OK Corral, Tombstone – Present Day

There have been several movies made about the most famous gun battle of the Old West.

• Gunfight at the OK Corral (1957) Burt Lancaster and Kirk Douglas
• Tombstone (1993) Kurt Russell
• Wyatt Earp (1994) Kevin Costner

For a fairly accurate reenactment, I prefer Tombstone with Kurt Russell as Wyatt Earp, Sam Elliott as his older brother, Virgil, and Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday. The movie is way better than the reenactment at the actual OK Corral, which by the way is not where the gunfight took place.

However, if you want the life story of Wyatt Earp, you have to rent Wyatt Earp with Kevin Costner. This is the better reenactment of the Earp Vendetta Ride.
