Agreed 100%
Amen
Wyatt and doc is one of the best bromances in movies.
That line about why doc was risking his life for Wyatt is fantastic.
After this its young guns 😊
I’m your Huckleberry 😊
Val Kilmer should have gotten a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for this film.
ICEMAN!! Doc was AWESOME!
His best performance and it is not even close.
He did well at least in the eyes of anyone that gives a shit about film
One of the only times I’ve enjoyed a performance of his.
Absolutely!!
“I found him a loyal friend and good company. He was a dentist whom necessity had made a gambler; a gentleman whom disease had made a vagabond; a philosopher whom life had made a caustic wit; a long, lean blonde fellow nearly dead with consumption and at the same time the most skillful gambler and nerviest, speediest, deadliest man with a six-gun I ever knew.” - Wyatt Earp speaking of Doc Holliday
Yeah, I can read & I read that same book you basically ripped off-I’ve read that book.
Go take your medication.@@r.d.sandman6474
@@r.d.sandman6474 he literally quoted the passage. Why would you think that means any of us, yourself included, cannot read? I, for one, have no read that book though I appreciate the quote the OP provided.
How is quoting Wyatt on Doc is considered ripping someone off?
@@r.d.sandman6474umm … that’s why he used “quotation marks”.
The medicine Wyatt’s wife was drinking was called Laudanum… It was primarily whiskey mixed with opium. It was the latest in pain killers in those times, and naturally, highly addictive.
Are you the guy who says this on all these videos? Anyway I want some laudanum
@@oneDonly You really don't.
Common law, not real wife.
@@ms_scribbles Yeah, no, that's the 1880s version of Fentanyl - whiskey and heroin, it'll kill you almost as quick.
@@ms_scribblesEh. I tried laudanum a few times. It was pretty nice. It’s typically not much opium in the alcohol. And I’m saying that as a person who is easily addicted to shit.
Tombstone is such a badass movie. Completely quotable and the cast is straight loaded. Kurt Russel, Bill Paxton, Sam Elliott, Powers Boothe, Val Kilmer, Dana Dillaney, Billy Zane, Charlton effing Heston, Micheal Biehn, a young Billy Bob Thornton…this damn movie is loaded. Been watching it since the mid 90s.
You forgot jason priestly
And Stephen Lang
And the guy who played Jack’s dad on LOST
and Thomas Haden Church.
Charlton Heston
The reason why Doc said “Now that’s funny” right before he died: he was looking at his bare feet. He always believed he would die with his boots on (in a gunfight). Because he had tuberculosis, Doc took risks when fighting, made him fearless. So it was a joke that he eventually died in bed, with bare feet. I am related to Doc, he was my great grandmother’s great uncle.
Well your great grandmother's great uncle was a badass lol.
What did you think of Val Kilmer's portrayal of Doc? I know it's iconic, but did it do him justice?
@@TheGelasiaBlythe OK, let's divorce the idea that he may have a thought or even some idea of WHY Doc (in this movie) said what he said, from the idea that being a VERY distant relative makes him any more knowledgeable about the subject. Most people don't really even have a clue, let alone know what their close relatives think, or why they say or do things.
I appreciate "the drip's" assumptions of WHY, more than his relationship to the man he never knew except through a branch in his ancestry.
That's awesome
@@StevesFunhouse okay. I'm happy that this is true for your family. In mine, we keep a lot of letters and memorabilia of our ancestors - and they're not really famous (unless you count the guy who invented coffee syrup as "famous," or the woman who started a hate war by letters with Fannie Farmer as "famous"). With a famous person in a family, they may have letters and other accounts that could capture the personality of someone better than someone's take in a motion picture. It's not even close to unreasonable of me to ask if this person had any insight on a family member.
I'm not sure what your point was here.
Docs last words were actually reported to be "this is funny" while he looked at his bare feet. He always said he would "go out with his boots on" so when he passed in a hospice bed with no shoes on it apparently amused him.
Incredible film.
Man, I'm glad you explained that. I never understood that line was about in the movie.
@@davidhall6436 "Dying with my boots on" was that most highly favoured of cowboy terms. It meant dying while you were still alive enough to be up and at 'em!
@@ToddSauve Exactly..
Was coming here to make this comment... thanks for saving me the trouble LOL
His comment to Ringo after the gun fight " Your no Daisy" was actually a reference to Doc hoping maybe Ringo would end the pain and sickness.
I always think when Doc is explaining what makes Ringo tick, he's also explaining himself to Wyatt, but implying that what keeps Doc straight is having his friendship with Wyatt, whereas as Ringo has just surrendered to his demons completely.
The scene at the creek where Wyatt waded in through a hail of bullets actually happened just as it was depicted. One of the survivors wrote it down and told it in great detail.
Lost a heel off one of his boots, and his saddle horn was shot off. Not a mark on him.
Wyatt Earp had amazing cool under fire. His calmness kept his aim true, unnerving his enemies.
Wyatt Earp was never, ever, ever injured by a gunshot, not once in his entire life. That's just absolutely mental.
@@FrenchieQc, well the "wild west" wasn't nearly as wild as the media has always hyped it up to be. That's why the gunfight at the O.K. Corral was so famous - because it was fairly rare. But there were definitely some tense moments, just like today. For Wyatt Earp (and any lawman or criminal) yes, it is astounding that he was never shot.
Doc Holliday was a dentist not a doctor and I’ve heard he was a great gunfighter. Van Kilmer plays him and millions of us thinks he should won the Oscar for this performance 🎉
dentists are doctors of the teeth...
