‘Tombstone’: Val Kilmer’s Best Doc Holliday Quote Is Not Historically Accurate

Actor Val Kilmer‘s passing is a tragic loss to the world of cinema. In a career of iconic performances that range from Jim Morrison to Batman, no other portrayal is more synonymous with Val Kilmer’s legacy than that of Doc Holiday in Tombstone. The mystique of the Old West, with its gunfighters, lawmen, and cowboys, has long been a staple of pop culture, but few films are as effective as Tombstone. The classic film depicts the exploits of Wyatt Earp (Kurt Russell) and Doc Holliday (Val Kilmer) and their legendary gunfight at the O.K. Corral. Val Kilmer’s portrayal of the famous gunslinger gave us many quotable lines, but a certain fan favorite was altered slightly to reflect modern language.
