was able to spend on atmosphere, locations, and deeper characterizations.
Actor Ward Bond is in both versions. In FRONTIER MARSHAL and, seven years later, MY DARLING CLEMENTINE. Bond is the ineffective town Marshal in this one and Morgan Earp in the later version, which delves more deeply into family bonds and the rivalry between the Earps and Clantons. Actor Charlie Stevens, falsely publicized for years as the grandson of Geronimo, has the role of “Indian Charley” in both versions and in RKO’s “Tombstone: The Town Too Tough to Die” with Richard Dix. I can’t deny that Ford was very influenced by this film. It has many of the same inaccuracies.
The rest of the cast lifts this version to A-movie status, even without the magnificent Monument Valley landscape. Binnie Barnes is Doc’s prostitute girlfriend and much less childish than Linda Darnell was in the Ford version. Alan Mowbray’s Shakespearean actor is missing, but instead, we have Eddie Foy Jr. portraying his real-life father as a traveling entertainer and Nancy Kelly as Sarah Allen.
The trio of bad guys in FRONTIER MARSHALL are a special gang of villains. There's John Carradine who runs things as a saloon owner, Lon Chaney, Jr. who has a run-in with Doc, and Joe Sawyer as Curly Bill. You’ll spot a familiar array of western veterans like Chris-Pin Martin (who had been Cisco Kid’s sidekick to Cesar Romero’s Cisco), Richard Alexander, Edward Norris, Hank Bell, Si Jenks, and former B western leading man Tom Tyler.
While most of the film takes place in the town of Tombstone, at night, there are several sequences shot at…you guessed it, the Alabama Hills of Lone Pine, CA.
In 1931 a film based on a fictional novel about Earp’s exploits by W.R. Burnett, with a script by a young John Huston, was made starring Walter Huston and Harry Carey Sr called LAW AND ORDER. However, that film did not use the Earp or Holiday names, which makes FRONTIER MARSHAL the first to showcase their fame. There is action and quite a few laughs in store for you. There have been many variations on film of Wyatt Earp and let’s hope there will be more quality movies depicting his exploits in years to come. Enjoy FRONTIER MARSHAL. Thanks for watching.

I grew up on these wonderful westerns. They made made me happy and adventurous. Caesar Romero was the smoothest and best looking dude in the movies back then - not to mention one of the best actors by far. These old classics were so well crafted and realistic that special effects were unnecessary. They were literally spellbinding and there was virtually no such thing as a "flop". ALL those old black and whites were literally works of art created by true Masters of the craft. 🙂
ROGERS + WAYNE + AUTRY + SCOTT + MOST ALL 1940~90s WESTERN MOVIES Have Seen Forever.! TEXANS STAYS ON Many Western Country Avenues .....
Caesar Romero was also a very slick dancer.
Another great film with Randolph Scott
Being a big time fan of Randolph Scott for several decades, I remember watching this one, but just barely; it was so long ago. Certainly enjoyed being able to see it again. Thanks 🙏🏽
Any film with Randolph Scott in Is awesome wonderful actor...
Both Victor and Cesar are great in their respective rolls! Love both movies!!
Great western Randolph Scott is a real gentleman, from virginia, he made a lot of great films with tyrone power, and errol flynn, thanks lord Rob Word of Word on Westerns laird of Word manor your friend tom now and always 😊😊😊
Thanks for putting this on. Great movie everyone should see. Ward Bond also one of my all time favorites. Cesar Romaero.....All these guys young....so great to see.
PS sorry for the typo lol
I agree I think cesar Romero is excellent. Thanks rob for showing these movies.
That is a great story of Doc and Wyatt. Randolph was so young.
1939 What a great year for movies 😊
Ward Bond, John Carradine, Joe Sawyer - all members of John Ford's "Stock Company."
on a book on john ford,he screened FRONTIER MARSHALL 1939,while was preparing MY DARLING CLEMINTINE in 1945.you notice at the beginning john carradine says he got run out of lordsburg.in STAGECOACH 1939,he was going to lordsburg.charles stevens who plays indian charlie,plays the same role in MY DARLING CLEMINTINE 1946.
Love his movies one of the best cowboy. To this day I’m watching his western show. Good job Rob. I even went to Georgia tech here in Atlanta for while where Scott went.
Dual In the Sun and One Eyed Jacks were excellent too.
