Ойын-сауық

It's said to be the Western for people who don't get into Westerns, but does the Wyatt Earp and Doc Holiday flick still hold up after so many years? Nostalgia Critic takes a look at Tombstone.

    "I'm your Huckleberry" - It was a pretty commonly used term in the South. There's been a lot of discussion over the meaning ever since Val Kilmer uttered it in the film. Basically “I'm your huckleberry” means “Name the place, and I'll go with you,” “Name the job and I can do it,” “I'll oblige you” or “I'm your man.”

    It was something of a mistake, or an attempt at slang. The term was "huckle bearer" as in someone that would carry your casket. It had something of a double meaning, depending on how it was used, towards a friend, it would mean "got your back until the end" while said to an enemy... Well, think everyone can figure that one out.

    @@Jetsetradio This is correct. It also, funny enough, coincides with Kilmer's accent. If you slow his words down, he sure sounds like he is saying "huckle bearer." But since Huckle bearer and Huckleberry sound so utterly close, you can interchangeably use them both and be right for the same meaning. So when Ringo asks "Do any of you have the guts to play for blood?!", Kilmer responding with either "Huckleberry" is like is saying "I'll play for blood" or "Huckle bearer" is like saying "I'll be carrying your casket after I shoot you."

    the "hucklebearer" interpretation is completely made up, its trolling from the early days of the internet that has persisted. Look up the word "huckle" and see if you find any mention of it in any source outside of something related to Tombstone that has anything to do with caskets or handles or pallbearers. On the other hand, "huckleberry" is a common plant, and its use in idiomatic expressions is undeniably documented and predates the invention of movies...including the phrase "I'm your huckleberry" which was slang for saying that one is precisely the right person for the matter at hand.

Not only was the movie portrayed almost accurately (even if the story was a little romanticized), not only were the actors top notch and badass, not only were the costumes perfect for the time period, but it also portrayed how cruel and unforgiving the Wild West was, how strong the Earps' brotherly love is, and the unbreakable friendship between Doc and Wyatt.

    Troubled Production: From the start, Kevin Costner was placing pressure on studios not to finance the picture (Tombstone and Wyatt Earp were two halves of the same project that more or less split off due to Creative Differences between Costner and writer Kevin Jarre), with Buena Vista (Disney) stepping up at the last minute. Disney refused to have anything to do with the original choice for Holliday, Willem Dafoe, due to the controversy still surrounding The Last Temptation of Christ. Jarre was originally set to direct, but was fired due to his refusal to cut the screenplay (both Kurt Russell and Val Kilmer have stated the original shooting script was about 30 pages too long). Disney hired George P. Cosmatos to finish the film; Kurt Russell (who had significant pull behind the scenes with both cast and crew) has in recent years made the claim that he directed the picture with Cosmatos as a front (he was the same guy who did Rambo: First Blood Part II, so he was at the very least agreeable to actor input), although Michael Biehn has denied Russell's claims, and at least some of Jarre's directorial work is still in the film. As a cherry on top of all of this, the actor playing Old Man Clanton, Robert Mitchum, was injured in a horse-riding accident, which led to the part being cut entirely (although Mitchum was able to do the beginning and ending narrations) and much of his dialogue given to Curly Bill.

    I was about 7 when my dad first showed me this movie, so the only parts that interested me was the gunfights, but I REALLY got into it. So much so that I used to shoot a cap gun along with the gunfights. And I hadn't seen it for years until it was recently added to Hulu a few months ago. My dad passed away about 5 and a half years ago, so I never got to properly appreciate this movie, but I've watched it several times in the past few months, so now I do enjoy this film for more than just the gunfights. I just wish I could have done that with my dad.

By the time he left dodge city he had only ever shot 1 man, despite being in many fights. Wyatt earp died without ever even being grazed by a bullet his whole life

I never liked westerns and this movie kinda scared me as a kid. I didn't like the violence. But after dad died, it's held a special place in my heart because it always reminds me of him. ❤️ I remember getting this movie on VHS, then DVD for my mom on separate occasions.

According to Russell, credited director George P. Cosmatos served merely to make things run smoothly. Michael Biehn denies this, however. In 2017 Kilmer stated that at the very least Russell poured in a massive amount of behind-the-scenes effort to keep the film on track after Jarre was fired, even going so far as to reduce his on-screen presence in order to focus on behind-the-scenes issues.

    The saloon scene between Johnny and Doc is significant because Ringo goes through a full gymnastics routine with a loaded gun in Doc's face, and not only does Doc not flinch; he reproduces the routine move for move with a tin cup, after seeing it once and while being funk as druck. It's Doc's way of letting him know he ain't afraid of Johnny, and by the look on his face, Johnny got the message.

    Notice how Val's able to twirl his akimbo Jakobs revolvers in two different directions with a cup hanging off one finger. Michael Biehn's gunslinger exhibition twirling is no less impressive. And yes, he was trained by a professional. Mike's always up for a challenge (like 'The Abyss'). Good for him too, because James Cameron was tough for most actors to work for/with (not for the same reasons as Stanley Kubrick), and Mike was to James Cameron what Bruce Campbell is to Sam Raimi. Edit/Note: I knew you'd reference the Michael Biehn "death curse." 15:18 They're not outlawing guns. That would be unconstitutional. They're only prohibiting them in town. And yes, the Constitution did apply to territories that fell under US jurisdiction. 16:24 The only dumb thing Doc does. He fires a warning shot out of a double-barrel shotgun. 17:03 The way that expression was actually used meant "I'm your friend," but the way it's used here, it means "I'm your man" (in the sense of being the person for "the job," whatever that happens to be). 21:54 Gotta wonder what he thought of the whole gun control bit. The real problem with the Old West wasn't lawlessness. It was the exact opposite extreme. The tyranny of legalism. Lawlessness is bad, don't get me wrong, but legalism is worse. "As above, so below." Tyranny attacks from above. Criminality attacks from below. The civilized folk in between, just trying to live their lives, get battered and smashed. All the more reason for The People to remain forever armed. 22:22 The real Johnny Ringo was found with a bullet hole in his right temple, not his left (and an exit wound out the back of his head). How they overlooked that detail is anyone's guess. "Do you expect me to believe that you don't know your left from your right?!"

    That’s one of my favorite western movies. Also, my favorite line is I’m your huckleberry from Val Kilmer.
