Purely fictional movie. Yes the movie is for entertainment purposes and I enjoyed the movie but when John Ford stated he spoke to Wyatt Earp in person to get the truth leads me to wonder if Ford is being honest. Why? The brother age format is all wrong, clementine is never mentioned with Doc Holiday or Wyatt in history documents, At the OK Coral shooting it doesn't show Virgil being present. Virgil never died until old age, neither did James. Doc Holiday didn't die at the shooting. James was the eldest then Virgil, then Wyatt then Morgan. No documentation of Ike Clayton being at the ok corral fight or having 4 sons. History says 2 McCollary brothers, Billy Clinton and Billy Clayborne we're on one side. Wyatt, Virgil, Morgan Earp and Doc on the other side. So Fords interview with Fonda claiming he spoke to Wyatt and got the truth about the Ok coral shooting is a lie. The only female acquaintance of Doc Holiday mention in historical records was Big nose Kate. So many inaccuracies in one movie leads me to believe Ford lied for financial gain. Very unfortunate because Ford directed a lot of good movies, especially with John Wayne head actor.
