Tombstone Ending Explained

There’s a line from John Ford’s highly-regarded Western The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, starring John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart, that states, “When the legend becomes fact, print the legend,” which is what the ending of Tombstone does.

Tensions come to a head in one of the most famous gunfights in Wild West history; the gunfight at the O.K. Corral.
