Tombstone
After retiring as a U.S. Marshall in Dodge City, Wyatt Earp and his brothers and their wives go to Tombstone, Arizona to go into business, where silver has just been discovered. Wyatt Earp plans on being a dealer at a saloon known as the Oriental. Right away, people begin to fear him and recognize him as the person he used to be, a Marshall, even though he insists he is retired, and wants to move on with his life. In Tombstone, Wyatt meets his good friend Doc Holiday, the rebellious rogue that causes trouble, but is lucky to be not in jail. From the start, things start going the other way for Wyatt. Wyatt's wife has an on going "headache" and begins to drink opium as if it were water. Then, the "Cowboys," a group of outlaws and bad guys wearing red sashes come into the mining town. Doc Holiday's reputation as a skilled gunfighter causes disliking from the Cowboys, and as soon as they meet each other, they start bad mouthing each other. One day, a group of entertainers come into the town, including the beautiful lady by the name of J
He also thinks the Earps and Doc Holiday were "in it together," and he storms out. Wyatt starts to actually think about those little things that don't really bring up to attention, and begins to fall for Josephine, with her "room service" life and happiness. Outside, the Cowboys are also furious and they tell the Earps that if they want to fight, meet them at the O. osephine, who falls in love with Wyatt Earp. Wyatt is impressed at her beauty but does not show it because he is married now. During the entertainers' show, the Cowboys start some trouble by accurately missing the actors on stage, to make a fool out of them. It really brought out the emotions and the feelings the Earps had against the Clantons. However, things start to rough up again with the Clantons and the Earps. The scenes flowed so well that you could pretty much make out the cause and effects of the tension between the two families and really see what events triggered the harshest parts of the feud. Also, as Doc Holiday plays poker with a Cowboy, Doc Holiday wins all the earnings and the Cowboy feels he is cheated. The next day, Wyatt thinks matters has gone too far, and becomes a Marshall again. Doc Holiday dies shortly after due to Tuberculosis.
