TOMBSTONE has the BEST cast
first time watching Tombstone movie reaction
#tombstone #moviereaction #firsttimewatching
Doc Holiday ( Val Kilmer) scene: “I have 2 guns, one for each of you “, he spins the pistols, each in opposite directions. Amazing gun handling by Val Kilmer.
The Earps weren't all good - they were into prostitution for a time. That's why Ike calls Virgil a pimp. That also explains the comment about where the Earps found their wives. Wyatt's wife was addicted to laudanum, basically opium dissolved in ethyl alcohol. Wife is a bit of a stretch - at least Wyatt and Maddie were common law. Doc is dying from tuberculosis. That explains his recklessness in gun fights - he knows he's dying so he's not afraid to die. Look on YT for a video that explains what Doc and Johnny Ringo were saying to each other when they were speaking Latin. It's very interesting. Doc lightened the mood in the saloon but if you notice, he copied Ringo's every movement. In real life, Curley Bill's shooting of Fred was an accident. In the movie you can hear Curley Bill calling to Fred - it was an accident in the movie, too. When Wyatt goes on his vendetta, two of the three men who throw in with him were the same two who got arrested for shooting outside the saloon in the beginning. They are "Texas Jack" Vermillion and John "Turkey Creek Jack" Johnson. You noticed that the third is Sherman McMasters, who left The Cowboys. He's the one who showed remorse in the beginning in the wedding scene. The shootouts in the corral and at the river happened just about as they were filmed. The duel between Doc and Johnny was fiction - Johnny was found dead, shot in the head. Nobody was ever incriminated. What Doc thought was funny at the end was that he intended to die with his boots on in a gunfight and instead he died in bed.
The actor who played Johnny Ringo is the same who played Kyle Reese in The Terminator. Morgan Earp was played by the same actor who played one the three thugs in the beginning scene of The Terminator.
Funny thing to me is how, when a drunk Ringo confronts Wyatt on the street and nearly gets into a gunfight with him Ringo's buddies just watched. But when Holliday gets involved Ringo's buddies run over and stop it, and make excuses to Doc for Ringo's behavior -- "He's drunk, that's all." They knew Ringo could take Wyatt, drunk or not, but he would not win in a fight with Doc. My favorite Western!
Another thing i love, that i don't see many people mention was the part where Beehan, (or whatever that a-hole's name is), is talking about Tombstone being sophisticated when suddenly a shot rings out coming from a near by saloon before Creek and his bud end up coming out and having to kill a drunk dude calling them cheaters. When that initial shot goes off - Beehan and all the Earps, including Wyatt, jump outa their skin for a second, all except for Doc. He was completely unfazed, you don't even see him flinch a little. He's just such a complete badass in this movie! Val not only deserved the oscar for this, this legit is one of the best acting performances in all of film history, let alone the best supporting performance that year! He also deserved one for "The Doors," and "Heat" too. IMO he's legit one of the top ten greatest actors of the past 30 to 40 years, while also being easily one of - if not the single - most underrated actor of all time in my book!
Great reaction! Val absolutely kills it as Doc!
Great reaction. Val Kilmer really stole the show with this role. Doc Holiday was a real historical person and it is reported that his last words were like in the movie. He looked at his feet and said "This is funny" This is because he lived a very dangerous life and people like that usually died with their boots on. However he was able to beat the odds and died peacefully in his bed with his shoes off.
11:29, Doc Holiday not only made a full out of Ringo, he reproduced all of his moves with that tin cup while almost practically drunk. Ringo walks away because he realizes he has been mocked but also that Doc has a keener eye for details that he thought.
Doc also wins because Ringo just gave away how fast he is while Doc gave away nothing.
It's subtly stated, but if you watch Johnny's reaction to Doc with the cup, he knows right then that Doc is faster. The only time he actually agrees to fight him after that, he's so wasted he doesn't realize Doc already has a gun drawn. He tries to get out of their fight at the end, and the only reason he ultimately agrees is because he thinks Doc's been deputized, which means he doesn't really have a choice (at least none that his ego will allow). He was probably hoping the guy would just drop dead from TB for most of the movie.
I've never read a better explanation of that scene!
Both Johnny Ringo & Doc Holiday were expert pistoleers. Both men knew exactly what to look for in their opponent. Both men walked away from that confrontation knowing that Doc Holiday was the better of the two.
Doc wasn't really evil he just decided to live the rest of his life however he wanted and he wouldn't accept any disrespect
I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you, in that he wasn't all bad, but history records him as a cold blooded killer.
