    Absolutely, he has every right to be pround of his whole performance. The character and Beihn's portrayal are both flawless. From the very first scene "Thats not what he said you ignorent wretch, your Spanish is worse than your English". The whole exchange with Holliday in Latin, lmao in the theater he says "I already did it" when Curly Bill asks him what he would do in Faust's position. I think Johnny Ringo is the 2nd best role/ performance, after Kilmer.

    That lateral spin Biehn does really sold it! I've seen people twirl guns in westerns before, but that flat lateral spin and fan that he was doing in the film was something I didn't even know you could DO. Twirling a gun and shooting a gun aren't the same thing, but the idea that Ringo could spontaneously whip out a twirling routine with a loaded gun and never drop it, have it fire, or slip in the slightest definitely gave him this aura of awesome! Biehn is always going to be one of my favorite guys due to the films he was in, and his routine here helped sell the finale in a BIG WAY. The better your villains look, the more outstanding the heroes look when they beat him!

Maybe Wyatt did over act in tumbstone arizona. Just seemed cheesy. To me. And slapping around Billy bob didn't cut it with me. Mr Thornton would have done a better job as Wyatt Earp. Just my 2cents. Also just to expound upon my earlier statement lots of real Texans in that room.why that should matter hell I don't know. But it just seems to. Texans are a differant type. More of a quiet professional. Lots of real bad asses in Texas.

Brilliant work by both actors at the height of their careers.

    "There was in the company of shooting men that I knew in my time a natural disdain for the type of man who flashed his pistols about with fancy tricks, high flying antics, that like. The man who lived by the gun was often times advised to avoid those sorts of foolishness as if they were a poison. Any gunman I ever met who was worth a damn drew out his pistol for a sole and absolute purpose of killing the other man before he could kill you. There would be no threats, no bluffs, no gimmicks. Even old Wild Bill, versed as he was well in ways of fancy pistol handling...

    So many great performances in Kurt Russell; Powers Boothe (God rest his soul); Michael Biehn; Stephen Lang (very underrated); the always great cowboy himself, Sam Elliot; and best of all, Val Kilmer, who was robbed of an Oscar. You also wouldn't be amiss to argue that there were probably more than one Oscar snub from Tombstone. Maybe not a popular opinion, but I think if the movie had better direction and it flowed a little better, it would have received more recognition. The editing wasn't very good IMO, it was choppy at times, and the ending seemed a little rushed with the montage scenes a little iffy. But the writing and the acting is what made this western probably the most iconic and the most memorable. It's one I can watch over and over and over again, I think I have the entire script memorized.

I was thinking about Biehn kind of scoffing at "did you already know how to do this?" because Val came into the movie knowing how to do that coin roll, that over-the-knuckles-and-through-the-woods routine he does when Doc is first introduced. Well, there's some other flick of his where his character is rolling quarters over both hands simultaneously; you know he came in with the spirit the question asker is first describing here: "hey! Look what I can do!" So the fact that he just had that cup with him everywhere on set is hysterical. He felt he needed to sharpen up some of his legerdemain as well haha

What he says about getting the routine correct 1 out of 10 times is so true. One little deviation to the momentum of how you’re twirling and the movement can just send the gun flying. I’m glad he threw in the tid bit about Val spinning the cup on set for hours. It’s the only way he could have convincingly done the routine with a tin cup. Spinning a gun is hard. Spinning a non-gun item in the way someone spins a gun is just baffling. What an amazing film.

I mean, he pulled off being one part wasted and one part sicker than a dog, the like i've never seen before or since. not to mention all his brilliantly delivered lines and facial expressions, he was a scene-stealer. Micahel was fantastic as well, in fact he was easily the next best part of that movie, and that's saying somethin - cuz curly Bill was brilliant as well. easily the most underrated western ever made, and Val's acting in it was easily the best of any western i've ever seen. Val is such an underrated actor in general, between this film or his roles in "The Doors," "The Ghost and The Darkness," "Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang," and "Heat" were all phenomenal as well.

    Agreed. Except for Tombstone being underrated. It isn't. Everyone I know say that it's either their favorite western or one of the best ever. I love it.

    There are some very good gun handling tricking in movies including Russel Crow in Quick and the Dead. However overall I would give the top prize to Michael Biehns portrayal of Johnny Ringo in Tombstone!
