My Darling Clemantine
Starring Henry Fonda as Wyatt Earp
Directed by John Ford.
Superb black and white photography and well acted. Ford even knew Wyatt Earp back in the twenties, who told him exactly how the Gunfight at the OK Corral took place. So you can expect to see the most accurate version of that event right? Wrong! There were characters there who should not have been, while others who were there, were not shown at all. Doc Holliday even gets shot and dies when even I knew he died of consumption a few years afterwards. Other events and characters leading up to the shoot out were also changed.