He was in constant pain from the T.B. too, which is why he was drunk most of the time.
"You can't fault Sam Elliot. For anything." 💯😂
Doc Holiday had a quote attributed to him (that was common then). " I swear, I will die with my boots on." It is true that just before his death, he looked down at his bare feet and chuckled, at his hypocrisy that knows no bounds.
Ringo, was actually killed a few years later in Mexico, in a bar fight. They just added that in the movie for "dramatic license" .
Actually Ringo is listed as suicide, but looks like homicide. Although it was a couple years later, some believe Doc did sneak back to face Ringo. That's why he was making it look like a suicide. -to align with the legend.
@@barbarapacker5722 yeah, ringo was found up against a tree, with one shot fired from his gun and a bullet wound in his left temple, if you notice, Doc shoots him in the left temple, he walks him to the tree, and ringo tries to get one shot off, which fulfills all of the things that were found at the time
I had to subscribe when you mentioned Lonesome Dove. Definitely top 3 on my list of westerns. Val Kilmer should have won an Oscar for his portrayal of Doc Holiday
The epitaph you see at the beginning about Lester Moore is a real headstone at the Tombstone cemetery.
Bill Paxton. Bill Pullman was in the other Wyatt Earp movie of the same name, that came out about the same time....with Kevin Costner.
The "Sir with the glasses" (art lover) was famous at this time with his lead on the hot show 90210. Jason Preistley.
I think we’re all with you in “being here for Doc & Wyatt.”
There are at least four feature-length films based on the events in Tombstone in 1881, of which this one is the most historically accurate. But they’re all fun to see.
...whoo... who... who ARE you...?!?!
That was awesome!!! 😂😂😂
Ima gonna keep comin' back here whenever I needs me a pick me up!
One of my favorite Westerns. Moustache heaven.
If you haven't seen 3:10 to Yuma 2007 or True Grit 2010, I think you would enjoy both. There is also a Netflix series that is pretty good called Godless
I haven’t seen Godless but I LOVE those movies 💖
'Virgil's (wounded arm and leg) in the car with the women.' "I got him.'--Typical Ike Clanton. What a cockroach.
Ike also died just a couple years later. He was the instigator of the whole thing, (the Clanton's) and he did leave town during the raid of "The Immortals".
What I love about Tombstone is that of all of the movies about Wyatt Earp, this is the only one that portrays him as, how you stated it, morally ambigous.
In real life, Wyatt Earp (like most of us) had a been both good and bad, and had been on both sides of the law. He was no saint though that's how he was portrayed.
Oh, and though Hollywood portrays most men as wearing cowboy hats, most men of the era wore bowler hats. They were very fashionable.
You might be my long lost twin with the way you commented and crushed on Doc and Ringo too. This is one hell of an amazing cast and movie. Glad you enjoyed it as much as you did!
So, if you need to love all the bad men, you need to watch Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.
Btw... the narrator of this flick, Robert Mitchum, was in his fair share of westerns, much less an outstanding body of work in other genres of film.
Have you seen, Open Range with Kevin Costner? Now, that’s a good one!
This cast and the effort put into these characters made for a stellar movie. Everyone felt like they belonged in Tombstone. That's brilliant work.
Val Kilmer is one of the most underappreciated actors of his generation to my mind. He deserved an Oscar for a perfect performance in Tombstone alone. He is just amazing. He has done roles from silly (Top Secret and, to a lesser extent, Real Genius) to serious (Doc Holliday here and Jim Morrison in The Doors)and a variety in between such as Iceman in Top Gun and Simon Templar/The Saint in the movie The Saint (not a great movie, but a great role to show his chameleon skills).
And again the rule of Michael Biehn remains true: if he has a mustache, he's the villain, like here and The Abyss. If he's clean shaven, he's a hero, like Terminator and Aliens. 😀 The only exception I've seen was on The Mandolorian. 😛
On top of his outstanding performance, Russell actually directed (unofficially) most of the picture because the 'official' director both had health issues and was out of his depth with a period piece that included so many action set pieces. This was basically an open secret for decades and Russell only publicly acknowledged what happened (with corroboration from his costars) after Cosmatos passed away.
Wyatt Earp was a law man in Dodge City Kansas before all of this. He was just as they describe. Dodge City was a jumping off point for almost every person during that time period, heading west. Therefore, Wyatt ended up running into everyone as they passed by, then he went and caught up to the bad ones.