@@sathanas420 lol ikr and they actually start as similar paths as a medical doctor as far as studies lol.
Dentists back then likely would have been trusted more than most doctors at least much more accessible to the average person. It wasn't until around the Gilded Age that they started to structure the medical system in a more formal way and then around the 1910's and 1920's is when that system changed again when the Rockefellers bought half of the medical schools in the country so they could set the standard which also benefited them on the back end since they had ties to insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies.
Sounds logical
The shoot out between the cowboys and the Earps was at the ok coral. In Tombstone Arizona. If you ever come to Arizona you can visit Tombstone and see where the shoot out happen. The church where the wedding happen was filmed at old Tucson studios. You can also visit the old Tucson studios where they filmed A lot of westerns.
Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday is pretty much universally accepted by most people as one of the greatest performances ever put on the big screen. Him not winning an Oscar has been mocked throughout history ever since. Doc had tuberculosis and is the reason for the sweating. This is one of the greatest modern day westerns ever made. You guys are picking some great movies.
Yes, but tuberculosis was called Consumption back in Doc Holliday's day. Because it consumes you from the inside out... Anyone with a Lung disease was called a lunger..like what Ike Clampton called him at the poker table just before Doc fell out or what Ringo called him just before thete Fight for blood.... either way the real Doc Holliday died from consumption just like his mother died from consumption when he was a teenager. The real duck Holliday was a Georgia aristocrat
You should watch 'The Salton Sea' if you're a fan of Val Kilmer.
Unforgiven is pretty amazing too.
Soft-spoken with nerves of steel, he survived countless gunfights due to his extraordinary patience and resolute manner. But Earp wasn't just the famous lawman of Dodge City and Tombstone fame; he was also a buffalo hunter, miner, card dealer, stagecoach driver, saloon owner, and much more throughout the years.
One of my most prized possessions is a signed Wyatt Earp $1 bill signed by Kurt Russell and Val Kilmer. Plus a signed picture of Val as Doc where he signed it “I’ll be your Huckleberry”. Love this movie 🍿
That's bad ass!
That's incredible.
Here is how Wyatt described Doc Holiday in that book.
I found him a loyal friend and good company. He was a dentist whom necessity had made a gambler; a gentleman whom disease had made a vagabond; a philosopher whom life had made a caustic wit; a long, lean blonde fellow nearly dead with consumption and at the same time the most skillful gambler and nerviest, speediest, deadliest man with a six-gun I ever knew.
I saw this movie years ago but there's a little exchange in it I swear I still think about once or twice a week. When Doc gets asked why he's so ride-or-die, he says "Its because Wyatt Earp is my friend." The other guy says something like "That's it? Shit, I got lots of friends," and Doc just kinda solemnly mumbles "I don't."
Doc Holliday's a real one.
Terrific line. Kilmer has some real banger lines in that movie, and nailed the role.
One of the best lines in that movie!!! My favorite line was when Johnny Ringo said Ill put you out of your misery and Doc was like, "SAY WHEN"!!!
Those are my favorite lines from the film
I just noticed in the " one for each of you" scene when Doc pulls his other gun, he spins each gun in the opposite direction....an absolute stellar performance
I just loved the line Doc said to Ringo...I'm your huckleberry. That set Ringo off to say ok lunger! Macho gone wrong.
one of the greatest westerns ever !!...Val Kilmer as Holliday is the stuff of Hollywood legends, his acting as Doc and as Jim Morrison in The Doors are 2 of his greatest achievements of all time ❤
The climactic gun fight, The Shootout at the O.K. Corral, is shot for shot historically accurate in this movie.
Doc. Holliday was a dentist from Thomasville, Georgia. After developing tuberculosis, he moved out west for a drier climate. TB was a death sentence, and Doc became such a great gambler and gunfighter because he was fearless. In his mind, and in fact, he was already dead.
Powers Booth put in his greatest acting role as Curly Bill. Too damn good. Nobody knew it was him.
And don't ever name all the actors on screen again and miss Sam Elliott (Virgil Earp).
Doc's cousin was Dr. Crawford Long who had a hospital named after him. The hospital is now Emory University Hospital Midtown
Reportedly, Doc wasn't just already dead. He had decided that if he was gonna die anyways, he was gonna die _for_ something, rather than _of_ something.
He was a literal death seeker, looking to cause his own demise actively for some cause or another, however petty, to avoid the wasting death he knew was coming.
Problem was, he was too good at winning out... and in the end he died of TB anyhow. Which is why his last conscious words were 'This is funny.'
He had set out to go out with his boots on... and failed at it, and he was appreciating the irony in his last conscious moments.
The ok corral shootout in the movie lasts longer than it did irl
Regardless of anything else he ever did, the role of Doc Holliday puts Val Kilmer up there with the greats; what a performance.
He should have won an Oscar for it, no doubt.
He was amazing in this. One of my favorite movies.
A cowboy was just a working stiff who helped manage a herd of cattle. "THE COWBOYS" was a gang of horse and cattle thieves who took over the town of Tombstone. ❤ your reactions.
Yeah they would go down to Mexico and steal the horses and cattle
They were actually called The Cochise County Cowboys, why the Film did not give them their full real name I have no clue. calling them just cowboys confuses younger modern kids today watching it for the 1st time.
Sorry Pard' ... There's wayy more depth to a Cowboy than just being a "working stiff who helped manage a herd of cattle" im betting that youve never met a real Cowboy in your life. Lol
@@chapo0815 No, he pretty much got it right. Cowboys worked on cattle farms and transported cattle on cattle drives. That pretty much sums up their role. And I grew up in Arizona. I probably met my first modern day cowboy when I was about 6.
