This movie's a prime example of how character actors make movies great.
@BrimsHL4 жыл бұрын
It's also a prime example on how sometimes actors can make the movie even better. Kurt Russell ended up ghost directing the movie. Stallone recommended this director because the director lets actors take over. Now that's not always a good thing, a great director needs to make their own movies. However Kurt Russell wanted to direct his own movie but from the side and this director was cooperative with that idea. Not only that this movie ended up being much better than Kevin Costner's movie. Kevin Costner and the actors in that other movie just appeared weak and not as cool as all the actors in this movie. Kurt Russell just has more of a dominating presence than Kevin Costner. Then again Snake is a lot more charismatic than Robin Hood. everybody at the time thought that the Kevin Costner movie was going to be the better version, and it turns out that Kurt Russel's movie is not only better in the cool department it's also a better quality movie with much better performances. Especially from Val kilmer. across the board the actors are way better on this movie than on the Costner one

Doc : In vino veritas. Ringo : Age quod agis. Doc : Credat Judaeus Apella, non ego. Ringo : Juventus stultorum magister. Doc : In pace requiescat! Doc : In wine there is truth. Doc Holiday is excusing his own behavior here, and further insulting Johnny Ringo by saying that he is drunk, and saying truthful things he would otherwise not reveal. He had previously said he hated Johnny Ringo for being similar to himself. Ringo : Do what you do / Watch what you do. This is one of the most interesting lines because it means more than just watch what you do. The line can be interpreted as be careful, or people do what they do (saying that Doc Holiday is drunk because he is a drunkard), and it can also mean something along the lines of do what you do best, which would be gunfight since Ringo had apparently heard of Holiday's skill. It is a challenge and an insult combined into one. Doc : Tell it to someone else, not I. This line is dismissive. Doc Holiday is conveying the fact that he doesn't care what Johnny Ringo is saying and that he doesn't care what his advice is. A common Latin saying meaning "Let the Jew Apella believe it; not I". The phrase means, roughly, tell it to someone else, not me. The reference is taken from the work Satires (book one, satire five) by ancient poet Horace. It is derived from a scene where people try to convince travellers of miracles happening at their shrines. The phrase is uttered to convey the disbelief and that they should tell their stories to someone else. Ringo : Youth is the teacher of fools. When Ringo taps his pistol he says this, which conveys the idea that Doc Holiday is inexperienced (youthfull) and ignorant of the danger he is getting himself into. "Juventus stultorum magister" is a common Latin aphorism, or phrase that has many implied and implicit meanings. The sentance translates to "youth is the teacher of fools". Juventus isn't really a latin word, they didn't use the letter 'J' so it is really Iuventus, which is in the nominative case (subject of the sentence), and it means youth or adolescence. Stultorum is a latin derivation of the word stultus, stulti which means fool. The "orum" ending places it in the genative case, used (most frequently) to show possesion. Hence of fools. Magister literally means teacher or schoolmaster. It is in the Nominative case as well. There is an implied transitive verb such as "is" which would require the nominative case on both sides of the verb. Hence we have: "Youth is the teacher of fools". Doc : Rest in peace! To end the conversation Doc Holiday throws the previous warning back into Ringo's face. Doc tells him to rest in peace, or to die, because Ringo is unaware of the danger that Doc presents.

It all seemed friendly though and not some Hollywood star power play. Maybe Russel just thought he had better ideas and wanted Kazmartis to still get his paycheck so maybe Kazmartis handled the technical aspects of directing while Russel did creative. Minty kind of jumped through that one quickly, seems there's more to that very interesting story.

There are a lot of movies based on the story. My Darling Clementine with Henry Fonda as Wyatt was directed by John Ford, who knew Wyatt Earp earlier in Ford's career and wanted to make a film about him. Side note, a young assistant tasked with fetching coffee for the old lawman was Marion Morrisey, who went on to base some of his onscreen mannerisms on him. Morrisey went on to make a career under the name John Wayne.

Um, "Glory" is in no way, shape, or form a Western. Also, I'd say the Western revival was started with "Pale Rider" and "Silverado". Love your channel, by the way (other than that one video)!

Tombstone is one of my all time favorite Western movies. Even my mom who always enjoyed watching TV Westerns from the late 50's and Western movies as well as I. She really enjoyed seeing Tombstone when I took her to see it at the theater. Her favorite character was Doc Holliday portrayed by Val Kilmer.
