The Marshal was always looking after and explaining things and pleading to 'Dulcy' the young woman who was not his love interest but more like a ward. Stuart Whitman was the marshal.

Most people don't realize that it was based on the lives of 2 ranchers Loving and Goodnight that had ranches in west Texas and made the first drive on the Loving-Goodnight trail to Montana. Even the character of Deets is based on the life of the black cowboy, Bose Isom whom Loving buried in Weatherford, TX. Lots of facts entertwined through the story.

Tombstone and Wyatt Earp were both good but I think I preferred Tombstone

Tombostone hands down in my favorite.
It dominated Wyatt Earp. Kevin Costner just didn't fit the Wyatt Earp role...
I bought the Tombstone collectors edition with all of the extras, it was great.