Actually, if you got back to the origin of Cowboys, that is what they called Black "Boys" who tended to the cows. So the original cowboys were Black kids/slaves....😉
I don't like Western movies but this is one of my favorite movies ever! I've watched it so many times. Glad y'all enjoyed it 😊
One of my top 10 favorite movies ever. 100% classic. Also Kurt Russell’s mustache is a super hero itself
Doc's dialog in this movie is hilarious. I've watched this movie probably 20 times and it never gets old
ENDLESSLY quotable lol
He was Southern born and was upper educated, wandering gambler, little is known about him.
* I got two guns, one for each of ya* 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣 😂
@@richardchaparro2830 "Why, Ike! Whatever do you mean?"
@@MrBonners he was a dentist that liked gambling and gunfighting more than dentistry.
That line "wyatt earp is my friend" followed by "I don't" is one of my favourite pieces of any movie.
Absofuckinglutley.
Same
I love the grin on Doc's face when facing Johnny Ringo, just before the draw. Doc knew he was going to win. Notice the gun play after the shot. Doc didn't have to brag or show off.
Doc didn't care if he won or not. That's what made Holliday such a terrifying opponent - as far as he was concerned, he was already dead and a bullet would just be a mercy. Ringo displayed that he was afraid of dying when he tried to get Doc to back down - that's the only edge Holliday needed was that speck of self-preservation in his enemy.
This was set in the Victorian era. It was popular at the time to literally use flowery language. That’s why Doc uses phrases like “peach of a hand”, “you’re a daisy if you do” and “I’m your huckleberry”. Those plants all had characteristics to them. It’s also why Twain named his character “Huckleberry Finn”.
I like your reviews. Keep it up.
That medication was Laudanum. It's a powerful mixture of Opium and alcohol. She wasn't in pain. She was addicted to it. Doc was dying of Tuberculosis, a lung disease. That's why Curly referred to him as "Lunger".
eban I felt her pain I was addicted to herion 5 years been clean 6 aloha
"lunger" was an very derogatory term for tuberculosis victims in those days
I agree with what you said but believe me she was in pain
@@roy19491 yes it was and I bet back then it's was fighting words
It wasn't Curly Bill it was Johnny Ringo that called him "lunger" but before that the man Doc referred to Ed at the card table called him "lunger" first .
Doc memorized and copied all his moves perfectly with the cup. That's what he was showing Ringo while playing it off as a joke for everyone else.
That's why Ringo was scared of him at the end. He knew Doc was on a different level.
I never picked up on that. That's actually really bad ass.
Doc Holiday did not kill Johnny Ringo in real life , Ringo shot himself (suicide)
Well damn I just posted this exact comment lol!
@@jjjj2100 True, but it's more dramatic for the movie to have Doc do it.
Bear in mind, Doc is mimicking Ringo *while blind drunk*
Him sober is another level.
This movie is a classic.
I've watched it many times and it still gets me when Wyatt confronts Johnny Tyler in the casino.
Val Kilmer's best role ever.
True friendship to the end.
If nobody knew, the part where wyatt walked out into the river and shot curly bill is 100% accurate to every eyewitness account of the shootout.
"You gonna do something or just stand there and bleed?"
Has to be one of the coldest things I've heard in a movie.
This is one of my favorite movies of all time. Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday is incredible and Timeless and he has some of the best lines ever.
" he's so drunk I bet you he's seeing double"
Doc-" I have two pistols, one for each of you"
Excellent lol
It never fails to blow my mind that he twirls his guns in opposite directions while still holding the cup hooked on his middle finger. There are a **lot** of little things that make his performance so captivating every time you watch this. The mocking cup twirling bit is even more scathing since Doc copied every one of Ringo's moves.
"Say when."
@@quicksilvermad Supposedly, Michael Biehn practiced for weeks to get the gun-twirling routine done... and Val never watched him do it until the live take, then improvised the cup spinning there on the spot
@@MisterW0lfe Just gotta say wow if that was improv and he copied all that. It's like damn, talk about becoming your part.
The part with Wyatt crossing the river while getting shot at was apparently real. His coat was covered in holes but none hit him. And when he shot Curly Bill he fired both barrels at once, almost cutting Bill in half.
The scene with Wyatt in the Oriental is one of the most historically accurate parts of this film. Billy Bob Thorton is a bit older than the real individual, but yeah, those smacks, the crap talk, throwing him out by the ear...accurate!
The gunfight at the OK Corral is one of the most famous gunfights in History, and the scene when Wyatt grabbed the guys gun and hit him in the head is called Buffalo-ing,
and was something Wyatt did quite often.
Something that also recently came out - even though there is a Director’s name in the credits, Kurt Russel was the actual Director, but he didn’t want to have deal with the press while filming.
That's my favorite fact. It's just so inglorious to walk in, bust someone on the head with the butt of a shotgun and drag him out. But so much safer.
This movie made “I’m your Huckleberry” & “You’re no daisy” into epic phrases that never get old or stale to use. Val Kilmer’s Doc rendition was sublime & he really is an under appreciated actor who has loads of talent which probably should’ve seen more roles
I've got a black t-shirt with Val's silouette uttering, "Say When" ;^)
@@matthewgrand4791 😆👍
Real figures of speech in the US southern coastal region that original usage have become very vague to lost. Possibly a French Cajon reference origin translation to English.