Tombstone still keeps their "Old Town" preserved (most of the shops are gift shops now). The Crystal Palace, the Oriental and Big Nosed Kate's saloons are still there in operation. A scheduled reenactment of the OK corral fight happens in the original alley that it happened. A little over an hour drive southeast of Tucson.
Awesome reaction of my favorite movie!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊
After Ringo's "fancy gun-play" when you said, "An now take me home," legit had me bustin a gut! Your hilarious lol
Bump these comments up. Laura you rule 💯
If you love Lonesome Dove and the Western genre in general, you should watch Open Range with Kevin Costner and Robert Duvall. Great reaction.
A perfect ensemble from top to bottom.
Everybody always quotes Doc (as they should) but everybody else seems to overlook Wyatt's "you gonna do something or just stand there and bleed?"
Ice cold.
Great movie and good reaction. If you love westerns, I suggest the HBO show Deadwood.
Are you kidding me right now? A fellow Lonesome Dove lover! Well, all I have to say about that is...Laura Darlin', you're as fresh as the morning. ❤❤❤
Kurt Russell: "This is my movie."
Val Kilmer (in Doc's voice): "I beg to differ, suh."
There were actually 𝙏𝙒𝙊 Wyatt Earp movies that came out that year. The other one, 𝘞𝘺𝘢𝘵𝘵 𝘌𝘢𝘳𝘱, with Kevin Costner in the title role, wasn't as good as this one. But, Dennis Quaid's performance as Doc Holliday was, IMNSHO, just as good as Val Kilmer's. I was 𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙘𝙠𝙚𝙙 that they weren't both nominated for Best Supporting Actor that year - I really expected the Oscar to come down to the "battle of the Doc Hollidays".
I loved your reaction. Doc Holliday was educated and a practicing Dentist by trade, for a couple of years. He lost his practice because of gambling and he shot and killed a man. His mother had TB and he took care of her and caught it himself. He moved to Tombstone for the drier climate.
Back off, girl. Ringo (Michael Biehn) is MINE 😂
Easily Val Kilmer's best role. Michael Biehn as Ringo 'killed' also. It took me forever to realize that he was also Kyle Reese in Terminator. Unforgiven is the next best western.
The “I’ve killed women and children…” scene in Unforgiven is one of my all time favorites 💖
If you haven't seen 80's cult comedy 'Three O'Clock High' 1987, i recommended it. It's got a great 'bleed' line in it.
Fred White was played by Harry Carey Jr. A legend in westerns. He was in 9 westerns with John Wayne, 7 seven directed by John Ford. His father Harry Carey also a western legend, His first film in 1909 was a western, followed by more, he was also in Red River, with John Wayne and Montgomery Clift. He was nominated for best supporting actor for Mr.Smith Goes to Washington, staring Gary Cooper.
Yep. A lot of people miss that and other cast members. Christopher Mitchum is one of the cowhands at the ranch with Charlton Heston. Mitchum also did a few westerns with John Wayne. It amazes me that people forget his dad Robert Mitchum is doing the narration.
Best tombstone reaction I've ever seen. Thank you
Everyone loves the idea of lawlessness until it comes to their doorstep...
Although the woman was riding a pale horse which is a bit symbolic. The actual pale horse death (wyatt) was riding was doc holiday.
The Latin conversation between Doc and Ringo is the most badass scene, loosely translated and with my own modernizing, Doc says, " In wine there is truth " Ringo says, " Do what you do best " accusing Doc of being nothing but a drunk, now knowing that Ringo speaks Latin Doc smiles and to show off his excellent education responds by quoting an ancient Latin writing that meant " go tell a fool " letting Ringo know that is not what he does best. . Ringo while tapping the handle of his pistol responds, "A fool must learn by experience. " Doc coldly and confidently, almost dismissively, ends the conversation by telling Ringo, "It will be your funeral" followed by silence. There are no perfect movies but there are perfect scenes, that was one of them.
Great commentary! You definitely have to watch No Country for Old Men to see the classic western deconstructed.
LONESOME DOVE 😍😍😍
11:10 that is where doc gets into Ringo's head. Ringo showed his best moves, then doc , really drunk, repeats his entire routine with a cup.
Off the cuff. Totally messed Ringo up.
If you love Westerns, check out "Open Range," from 2003, if you haven't seen it already. It's a really terrific film that somehow fell through the cracks and got missed by a lot of people, which is surprising when you consider it was directed by Kevin Costner and stars Costner, Robert Duvall, and Annette Bening. (Any time you have a Western with Robert Duvall in it, you've already won.)
