Val Kilmer's performance as Doc Holliday in Tombstone was filled with classic moments, but these 10 are the absolute best. Val Kilmer's portrayal of Doc Holliday has gone down as one of the best performances in Tombstone, and one of the best performances in any Western, for good reason. Many of Doc Holliday's scenes are also among the best scenes in Tombstone, and he basically commanded every sequence he was in.
13 Part of the reason Doc Holliday's taunts during the Gunfight at the OK Corral were such a great moment is because it perfectly encapsulated a big part of his character. Even after mowing down Cowboys and being faced with an extremely dangerous situation where his gun was unloaded, Doc was still making jokes. He took almost nothing seriously, and it was mainly because he was so much better than everyone he fought that he didn't need to.
8 Doc Holliday Calls Wyatt Earp His Friend It's Not Val Kilmer's Most Memorable Quote, But His Delivery Was Utterly Perfect ✕ Remove Ads Many of Doc Holliday's best quotes in Tombstone make their respective scenes classic, but Val Kilmer was even capable of delivering ordinary dialog perfectly. After Wyatt started hunting down the Cowboys, Turkey Creek Jack Johnson asked Doc why he was riding with them instead of recovering from his tuberculosis.
6 Doc Holliday Meeting Wyatt Earp In Tombstone Doc's Dismissal Of Johnny Tyler Is So Perfectly Condescending & Biting The first time Doc Holliday actually interacted with Wyatt Earp in Tombstone is also one of his best moments. The scene instantly established Doc and Wyatt's friendship, which is a cornerstone of Tombstone, but it also gave the gunslinger one of his best put-downs in the whole film.
Everything that makes Doc Holliday an endearing character was on full display during his argument with Johnny Ringo. 12 Doc's death scene in Tombstone also proves why the Western has become a classic since it was first released. For all the gunfights and tough guy moments in Tombstone, the movie also has a tremendous amount of heart. The ending of Tombstone is as much about Wyatt saying goodbye to an old friend and listening to his advice to move on as it is about getting revenge for his brothers.