@@matthewgrand4791 You got me looking for a shirt like this, xD
It's huckle-bearer, which today would be equivalent of being a pallbearer
It was a true story. Even the part where Wyatt walks out into the creek shooting. In fact, his coat was riddled with bullet holes but he wasn't hit with a single one.
Doc Holiday had some of the coldest “one-liners”ever put on screen. Whoever wrote his dialogue deserves as much credit as the way Val Kilmer delivered it.
Curly Bill was portrayed by the late, great Powers Boothe. Watch him in "Southern Comfort" and "The Guyana Tragedy: The Jim Jones Story." He won an Emmy for the latter film.
He was fantastic as Cy Tolliver in Deadwood.
He had such a terrifying sneer.
@@clevelandcbi You mean Cora in that episode was Kirsten Bell!?!?
Shit... how old was she?
He was also in the original "Red Dawn" with Patrick Swayze.
He was also in "Rapid Fire" with Brandon Lee (Bruce Lee's son) and "The Emerald Forest."
@@riffgroove She was 24 at the time but I think the character was younger if I remember right
Before Tombstone I was pretty lukewarm on Val Kilmer as an actor. His performance in this film is one the best I've ever seen by anyone. I watch again and again just to see his portrayal of Doc Holliday.
Did you see Real Genius with Val Kilmer
Willow, Heat, The Saint, The Doors, and The Ghost in the Darkness are all pretty good performances I think.
And lets not forget about Batman Forever! 😉😆😆
Yeah…I suppose he’s aight…😊
Kilmer was kind of like Tom Hanks in his early days - known for doing great comedies, but can he, you know, ACT? Turns out the answer for both was a resounding 'yes'.
He was a spot on Jim Morrison (Doors).
He said, "Skin that smoke wagon" love that line.
Y'all are just adorable. Asia looking all embarrassed when she was called out for calling BJ a tall drink of water.
I only watched this movie in the last year as something I've always heard about but never sat down to watch and it was just so good! Val Kilmer is such a good actor.
Virgil is played by Sam Elliot. He's iconic. One classic western is Conager. He also played Sargent Major Plumley on We Were Soldiers.
And he played the pivotal role of Union General Buford in "Gettysburg" the big Cival War Movie.
The best mustache in Hollywood.
@@jamesalexander5623 his character in we were soldiers reminds me of my dad. It's the personality and he also wore the tan class b uniform. I'm an Army brat.
And The Big Lebowski.
And Sam Elliot was in Hulk, long before Kurt Russell (Wyatt Earp) and Michael Rooker (McMasters) reconnected in the Marvel Universe ;^)
Note: Bill Paxton (Morgan Earp) and Michael Biehn (Johnny Ringo) actually made several other movies together including The Terminator and Aliens. You may remember that Bill Paxton was also in the movie Titanic, which also featured Billy Zane (the flamboyant stage actor Mr. Fabian) that played Rose's pompous fiance.
In Fact, Bill Paxton (not to be confused with Bill Pullman from the other Wyatt Earp movie in theaters at the same time) was actually in many hit movies including Stripes, Weird Science, True Lies, Commando, Apollo 13, Twister, Haywire, and many others before passing from a stroke in 2017.
Tombstone is a fantastic movie! Doc is my favorite character of all time and Val Kilmer should've received the Oscar for that performance. Great reaction!
If you guys loved this, then you should definitely check out 'Unforgiven' with Clint Eastwood. It cleaned up at the Oscars (and deservedly so), with stellar performances from Morgan Freeman and Gene Hackman. It's possibly my all-time favourite western.
The problem the Cowboys didn’t understand until it was too late was that Wyatt didn’t start fights, he ENDED them. 😂
And Val Kilmer in this movie was one of the best film performances in history.
I've watched this movie five times. The more you watch it, the more things you catch that you missed before. Doc had tuberculosis. This movie never gets old for me, and it's the movie that drew me to westerns and now they're my favorite genre. Another good one is Open Range.
It was a fun movie and Kilmer was great. I thought Dennis Quaid played him more accurately, but people loved Kilmer's version more.
Love Open Range.
Loved Open Range
I'm so happy to see so many people appreciating "Open Range". It's such a _tragically_ underrated movie (not just a 'western movie'). So many superb actors in one place. One of my favorites that was in the movie passed away less than five months before it was released. In the theater I openly smiled with a tear in my eye every time he was on screen. R.I.P. Michael Jeter 🙏😢.
Rio Bravo is hard to top Western, this one did it. It's more than unfortunate that John Carpenter got into movies to do Westerns and the genre died right when he came in. It's a crime Carpenter never got to make one with Kurt Russell.
“Tall drink of water? You called me that once!”
That one belongs in the reaction hall of fame.
I think we should do a poll
Did Asia ever call BJ a tall drink of water...Yes or No?
I vote...🤔...Yes 😅
The acting by Michael Clarke Duncan in The Green Mile and Val Kilmer in Tombstone are always the performances I think of first whenever I think of the best acting that I have ever seen in a movie.
"Turn this pound cake into red velvet." Man, you almost got the cops called on me I laughed so loud. Thanks for interacting with my favorite movie of all time. Love y'all's vids. Keep up the good work. All the best to you.
“If I thought you weren’t my friend I don’t think I could bare it”
Lmao 🤣
Legendary performances in this! Especially from Val Kilmer! He murdered this role with two guns 😅
Almost everything you see in this movie or at least all the people, are based on true events, true people, especially the fight at the OK corral! ❤
We are, lol!!! Thanks Fam!!! ❤️❤️
“Johnny Tyler, you madcap. Where ya goin with that shotgun?”
