Wyatt Earp is one of the most famous figures of the American West, and he's been depicted in movies many times over, most famously in the 1993 western Tombstone (and its imitators). While the cinematic portrayals obviously take dramatic license with the details of his life, Earp was truly a larger-than-life figure who did all kinds of things that sound like the creation of screenwriters.