Discovered Randolph Scott about 5 years ago. Really like his movies. I liked that a lot of them were shot in color. I love black and white but really old movies shot in technicolor like Jessie James (1939) with Tyrone Power are a lot of fun. I haven't seen this one yet but my favorite version of this story (so far) is My Darling Clementine with Henry Fonda. Thanks for posting! (nice job on the up-convert ; )
watch WESTRN UNION 1941,great technicolor western with randy scott as an outlaw,the good bad man.
Pity he was Gay
⁰
@@elchoya8432watch also Colt 45, another western in technicolor, with a good amount of violence for a Scott film.
Absolutely fabulous- Mr. Scott is the top of my list. Seriously have seen every one at least FIFTY TIMES . Thank you
Wow, thank you!
Beautiful print! You must have restored an old print. Randolph would have loved it! Thanks!
Great to watch the restored version. Scott and Romero were both fine actors.
Great movie 🎬 enjoyed Cesar Ramaro and the bartender " Chris " . Excellent character selections for The Cisco Kid involved in this. How the western character actors all worked in twined with the movie industry.
Thank you Rob word ☺️
Another great vid. Who doesn’t remember Scott? He was one of the real Men of Hollywood. Great stuff on a budget. Thanks Pard.🇺🇸love multiple versions.
My Dad and Mum got married in 1939 I think every movie about true life characters is opened to criticism why not just enjoy the movie for what it is great cast and story you could pick any movie to PIECES so either watch it or leave it thank you Rob for all your great movies and your excellent presentation s many thanks for your shows Aussie down under a real fan of yours ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks, paul. It appears that we have lots of fans for A WORD ON WESTERNS down under! Cool!
I have always loved Randolph Scott and Ward Bond.
I think that Gunfight at the O. K. Corral, with Burt Lancaster and John Ireland and Olive Carey and Kirk Douglas is very very good.
Read Kirk Douglases autobiography, you won't like him after reading his own words about himself.
This was so good, everything a western should be, some violence, some niceness and just a hint of romance
Thanx for showing this great vintage western. Its not histirically accurate,nonetheless its a great film. For accuracy,as well as my all time favorite Wyatt Earp movie, Ill watch Tombstone with Kurt Russell and Val Kilmer.
Good movie. Thanks Rob 👍 hooked on westerns for years ❤
Make no mistake. Arline Abdalian is on the way! Big Rob, I'm ready for Randolph Scott anytime!👍🤠🐴
Of course, she is.
❤❤❤❤❤ la de Henry Fonda y Victor Mature es espléndida y ésta película también..el buen Randolph y César Romero espectacular gracias
One of my favorite Randolph Scott movies. Love this one and My Darling Clementine. Rob you said there were similarities. Another film I love is Powder River of course with Rory Calhoun. It's so similar to both of the Earp films it's a wonder they didn't get copywrite troubles. But thanks for putting it out, once again!! I've watched this on every channel that will put it out!! Just to give more thumbs ups!!
Thanks, steve
@@AWordonWesterns
Oh no no no sir, THANK YOU! I wouldn't be who I am today without my parents, John Wayne, and the greatest genre ever put on celluloid!!
@@AWordonWesterns
These movies are my life line to not getting into politics or down some silly rabbit hole. I have my two USN veteran parents to that for that! Dad loved all the genre. Including Spaghetti westerns. Personally they are hard for me to watch or like. I really do not get, how good ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST, is so good or a step above or why it's so liked!? Like the actors but never liked the genre at all. What's your thoughts on those, "westerns"?
A thought crossed my mind that Keanu Reeves as Wyatt and Johnny Depp as Doc would be a good start to a fresh take on the O.K. Corral story. I'd pay to see that. We're big fans of Rob and a Word on Westerns out here, always a good show. Grateful for your efforts on the best true western channel, Mr. Word !
Thanks, Woody. I'm trying.
I've watched this movie many times and I enjoy it always thx for bringing to us 👍
“Frontier Marshal” told a fictionalized version of the OK corral but it is a highly satisfactory movie because every person was given justice according to what he actually did in history. The actors were great! Hollywood spent the Great Depression era money carefully and worked diligently to spare the feelings of the relatives of the people in Tombstone.
Thank you ...😊
I remember it when I was just a kid now a man, but Gregory is still around in the show's we watch and My hero of the past
Got MtWhitney,in many of the shots.
Cool old movie,haven't seen in years.Thanks Robb!
Glad you enjoyed it.
I think this was the first time I saw this movie. A great classic with great performances. Thank you for the introduction.
You bet, tom. Glad to be of service.
Thank you for sharing this great movie ❤
Our pleasure!
Awesome movie.. Western keeps discovering more new one to me
It’s Burt and Kirk for me when it comes to my ultimate pairing….