Val Kilmer had some of the most memorable lines and sickest delivery in the whole film. My favorite role that he’s ever played.
@@ReelinwithAsiaandBJ lol love you guys!! 💕🙌🏻💕🤗
@@tomhelmsjr yes I agree!! To all of us, he will always be the Oscar winner to that performance! He’s the peoples winner 😎🙌🏻🤗
@@tomhelmsjr And Johnny was played by Billy Bob Thornton
Fun fact: 36:29 - The scene of Wyatt Earp charging across the river shouting "No!" and not getting hit a single time is based on fact. This actually happened like this, and Earp came away without a single wound.
Yeah that's actually very true!!! His over coat has holes in it, but he didn't get hit at all, it was like divine intervention!!!
Wyatt Earp never got shot. Ever. Not once in his entire career.
This whole movie is based off of true events. Yea they put a movie spin to it but all this actually happened. Wyatt Earp was the greatest Law Men in history, and he was shot once.
I read about that. Apparently, he was at a breaking point and just said "screw it" let's end this once and for all!
Wrong
Tombstone was basically a documentary. I'm glad you guys enjoyed it as I did back then.
Operative world is "basically". They took a few liberties.
So very fun fact: That shot at the end of the opening black and white prologue where the guy shoots the gun towards the camera was from the end of "The Great Train Robbery (1903)", considered by many to be the first film that had a narrative driven plot. At the very end, the filmmakers decided to do a thing where they'd have a guy fire a blank at the camera to showcase their filmmaking techniques. Well, the people in theaters, having rarely if ever seen a real movie by that point, were reported to have instinctively ducked out of the way as if they were really being shot at.
Also, you were right to point out that there were lots of Westerns back in the black & white days. After all, a lot of older people watching movies and the first TV shows were probably old enough to have lived during the later years of the "Wild West" era.
LOVE this movie. Val Kilmer's finest performance.
Val Kilmer is an underrated actor. Highly recommend his portrayal of Jim Morrison in The Doors biopic, The Saint, The Ghost and the Darkness and Real Genius are fantastic!
Heat
I just loved him as Mad Mardigan in Willow! I think he may have played Batman once too!
Real Genius was absolutely hilarious, Val Kilmer nailed that role
Real Genius, great comedy. Ghost and the Darkness terrific (sort of) true story, one of the better movies that a lot of people didn't see.
@@joellenglass2344 yeah, don’t forget Willow!
“Turn his pound cake into red velvet” that’s fantastic 😂
At the beginning the priest told them that Death rode in on a horse and hell followed with him. Then Wyatt tells the cowboys the Law is coming and Hells coming with me. Such great writing and foreshadowing. This is also regarded as the most accurate portrayal of actual events. Much of this movie. including much of the iconic quotes are from historical sources. Even the scene where Wyatt walks into the river like a mad man is based on eyewitness testimony.
I loved Doc's reaction to the pistol tricks, using his cup. But the thing is, they look at him with something akin to fear. They realize that even drunk and ill, Doc was easily able to copy the pistol-slinging move for move without missteps. It says something about Doc's abilities.
At the end when Doc said "Well I'll be damned, that's funny" after looking down at his feet... it was because he'd always figured on dying in his boots - probably in some shootout, instead he died barefoot in a hospital bed.
Shoot out at the OK Coral is an historic event. In all of the shoot outs during Wyatt's career as a lawman, he was never even grazed by a bullet. Tombstone is an excellent movie
And the insane incident at the creek did happen, verified by witnesses from both sides of the firefight. Bullets tore through Wyatt's coat, but never actually hit him.
@@Carandiniit was at a different creek than the one shown but still happened
Love it... too many good lines in this movie to get them all. My favorite is right after Creek asks Doc, "Doc, why are you here? You ought to be in bed." Doc replies, "Wyatt Earp is my friend." Creek comes back with, "Hell, I got lots of friends..." and Doc lays it on the line. "Well, I don't."
This movie got off to a very Rocky start and Val Kilmer said Kurt Russell's hard work on every aspect was why this movie turned out so well
I remember hearing that Russell basically took over the directing chair but didn't get credit for it.
Val Kilmer as Doc.... one of my favourite performances of all time in any movie
Yes, that is Kurt Russell. Asia, a 49er was someone who went to California around 1849 for the gold rush; usually they took a ship and landed in San Francisco (hence the football team name)
Also, cowboys road a horse and looked after cattle or moved them from place to place;. The Cowboys were what that gang named themselves. Would like to see you guys react to more westerns.
And the color gold in their uniforms!
They were actually called the Cochise County Cowboys and the film should have given them their real name.
These outlaws simply named their gang "The Cowboys.". Cowboy itself does not imply bad guy.
The historical accuracy on this film was amazing. Wyatt Earp with Kevin Costner is good also
Actually Curly Bill did shoot Fred White accidentally. And the despair he showed at it was legit. Everybody, including the cowboys loved Fred White. And since Fred White didn't actually die right away, he had time to speak in Curly Bill's favor before he passed.
fred even said it was his fault cause he grabbed the barrel and pulled it toward him... In court Wyatt stated that it was an accident . Hell of a way to go either way
Upon further review, in the absence of clear, irrefutable video evidence, the call remains as called on the field.
Any movie Sam Elliott is in is going to be awesome. Suprised you didn't mention him. The voice...unmistakable.
