Epic re-telling of the life of Wyatt Earp from law student, through petty crook to lawman and entrepreneur. The much-filmed Gunfight at the OK Corral is only a minor part of the tale and almost slips by without anyone noticing. Kevin Costner stars as the famous lawman and most feared gunslinger of his time, embittered by the death of his wife, while Dennis Quaid plays the dying Doc Holliday, his close friend who helps him at the OK Corral gunfight.
