Slappy McGee's 3rd MannVanuary - 2024.
***************
Well... the movie OPENS with the Gunfight at the OK Corral! I mean, right out of the gate - er - so to speak.
No squirreling around, folks! Let's do this!
James Garner stars as Wyatt Earp and Jason Robards plays his hard-drinking sidekick Doc Holliday as they work together to try to bring Ike Clanton and his gang to justice... one way or the other.
It's a greatly spun western tale with plenty of gunplay, horseback riding and a solid score by Jerry Goldsmith to boot. Great direction by John Sturges who just proves how awesome he is at unfolding a story.
Great flick.
