There, he would see them in a feud with the Clantons, a local clan of thugs and cattle thieves. When the showdown becomes inevitable, the help will come from Doc Holliday Kirk Douglas , a terminally-ill gambler who happens to be another Wild West legend. The Fiery Brilliance of 8 Great Stars Did you know Edit. Trivia The actual gunfight took place on October 26, and lasted thirty seconds, resulting in three dead men after an exchange of thirty-four bullets.
The fictionalized gunfight in this movie took four days to film, and produced an on-screen bloodbath that lasted five minutes. Goofs When the OK corral fight commenced, one of the Earp brothers fires a shotgun at the wagon the Clanton gang is in.
Ike yells "shotgun" and they duck. The pellets from the shotgun blast are clearly scene hitting the canvas on the wagon forming a large circle with the many different pellet holes. Two scenes later when they return to the same canvas all the pellet holes are gone. Quotes Wyatt Earp : All gunfighters are lonely. Mobile device. Xbox Description A gang of ruthless outlaws…a pair of larger-than-life heroes… a timeless tale of good versus evil. Cast and crew. John Sturges Director. It was actually a second fight but the movie makes it much more drawn out than that.
Lyle Bettger is Ike Clanton, the leader of the cattle-rustling gang. The movie has Ike dying there also but in fact he died 6 years later in a different altercation. It is a movie so the excursions away from historical fact are minor and fine, it is a very fine movie and both Lancaster and Douglas are in great form. Others may want to make a full pot of coffee before viewing "Gunfight at the O.
Could they stretch out the story of these characters any further? Anyway, it has some differences from other versions. Lancaster and Mr. Douglas are both good, and the film is mostly enjoyable if you like the epic western style represented; although, in my opinion, this isn't really the best version of the story. The singing of Frankie Laine was okay, but I confess to wondering, each time he sang, can this be near the end?.
I found myself bored, and read signs; for example, the "Eddie Foy" sign - that was a favorite. The signs that, finally say, "O. Corral" were signs of relief! Just like they said, the movie is O. John Sturges directs this story of lawman Wyatt Earp Burt Lancaster and Doc Holliday Kirk Douglas joining forces to run the criminal element out of Dodge City where Earp decides to retire from his long career that made him known throughout the land.
This is a very good western for its time. But historical inaccuracies work against this classic. Very impressive background score by Dimitri Tiomkin. As memorable as O. While you are at it Nevertheless bullets fly! Star-Studded Bloat dougdoepke 30 December Unfortunately this big production western is over-inflated. That's an endemic problem for movies of this expensive type.
The result here is that the story gets stretched out into too many subplots and a leisurely pace. Of course, the gunfight at OK Corral should be the centerpiece.
Instead, however, it's simply one more episode in an episodic narrative. First, we have to get through the many other gunfights and romantic interludes that stretch out the 2-hour run-time. Thus, the big showdown loses much of its in-built suspense.
It also doesn't help that the Clanton's, with the exception of Billy Hopper , are underwritten. In short, the bad guys are not etched strongly enough as individuals, which would have made the shootout more personal and suspenseful. That's not to say headliners Douglas Holliday and Lancaster Earp are not excellent in their roles. They are. It is to say that the Laura Fleming role should have been junked as unnecessary, glamour value or no, while Kate's VanFleet role should have been reduced since we get the idea early on.
Of course, Hollywood was still trying to out-compete TV in , which likely explains much of the movie's unnecessary sprawl. What the movie does do well is develop the friendship between Earp and Holliday, without sentimentalizing it. Also the VistaVision makes for an impressive visual experience that TV could not emulate. In passing—I don't go to movies for historical accuracy, nor do I expect it from an industry whose overriding object is profit.
The Gunfight at the O. Corral, Wednesday, October 26, , gets an all star glossy Hollywood telling. Music is by Dimitri Tiomkin and cinematography by Charles B. Lang Junior. I don't want any part of him. I don't even like him. Actually The Gunfight at the O.
Corral as a title is something of a bum steer, for Sturges' two hour movie gives up just over five minutes to the actual event that continues to fascinate over years later. In fact, for such a glorious sounding title, it's arguably surprising that there is very little action in the movie. For what unfolds in that two hour running time is what director Sturges would be bemused by its success and ten years later took another stab at the legend and made Hour of the Gun and leading actors agreed was a very talky movie, the emphasis is on a friendship, a love really, between John Henry "Doc" Holliday and Wyatt Berry Stapp Earp.
This is one of the Western genre's greatest "buddy-buddy" movies. Listen, preacher, being here is causing me a lot of embarrassment.
Some people are even taking me for a lawman. In spite of its talky nature and being very much a "town" Western, the film was hugely successful and became a leading forerunner for all star Westerns. It wasn't all sweetness and light, mind. In the beginning Douglas had already turned down the role of Earp before accepting the part of Holliday Bogart was close, Palance and Widmark also considered and Lancaster had to be "bribed" to take on the role of Wyatt being pretty vociferous about the talky nature of the screenplay.
The two leading men were initially at odds with each other, but they would form a respectful friendship from here on in and their chemistry as Doc and Wyatt is why the film succeeds as a "literate" piece. All gunfighters are lonely. They live in fear. They die without a dime, a woman or a friend. It has a mixed reputation amongst Western aficionados, which is understandable. Some of the dialogue is cheesy and the likes of Fleming and DeForest Kelley are in turn badly written and under used.
There's also the historical fudging of the story and the sparsity of landscape photography, the latter of which a crime given it's a VistaVision Technicolor production. It should have been titled Doc and Wyatt, though. LeonLouisRicci 13 May It just Talks and Talks, and Talks some more. Lee Van Cleef, Lee J. The Pacing is Excruciating. Writer Leon Uris needs a shout out Razzie in this mess, because He actually wrote a line that has one of the Earps saying "By golly" Before director John Sturges made "Gunfight at the O.
I'd say that "Gunfight at the O. Corral" was the first of his big-budgeted westerns at Paramount Pictures with Hal Wallis producing this polished looking horse opera. Things are pretty straightforward with Burt Lancaster cast as a stern but charismatic Wyatt Earp sans a mustache, while Kirk Douglas looks a mite too robust as the consumptive Doc Holiday.
This was the second time that Lancaster and Douglas had co-starred in a movie, but it was certainly the first of their best. One of the best known western villains from the era clashed with this pair of titans; Lyle Bettger played Ike Clanton.
He is thoroughly rotten to the core and holds his own against Lancaster. Composer Dimitri Tiomkin's orchestral score and the lyrics that Ned Washington and he co-wrote for the title ballad about the O. Corral are not only atmospheric but accentuate the action. The Ballad doesn't end with the opening titles but recurs throughout the action at dramatic points. Download Movie Watch Gunfight at the O.
