This complex rendering of the life of Wyatt Earp (Kevin Costner) explains how Earp's childhood affected his later life (His father taught him to distrust all men–except for family). For those interested in comparisons, "My Darling Clementine," "Gunfight at the O.K. Corral," and "Tombstone" provide glaring discrepancies in the Wyatt Earp persona. Also of interest in this film is the evidence of women and families on the settling of the West.
