    • Trivia
      Walter Brennan disliked John Ford so much that he never worked with him again. One time when Brennan was having a little trouble getting into the saddle, Ford yelled, "Can't you even mount a horse?" Brennan shot back, "No, but I got three Oscars for acting!"
    • Goofs
      The movie shows James Earp killed (murdered) with his marker showing "born 1864 died 1882". However, James Earp was actually born in 1841 and died in 1926 of natural causes. It was Morgan Earp who was murdered on 18 March 1882.
    • Quotes

      Wyatt Earp: Mac, you ever been in love?

      Mac: No, I've been a bartender all me life.

    • Alternate versions
      In 1994, an alternate "preview" version of the film was found that runs 103 or 104 minutes, according to different sources. In June 1946, director John Ford showed producer Darryl F. Zanuck his cut of the film. Zanuck's opinion was that the film had some problems, so Zanuck reshot certain scenes with Director Lloyd Bacon. Zanuck also recut other scenes, changed the music at certain points, and slightly altered the finale. In all, 35 minutes of footage was shot or recut, and the film was released at 97 minutes. Both the 103-104 min. archival preview print and the 97 min. release print are on the Fox DVD released January 6, 2004.

    If it's going to be fiction, then skip the historical backdrop
    Anyone who has the slightest casual knowledge of the events leading up to and surrounding the showdown is going to be disappointed. I mean, this film can't even disclaim 'based on a true story', it's so far off. All that would have been necessary to make this into a film not so darned distracting was to have it exactly as presented, but not with the names Earp, Holliday and Clanton.