That mustache is unmistakable lol
Kind of weird how Sam Elliot's voice got so deep as he got older. As a young actor he didn't have it.
The guy who narrates the opening is the legendary Robert Mitchum. He was supposed to play the Charlton Heston role, but he was in ill health so he only did the narration.
the man (actor) that doc and morg shot during the OK Corral shooting (when doc said "youre a daisy if you do) is Wyatt Earp III. Wyatt's blood descendant and a spitting image of the real man.
The part where they do the gun spin and the cup spin, basically doc did the exact same trick while seeing him do it once, with a cup…while drunk. Established that though he is drunk, he still is all there in a way, and is functioning.
This is based on real life. The Earps were real people, as was Doc Holliday. The guy who played Virgil was Sam Elliott. Maybe the best movie cowboy of modern movies. Doc did indeed have Tuberculosis. He had been a dentist, but he needed the warm dry climate, so he went west and became a gambler. The big gunfight when the 4 of them shot up all those guys where Virg and Morg got hurt, that was the famous "Shootout at the OK Corral. For another good western, you may want to try Silverado or Unforgiven or The Magnificent seven. If you do the Mag. seven you want the original not the Denzel Washington remake. Also, if you want to check a classic movie with heists and conmen try The Sting. Great movie!!!!!
They have to watch the original The Magnificent Seven before they see the more recent one. And for good measure, The Seven Samurai.
“I’m your huckleberry.” I love that line.
Do you know what it means? It mens "I am the hero knight" and also "I am your pallbearer".
He said 'huckle bearer' with an accent. A huckle bearer is a pallbearer.
@@barkerjames1980
Val Kilmer has said himself that he did not say huckle bearer, he said huckleberry. He’s even written a book titled “I’m Your Huckleberry”
@@davegnarlsson4344 in this specific line's case, he meant that "i'm your man, I'll gladly play for keeps."
@@BinkyTheToaster That's not what it means.
This movie was such a great and cast loaded movie. Could watch this over and over. The Powers Booth scene where he says, "Well Bye" has even been made a meme. So glad y'all really liked it. 👍
When I figured out this movie was based on true events, I did some research on who those characters were and this movie fascinates me in learning about the events of Tombstone, Arizona.
This movie is dramatized, but it is based on real historical events. Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, Johnny Ringo, and so on were all real people. In fact, the dialogue at the infamous Gunfight at the O.K. Corral was nearly word for word accurate.
We do need to be real though, it is highly exagerrated. Out of curiosity i done some Googling and reading up on the history of Earp and co and they really weren't that much like the characters here. Think of it as a Western using the characters of Earp and co but do not take it as an acurrate version of them or events, although this is "based" on real events. Also, there's no realy way to know word for word how accurate the ok Corral scene was, it's just too far back. Not trying to argue, mate, just keeping it real.
@@TheycallmeMrWonka It's moreso based on legends rather than historical accounts. Wyatt Earp (the movie) is more of the historical take on Earp.
There are so many great performances in this. The actor who plays Ike (the cowardly cowboy) played Colonel Quaritch, the bad guy in Avatar; Bill Paxton and Michael Biehn (who plays Ringo in this) were both in Aliens, Powers Booth; Thomas Haden Church (Sandman in the first Spider Man movies); Sam Eliot; Michael Rooker (Yondu in Guardians of the Galaxy); Billy Bob Thorton; Billy Zane; Terry O'Quinn (from Lost), Dana Delany (China Beach tv show). It's a movie just packed with talent (obviously Kurt Russel and Val Kilmer).
Bill Paxton (who was featured in Titanic with Billy Zane) was actually in FIVE movies with Michael Biehn including: The Lords of Discipline, The Terminator, Aliens, Navy Seals, and Tombstone.
And Kurt Russell faced off with Michael Rooker in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2 ;^)
@@matthewgrand4791 Man, I've been thinking about Lords of Discipline just recently-huge movie from my early days, and now I don't remember Bill Paxton or Michael Beihn. were in it There was that other actor who was in Officer and a Gentleman though, what's his name?.
@@phila3884 Richard Gere, or David Keith?
Hey I meant to write all that down as well , but you beat me to the punch.😂😂. I appreciate that I must have watched “Tombstone”, 40 times those lines were killers weren’t they Val Kilmer not getting an Oscar was the reason I stopped watching the Oscars. Because no one! Can’t say he didn’t play the hell outta Doc’s roll. He had a good roll in “To Kill A Irishman”. You really know your actors 👍🏽
When Doc said "I don't," in response to, "Hell, I got lots of friends," it explains so much about him, just how far he is willing to go. He takes the deputy badge because he KNOWS Wyatt can't beat Ringo, but he can. Val Kilmer absolutely left nothing else. So good.
The traditional cowboy was a person that worked the cattle on ranches. In this film it was the name of the group of bad guys. A 49'er was a nickname for a gold or silver miner. Kurt Russell does play the part of Wyatt Earp. Val Kilmer plays Doc Holiday and was the same man that played Iceman in the movie Top Gun. Sam Elliot is the man playing the brother that lost his arm. Bill Paxton plays the brother that was shot in the back and died. The man playing Johnny Ringo, the gun spinner, is the hero in the Terminator movie that rescues Sarah Conner.
The woman getting off the stage coach is supposed to be Josephine, the woman that Wyatt abandoned his wife for and spent the rest of his life with. The bottle of medicine Wyatt's wife is always talking about was a liquid version of opium that also had morphine and codeine in it. Tombstone still exists. It has the nick name "The Town To Tough To Die". This movie was filmed in Tombstone and the movie set Old Tucson.
