Wyatt Earp vs Tombstone
Both of these movies are about the same time, came out the same time, are about the same guys. And I enjoyed both of them. But Wyatt Erp can be tough to sit through. It's an Epic length film and it's paced that way. Both Costner and Russell play Wyatt as the Pistol Whippin' Sonovabitch that he was. But it's hard to accept Kurt mustache even though its real. And as good as Quade's Doc is Kilmer's is that much better. So it kind of balances out. So if you need epic length, my advice it take the beginning of Wyatt Earp, up until they head out West, and tack it on the front of Tombstone. Best of both worlds! It may be tough to see Costner turn into Russell, but you can put Earp's getting shorter and meaner down to getting older. And you'll get to see Quade turn into Kilmer! You can just put his getting skinnier and crazier down to the booze and the tuberculosis.

Trivia

Wyatt Earp is often erroneously regarded as the central figure in the shootout near OK Corral but his brother Virgil was Tombstone city marshal and deputy U.S. marshal that day, and had far more experience as a sheriff, constable, marshal, and soldier in combat. Wyatt being the more famous brother originates largely from his own self promotion.

Quotes

Bessie Earp: We are your wives. Don't we ever count more than the damn brothers?
Wyatt Earp: No, Bessie, you don't. Wives come and go, that's the plain truth of it. They run off. They die.

Goofs

'Bat' and Ed Masterson are claimed in the film to be the only two boys in their family. ('Only one measly brother?'). In fact, the Mastersons were a family of five boys and two girls. (Plus parents, of course. Also, it is unclear as to how many of the kids survived childhood.)

Alternate Versions

In the USA, Wyatt Earp was also Released on LaserDisc and VHS Expanded Edition. Both had a Running Time of 212 Minutes (3Hrs 32 Minutes)
