TOMBSTONE "Best Doc Holiday Scenes" Part 1 (1993) Val Kilmer

[@morbiustimelord]

Michael Biehn as Ringo is criminally underrated in this movie. He played the perfect antagonist to Val Kilmer's Holiday.

[@abehambino]

Unfortunately he had to compete with Val for the spotlight, but he went toe to toe for sure! He played a magnificent villain!

His conversation with Ringo in Latin was pure genius. He spoke so genuine and eloquently, just for that he should have gotten an academy award.

[@shaynejenkins446]

That part of the movie was to show Ringo's knowledge of Shakespeare. Ringo never had any college education as he left home at the age of 18. But he read a lot of Shakespeare and that gave people the impression he had a college education.

I never met him, but have x-ed him several times and saw him portraying Twain in person right and he complained of throat pain after it. Grew up in the same childhood as you see in the documentary Val. He is really similar to one of my brothers from another mother back then. Me and my buddies heard he was going to play Morrison and we were not disappointed. Ecellent actor.

[@josebrown5961]

I have loved and watched him since “Top Secret.” At the time I didn’t know he was also quite the singer. He actually did a Soundtrack album for that got him to make full versions of the silly songs in the movie. He also played Jim Morrison and sang his own Doors songs for that. He has had some great roles and I was waiting to see what was next. I always thought that he was the more talented actor than Tom Cruise. (Not to poop on Cruise.

When Doc responded he repeated every move back to Ringo showing that he was the better gun fighter even when drunk. Ringo knew it by the look in his eyes, and that’s why he looked as he did when he realized it was Doc by the Oak tree before their duel. Watch it back.

That wasn't by accident. Kilmer did his research, including commissioning a linguistics expert for that time period. He wanted to know what kind of vocabulary, accent, intonation, and inflection a man like Holiday would use, given his education and geographical upbringing, eventually becoming a southern aristocrat. Kilmer practiced and refined his delivery to perfection. I remember an ET interview he did when this was released, where he said ultimately he was shooting for a very subtle, well-educated, Foghorn Leghorn. Made sense. His practice and refinement certainly paid off.

The scene where Ringo does the pistol dance in Docs face in front of everyone is one of the greatest beginnings to a character rivalry in all of film. Doc is a notorious marvel of a professional poker player and renowned, feared pistoleer of the west. Even as far as to say one of the best if not the best. Johnny Ringo also a notorious cowboy whose business is violence and also considered one of the best if not the best pistoleer in the west. When he does the pistol dance in docs face it's a challenge. He does the routine flawlessly, displaying his skill with pistols to flaunt and challenge docs notoriety and his skill to the death. When doc does the dance with a cup, he's mocking him, but the eye contact and the look on both of their faces, indicates Ringo is fearful of him and believes he is not good enough to truly beat holiday. Holiday doesn't even get serious with it, he makes it a joke. But they know behind the smooth words and light manner, he means business and can shoot you probably better. It's great scene.

[@scottbrannan7313]

The conversation in Latin is even better! ​ D-“In wine there is truth.” JR-"do what you do.” D-“Let the Jew Apella believe it; not I” JR “Experience is the teacher of fools.” Docs last line sets it off, "Rest in peace!"

[@td5046]

Absolutely the best rivalry in all of cinema

[@sydgerald]

The dance with the cup is indeed a way to mock Ringo, but I think also is a way in which inadvertently Doc displays his superior gun handling skills, how? because a cup is way lighter than a pistol, so is harder to control. And You're right, that scene is one of the greatest beginnings to a character rivalry. (Another film that portrays this kind of rivalry, where each part respect the other, is Heat, with Robert De Niro and Al Pacino.)

[@MrJakiecakes]

You might also notice that he perfectly copies every movement that Johnny made with his pistol, when he did it with the cup. To further mock him

[@BM-qn6fg]

Ringo also gave away a lot of his movements with that display that I’m sure Doc took note of…

[@iroquoispliskin8088]

Val Kilmer made this movie as great as it is. Without Val, Tombstone would not have been near as popular. What a hell of a performance with amazing character development. It's absolutely unacceptable that Kilmer didn't get an Oscar award or even a nomination for this role. Everyone knows that when you watch Tombstone, you're always looking forward to all of Holiday's scenes. Of course you can't forget about the rest of the amazing cast.

[@NickJohnCoop]

The greatest thing about this role is the subtlety of his acting. The little gestures, stealing the money after he leaves the table. Drawing his gun and hiding it behind his back. It’s not the lines that made this role legendary,it’s everything else.

[@Albatross0913]

@@justin-os4xp huckleberry was a real phrase back then, usually meaning "I'm the man for the job" or around those lines. Huckle bearer was too. Doc says it with his accent in a way that it sounds like either, basically toying with people saying "I'm the man who will send you to your grave." It's not misunderstood, he's literally saying both to mock people.
