Thus, Wyatt starts to chase the killers together with his friend Doc Holliday. The Gunfight at the OK Corral done in 1956 by this director had as the climax the famous gunfight. Here in Hour of the Gun, Sturges starts his story with the gunfight and the results afterward. Ike Clanton played by Robert Ryan in his usual grim fashion is not about to let Wyatt Earp triumph after killing some of his gang and his kin. He sets in motion a series of events that bring tragedy on the Earp family and a sinister turn in the character of Wyatt Earp.
The usual lackadaisical and quizzical James Garner is also pretty grim in this picture. He's throwing away the law he's sworn to uphold and the set of moral rules he lives by. And it's tearing away his character which is something Doc Holiday is deeply concerned with.
James Garner ranks right up there with all the fine actors like Henry Fonda, Burt Lancaster, Randolph Scott, Kevin Costner and Kurt Russell who have played Earp. James Garner never turned a bad performance in on the screen and he even got to play Wyatt Earp again in Sunset for Blake Edwards.
Movie Trivia
The movie depicts Tombstone to have a railroad with depot. The railroad did not come to Tombstone until 1903.
Wyatt Earp's giving Warshaw a chance to draw against him is taken from the story of Earp doing that with Florentino Cruz, who also said he'd been paid $50 for his participation in the assassination of Morgan Earp, according to the Stuart N. Lake book "Wyatt Earp: Frontier Marshal." However, in the movie, Earp empties six shots into Warshaw. The real Wyatt Earp kept only five rounds in his pistol, resting the hammer on an empty chamber for safety, according to the Lake book.
