Wyatt Earp and His Immortals

Rating: 10/10 (15 March 2008)

Classic! As long as this film is shown, it will gain new fans and Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday will live forever. Great script, strong story based on historical events, great actors, classic scenes. The dialogue is superb: "I'm your huckleberry," "Are you going to just stand there and bleed?" "I'm coming, and hell's coming with me!" etc. Iconic scenes: Johnny Ringo and Doc Holliday in saloon, pistolero/tin cup scene; gunfight at OK Corral; gunfight at the spring; Ringo/Holliday shootout, etc. Unusual depictions of opium-smoking, Earp's wife's addiction to laudanum, old Western funeral. The most memorable quotes in any movie, ever.
If you want depth, rent Lonesome Dove. If you want sheer entertainment, watch this and I dare you not to quote it!