Thank you!
You're welcome, tib
I think you forgot to mention the James Garner version of Wyatt Earp.. it was ok but I do love this version, Randolph Scott was one of the best Western stars that make any western top notch. Thanks for letting us watch
We did an entire AWOW episode on HOUR OF THE GUN with Monte Markham, cliff. It was Monte's film debut!
Ergreifend und auch ein wenig Tränendrüsen drückend.
Randolph Scott a joué aussi dans " colt 45" super film qui raconte l 'histoire de ce fameux pistolet !!
In the thirty's most Western were filmed in Lone Pine John Wayne had a master suite t one of the motels.
Randolph Scott a joué dans énormément de westerns autant que le grand John Wayne, sûr!!
Val was the best Doc there was I really like watching any movie with him in it
Great film, good quality upload 🎉
Thank you very much!
Awesome!
Thank you! Cheers!
I believe that they used "Doc Halliday" instead of "Doc Holliday" because of threats of a lawsuit from Holliday's family if his name was used .
"Doc Holliday always drinks milk...never whiskey." Yeah...right.
Word on westerns is the best!
Thanks, doug. We all sure LOVE WESTERNS!!
Enjoyed ,second time round ,
Thanks again!
The best Doc holiday was Val Kilmer
Can't argue there.
By far TOMBSTONE is the very best of Wyatt Earpp and Doc Holiday! Val Kilmer by far the best Doc Holiday!
This movie was in 1939 , Val Kilmer was born.
🌵the lizard🦎king🔥🎶
In other ' Gun fight at O.K. Corral ' episodes Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday , Wyatt's two brothers together fought the Cowboys . Holliday didn't die there.He died much later.
I am rather surprised that an A film from Fox was 71 minutes long .Perhaps the cutting room floor.Still a good movie.
Cant wait...
Lovely movie
Too bad such a great actor as Randolph Scott would have been a part to this madness other falsehood ending I can't believe I'm the only one that felt this way
Caesar Romeo was also played the Joker in Batman, The Television Series (1966-68).
Since Blazing Saddles introduced Randolph Scott he's been an icon!
I have seen this before. It is a fun movie. It is not historically accurate which I would prefer, but is a good movie. Randolph Scott and Cesar Romero are good. Nancy Kelly and Binnie Barnes are beautiful. The supporting cast was great. To me the most dramatic part was the operation on little Pablo. Eddie Foy Jr was fun comic relief. (Did he have a whole career playing his father?) I notice that you mention several of the films about the gunfight at the O. K. Corral, but that you overlooked "Doc" with Stacy Keach.
👍👍👍💕
The far side and the gun fight at the okie dokie coral.
Is anyone else noticing that the Comments program often doesn't work during live events? I saw Rob's comment, to me, about going to Lone Star tonight. And i saw my comment about snow in New Hampshire. But both showed up only for a second and disappeared. They are both gone from the scroll, as if they aren't there or were never there. TH-cam technology has some bugs.
I believe that you posted on Chat, not Comments, and Chat disappears at the end of the Live Stream.
Thanks, bob. I didn't know that either. Much appreciated.
@@AWordonWesterns You’re welcome! 🙂
CHARLIE STEVENS IS THE GRANSON OF GERONOMO :) SUPER COOL
I love you channel I wish you would find some film on lash LaRue
Will do, John. Thanks.
Boy I've seen some fictionalized Wyatt Earp movies before, like Gunfight at the OK Corral with Burt Lancaster, My Darling Clementine with Henry Fonda, Hour of the Gun with James Garner. But I believe that this one takes the cake. This one didn't even try to find out what the history was or anything about it. The only names they used that were real were Wyatt Earp and Doc HAliday. And then they got Doc's last name wrong. I have no idea why. It wasn't until Kevin Costner and Kurt Russel came along that anyone ever really tried to write the true story and I understand that some of the things in those movies were wrong. But they tried. This one didn't even try. But it was still a good movie if you are not a history purist. Just good Western fun. Good movie, just not historically.
I guess that you haven't seen "Doc" with Stacy Keach. It is a bit of a politicized version of the Tombstone story.
@@williambilyeu9801 No, I have not. I will now try to find it and watch it. Thanks.
I just found it on Prime. Gonna watch it tonight.
It would be nice if this and other films could be colorized in 4K. Technicolor is the way to go.
In @1999 I saw a restored Randolph Scott western in the theater where, in the begging of the movie he chases down 3 bad guys. Can't seem to find that 1 on the YT; please identify for me that movie.