Doc drank so much because it acted as a cough suppressant, and pain killer. Read so many books on Doc Holliday, been a hero of mine for years. Got the nickname Doc in high school, but only because my initials are MD (like medical Doctor) and since there was like 5 Mike's on the Football team, we all got Nicknames. Doc stuck and have had it ever since. Absolutely love this film. Hope to one day visit Doc's Grave marker in CO.
True! Iam an old country boy but that was the remedy back in the day , it actually improved my shot hunting! 👍
I really believe Val Kilmer (especially) should have won an award for his acting in this movie!
Johnny Ringo is played by the same guy as the "hero" in the original Terminator, Michael Biehn and Ike is the same guy that played the Colonel in the original Avatar, Stephan Lang.
This Movie was one of the closest to what really happened in Tombstone at that time.
The O.K Corral is very infamous & the shooting did not last that long either. It was over very quick.
They do alot of reenactments in Arizona Tombstone as well.
2 of the McLaury brothers were killed & a Clanton
Also it was an accident when Curly Bill shot the sheriff.
Curly was drunk off his rockers & the gun discharged when he tried to give it to him.
Doc Holiday first name is John.
He has done some Dentistry for a time, where he got his name Doc.
Respectable as well with a Doctor of Dental surgery.
I think he got it in his early 20's.
He got his diagnosis with Turberculosis around that time as well
Wyatt Earp has done some jobs in Kansas in a couple cities.
He actually met Doc in Dodge City (Gunsmoke).
Doc actually said that Wyatt saved his life
Earp was actually A referee in the early 90's for boxing as well
Johnny Ringo was always fascinating to me.
Just a psychotic person.
No one really know who killed him or if he killed himself.
It is actually unsolved.
Ike Clanton survived all this, but he will die a few years later anyways
So much history which is so fascinating.
That is just parts of the stories.
When I tell you I would've risked It all for Val Kilmer back then. 😭 I would've RISKED IT ALL. 💯👌
He was an still is a beautiful man coming from an ugly man 😅
Val Kilmer was cheated out of that Oscar.
I get you but it’s Sam for me! That voice! Since Fatal Beauty back in the day…😍
Same!
My wife fell in love with Val Kilmer's lips as a kid - she says he played Batman just so his lips could be framed by the BatCowl. LOL
You can still visit Tombstone, about an hour or so southeast of Tucson. They have preserved the "Old Town" (where this movie was filmed) and still have cowboy "gunfights" for tourists at the OK Corral. You can have a drink at the Crystal Palace, Big nosed Kate's (Doc's woman owned it) and there are western themed gift shops. Wyatt Earp was a lawman in Dodge City KS, before moving further west, and almost everyone who headed west had to go through there, and heard his legend.
All three of the Earp brothers married former "hostesses", Maddy, being a morphine, or codeine addict (Laudanum)
A "lunger" is someone who is suffering from tuberculosis (consumption). Doc Holiday moved to the desert to ease the moisture from his breathing.
Curly Bill shot the sheriff as a result of taking a big meal of PEYOTE, and was hallucinating wildly.
Doc Holiday's last wish was to die with his boots on. That is why he says. "Ill be damned" at the end. He is bare foot.
I went to Chatsworth High with him. Didn't actually know him, but knew he was one of the drama geeks. I am happy for him that his short career was so fruitful. Val certainly deserved an Oscar for his perfomance.
Sorry that he became so ill, but glad he was included in Maverick. On the other hand Kevin Spacey attended as well. One out of two's not bad.
5:44: The scene at the start of the movie was The Holy Priest Quoting Revelation Regarding The Angel of Death Riding a Pale Horse During The Apocalypse. It was Specifically Meant for Johnny Ringo, but Also The Other Cowboys in general; It was EXACTLY the Right Time because The Priest was NOT Preaching and/or Lecturing the Thugs. He was PROPHESYING Against Them even though the thugs didn't know it. The Rider on The Pale Horse was Doc Holiday who would eventually Kill Johnny Ringo Despite Dying of Tuberculosis Himself. That's what The Latin Conversation Alluded to & Johnny Ringo Realized Too Late When Doc Holiday Told Him He "Looked like Someone Done Walked All Over Your (his) Grave".
it genuinely upsets me Val Kilmer didn't get an Academy Award for this movie. His Doc Holiday is easily one of the greatest roles anyone has ever played.
That was the last year I watched the Oscar's. Never forgave the Academy for screwing over Kilmer.
My great grandfather was a peace officer with Wyatt Earp in Monmouth, IL in 1901 before the Earp Brothers went west. This movie caught the essence of the times and the character of the Earp's.
I married into the Earp family.
@@earprg Good to know that the Earp name didn't die out
Wyatt Earp was born in Monmouth IL, in 1848 so in 1901 he would have been 56 years old by which time, he had been retired from wild west law enforcement for twenty years.The OK Corral shootout was in 1881. I believe your great grandfather could have been a Peace Officer with Wyatt or , one of his several brothers in Monmouth, however it had to be several years before 1901.
The Earp family moved west in the late 1860s and arrived in Tombstone in 1879 .
@@johnmcmahon8513 got em….
