Tombstone-Ok Corral

The gunfight at the OK Corral took only about 30 seconds. Those 30 seconds made Wyatt Earp famous, but not until about 50 yrs later. About 30 shots were fired and in those days they didn't have…Continue

Vito Fashoda replied to John Olexa's discussion Doc Holliday A Family Portrait
"Dennis Quaid played Doc in "Wyatt Earp". I think his problem was that he tried to hard. He overacted the southern part which made it look faked."

Buck Grizzly said… Yep I got to work on Tombstone for 2 1/2 months, played a buckaroo (not credited) the first 3 days at the Springs when Curly got killed. That was the best pay I got, had dialogue and did a running gun battle that was cut completely out of the movie. I did extra work for the rest of the time. Was a drunk, a miner, a townsperson, and a few other back ground characters in the scene where Wyatt slaps around Billy Bob Thornton, I am the drunk smoking a cigar and drinking a beer closest to Kirk and the bartender when they are talking. The other best shot I had was when Doc and Wyatt walk away from the OK Corral and the crowds splits to let them through. In the middle of the pack up front facing the camera, there is a guy dressed like the blue Mario Brother. That’s me too. I'm in about 14 spots if you know where to look, it was a lot of fun and I learned a lot from talking to the historians who worked on the movie as well.