👍
Great movie. I loved it. I like Clementine better for one reason. Maybe 2 reasons, it's more historically, correct and doc holiday. Operation triquita Linda Darnell, who dies, which is direct result of going to a dentist with a bullet wound.
Waiting
Deep.
You know in all these movies someone always gets wounded and whoever is attending says get me plenty of hot water, but I never see anyone use it duh
Powder River seams to be almost the same story , I like Rory Calhoun , but this is a better version
I mean, "Lone Pine..."
The Unvercity of Arizona's History Department after Stuart Lake died called his Wyatt Earp approved bio a Tall Tale & sold to the students Josie's account as true. In 1999 U. of A. had to change their tune when threatened with a lawsuit because the Earp Family still had all Virgil's & the Sisters & Relatives letters. They still refuse to acknowlege Lakes version as Fact. I spent a month reading Wyatt Earp Fountier Marshal & Fact Checking all the stories & even though Lake was enamored by Wyatt Earp I couldn't find a lie in it.. Virgil first went to Prescott as an Undercover U.S. Marshal to break up a Gang there & I suspect Wyatt did the same although he was a buinessman too, so that part is hard to say. If someone would research the U.S. Marshall archieves hard telling what we would learn..
"My Darling Clementine", is another fun film, if you can ignore the fact that the story has no basis in fact, and history has been totally obliterated. Henry Fonda was such a fine actor, and was really good in that, he deserved better than that mash-up of history, just as R. Scott and C. Romero deserved better than this mess.
I don't particularly like this version of what happened to doc Holliday when everybody knows that he didn't die the way they said in the movie otherwise why would Virgil and Morgan and the rest of Wyatt family have said to die in the okay corral other than that it was a good fictional movie although the ending completely messed up the real ending of such a great frontier family
This is one of those films where all the names should be changed, and any historical references, removed. Then, I could enjoy it. Authenticity and historical acuracy has been totally shredded. To attach the of beloved historical figures to this mess is a shame, especially since the main actors are quite good in their roles ; it just has almost nothing to do with reality. I am a true fan of Scott and Romero. Their fine talent was wasted in, what could have been a nice film. Just don't try to tell me, this has anything to do with true history.
Essa história é bem diferente sobre o Earp. Nela não aparecem os irmãos dele. Ele, sozinho, enfrentou os bandidos no Curral, o que não é verdade, ele estava com os irmãos e mais o Doc. Hollydey. E o Doc. não foi morto, morreu pela tuberculose. Por fugir tanto da verdadeira história, o filme não ficou tão bom. Earp tinha bigodão e o Scott não. Nota 7.
It would be nice to finish the Wyatt Earp movie. But it stopped just when it was getting interesting. Can you fix it? Before I turn 90, literally.
???????
Hi in order : Tombstone , My Darling Clementine , Frontier Marshal . . As for Doc Holiday : Val Kilmer , Victor Mature . .
Doc Holiday is the [ only ] Johnny Reb I have any positive things to say about . .🍺 🍺
Doc would have liked to have gone out that instead of the way he did.
Ex military! A gun slinger!!! In the wild west? The end??? Roa Aotearoa nui.
Good film, but scant grip on history. Randolph Scott and Cesar Romero were a pretty decent Wyatt and Doc.
That is not how Doc Holliday died he died in a hospital from T.B.
Victor Mature was the best of these two actors.
Me encantaria en espanöol no se ingles
Why let fact influence movie reality.
When the true story is far more interesting, why not just make up a bunch of claptrap? Not badly done tho.
A poor cousin to My Darling Clementine, but interesting.
This is about as removed from the book as you could possibly get. Im glad Wyatt Earp never saw this, he would have shot the producer, the writer , and the director. They certainly did a disservice to the truth.
Who wants to hang around with a guy who has tb
No, Cecar Romero was the best!
Castellano o en español
they must've rehearsed a lot 😂
It was okay but not my Favorite version of Of the okay Corral dot holiday and Wyatt
Caesar Romero as Doc Holliday ?
Don’t make me laugh
Espanis xf
This was the most inaccurate version of Wyatt Earp and Doc Holiday ever written. The only thing close to being accurate were the names. The rest was a total disaster!! Not a bad movie, but if it had a good Writer that actually knew at least a little about the real life characters, it would have been better. Some parts were laughable they were so bad!!
Damn. Haven’t even started the movie yet😭
Victor Mature? What a tool.
😂..Doc Holliday died 1887 of Tuberculosis. After the OK Coral showdown.