Con ninguno ya que ninguno de los hermanos fue peace officer en Monmouth
I know this is a bit late but the context of the gun spinning in the saloon was that Ringo was trying to show his dexterity and deadlines with a pistol and Doc's response was that it was a show to him. He doesn't go out like that unless there are true stakes. Hence why he played it off like a "Anyone can do that with anything but what do you really have?" Sort of statement. The great thing about tombstone was all the underlying tones beneath what Ringo and Doc actually said.
this is on my list of top 5 all time favorite films. an absolute banger. Wyatt Earp was a lawman in central Kansas that was pretty legendary post civil war. Kurt Russel plays him here. Bill Paxton and Sam Elliot play his brothers Virgil and Morgan. other family members actually did join Wyatt in Tombstone but the film only centers around the trio.
Val Kilmer's best role ever! Brilliant movie, brilliant cast. You can't help but like this movie.
My husband and I LOVE this movie! Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday was incredible. "Poor soul. You were just too high strung." Then, "I'm afraid the strain was more than he could bear." 😂😂 Cracks me up every time!
I always thought what made those lines so funny is that John Ringo was officially killed by suicide. The single shot to the head, and one bullet fired from his pistol being the primary evidence. Doc was still trolling him in death and how history would see him.
My favorite quotes were all from Doc Holiday. "Maybe poker just isn't your game. I know, how about a spelling contest." 😂😂😂😂😂
This cast was stellar - I love Kurt Russell, and I love Val Kilmer. The girl was Dana Delaney and her acting partner was Billy Zane. I have a t-shirt with Val's face that says I'm Your Huckleberry.
Here's a pop trivia question for you: Which other actor appeared in another hit movie with Billy Zane?
Answer: Bill Paxton (Morgan Earp) was in Titanic with Billy, though the two never has a scene together in that one.
The phrase is actually on your huckleberer. The huckle Is the handle on the side of the casket, Meaning I'll put you underground
I saw this in the theaters when it came out, half because it looked like a great movie, and half because the cast was like reading a list of my favorite actors: Kurt Russell, Val Kilmer, Sam Elliott, Bill Paxton, Powers Boothe, Michael Biehn, Michael Rooker, Harry Carey, even frickin' Charlton Heston - how could a cast like that possibly make a bad movie?
Val Kilmer killed it in this movie.
In my humble opinion he made this movie a classic.
Asia: "I'm diggin' all these top hats though."
Hint, BJ, you need a top hat. LOL
Was there a single person in the entire film wearing a top hat?
@@tonyhoable technically not but you know.
@@tonyhoable Maybe Dana Delaney when she was riding sidesaddle? ;^)
@@matthewgrand4791 i see what you are saying but no. Thats not even a top hat.
What I love about the scene at 35:16 is it's a callback to the beginning of the movie where the priest quotes revelations to the cowboys following the massacre: "Behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him."
The first gunfight is the Gunfight at the OK Corral. In the scene where Ringo says "Smells like someone died" if you look behind Wyatt and the wagon you can see the sign that says OK Corral.
Another 'based on real life' western style film that's definitely worth your time imo is 1969's "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" with Paul Newman and Robert Redford, who also lit up the screen, and a lot of ladies' hearts, in 1973's "The Sting" where they came up with the most elaborate scheme to con a mob boss ever! Both films are in my 'top favorites' list.💖✌
also, check out "the Long Riders"....it's about Jesse James, his brother, his three cousins (the Youngers) and two other sets of brothers....where the characters are brothers, the actors playing them were brothers....James and Stacy Keach played Frank and Jesse James, the Carradine brothers (David, Keith, and Robert) played the Youngers, Randy and Dennis Quaid play the Miller brothers......
This is up there as one of my favorite western movies. The coolest thing I didn't find out till later in life is that the fight at the OK corral is so well documented, because there was a real life investigation into it, that the movie they match who shot whom and what went down as close as possible to the real thing. I also love the friendship between Wyatt and Doc, a law man and a gunslinger. Doc is the most interesting character in the whole movie because he knows he's going to die so he has nothing to lose.
Cast:
Wyatt Earp - Kurt Russell
Morgan Earp - Bill Paxton
Virgil Earp - Sam Elliott (think Roadhouse)
Josephine Marcus - Dana Delany (She’s been in lots of movies/tv shows, but she’s probably best known for her role as Colleen McMurphy in China Beach.)
Mr. Fabian - Billy Zane (You may recognize him as Cal Hockley in Titanic. He also played The Phantom.)
Johnny Ringo - Michael Biehn (He was Kyle Reese in The Terminator, and he played Corporal Hicks in Aliens.)
Doc Holliday - Val Kilmer (Who was also Ice Man in Top Gun.)
Ike Clanton - Stephen Lang (His role as Colonel Quaritch in Avatar was a night and day difference from his role as the spineless Clanton in Tombstone.)
Sherman McMasters - Michael Rooker (He’s been in everything from Mississippi Burning to The Walking Dead. Such a great actor!)
Johnny Tyler - Billy Bob Thornton (Before he played Karl Childers in Sling Blade.)
In case you wanted to know... The scene in the bar where theyre speaking in Latin...
The latin translation:
Doc Holliday: In Vino Veritas.
[In wine is truth. - Meaning - "When I'm drinking, I speak my mind."]
Johnny Ringo: Age Quod Agis. [Do what you do. Meaning -"Do what you do best."
Doc Holliday: Credat Judaeus Apella, Non
Ego. [The Jew Apella may believe it, not I. Meaning-"Oh I don't believe drinking is what I do best."]
Johnny Ringo: Eventus Stultorum Magister. [Events are the
teachers of fools. - Meaning - "Fools have to learn by experience."]
Doc Holliday: In Pace Requiescat. [Rest in peace - Meaning- "It's your
funeral!"