The opening sequence is indeed full of bad men. What comes next reveals the film
I love Val Kilmer as Doc, he did an amazing job
We are all Doc Holiday girls. Even us guys. 😂
The earps were also criminal law enforcement
I don't know which Westerns you've seen. Here are some better known ones you might have seen, or should if you haven't.
The Magnificent Seven (1960)
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
Silverado
The Angel and the Badman (remake with Lou Diamond Philips)
Cowboys and Aliens (a Western/SciFi hybrid)
An obscure one I also recommend is The Ballad of Little Jo, from the 90s
The reason the cowboys get in trouble is because they are a murderous gang
I do love westerns for many reasons. mostly bc i watched many with my dad. but also i like the outfits of the era. western proves that man can look good and still masculine in tall boots ...not just sneakers like these days.
also that scene in a salon where ringo and doc have a lil competition between each other. Doc mimicked perfectly with his cup every move of ringo. This scene tells the audience how great Doc was with firearms. it wasn't just a silly act on the doc side.
Thank you.
If you have not already seen it, might I suggest you would enjoy the late eighties movie "Road House" (1989), it has more of Mr. Elliott.
Historical Trivia: During most of the movie, including during the "Gunfight at the OK Corral" Josephine - the dusky hued devil - is seeing John Behan the Cochise county sheriff who tries to prevent the gunfight saying, "I disarmed them." So, when Mattie - Wyatt's common-law wife - runs up while, Josephine and Wyatt are obliviously exchanging heated glances in the wake of the gunfight, Behan is standing right there too.
Medical Trivia: Doc Holiday is dying Tuberculosis, everyone at the time knew this, there was no cure - effective treatments were not created until the middle of the twentieth century. We may see "Big Nose" Kate's feeding him tobacco and alcohol as horrible, but it seems likely from the portrayal that Doc wanted to enjoy what life he had rather than stretch it out in abstinence.
I hope the trivia was of interest, I could not help but share it.
There are ideologies and philosophies in movies that I live by.
Woodrow F Call; lonesome dove. (I will not tolerate rudeness in a man).
Everything but the final showdown between Doc and Ringo did not occur. He was found dead under a tree, but Doc was miles away at the time.
The line... you gonna do something or just stand there and bleed... comes from the movie The Outlaw Josey Wales with Clint Eastwood. Apparently whoever wrote this script recycled the line.
Close: Josey Wales: Are you gonna pull those pistols or whistle Dixie?
@@barbarapacker5722 Nope, that is what he said to the two Soldiers. That is not the scene.
You probably already know this by now, but Laudanum was a combination of the raw forms of opium and cocaine.
IIRC, it was opium mixed with alcohol, no cocaine.
Brilliant loving❤ reaction but the whole cast was phenomenal
Kate knew the score, she’s just putting on a brave face. Doc was loving with a death sentence, and she’s letting him live the time he has left as himself, instead of as a miserable invalid. It’s a bit enabling, but also, can you blame her?
Great Reaction! Subscribed. Would like to see you react to "Nobody" with Bob Odenkirk and/or John Wick 2014 with Keanu Reeves
I'd love for you to do a Dark Crystal Age of Resistance reaction.
God please stop talking over this movie
I really like her and I enjoyed the reaction, but (constructive criticism ahead) the constant commenting really broke the tension in some of the best scenes. Less is more.
You didn't identify Jason Priestly or Michael Rooker.
I understand admiring the acting, but Johnny Ringo was evil. He mocked Wyatt saying it smelled like death.
Piercing flaw. Wyatt rubs a bloody thumb, and leaves no mark.
These people did indeed exist.
She's doing what he wanted her to do I'm so in love with big nose kate
Lonesome Dove woo Robert devall Tommy Jones Danny Glover Ricky schoderr d b Sweeney that was the absolutely best Western film made
"Gunfight at the OK Corral" with Burt Lancaster and Kirk Douglas is probably the better version. The further away we get from the western time period almost starts being about the actors and mot the events. But, to each their own.
Isn't that the one where the gunfight lasts for 10 minutes?
Yeah, I don't know how long the ok corral version with James Garner is but the cast were more genuine than portrayals of the gunfight these days. Also Dennis Hopper played a great part too with Burt. Dennis played a similar role in one of John Wayne's movies as well.
Great movie and Lancaster and Douglas are a great duo. Can't find too many better actors than those two guys.
Not the event
