Author Description

"My Darling Clementine" is one of Ford's finest treatments of the classic Western romance, telling the legendary story of Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and the gunfight at the O.K. Corral. This volume contains a full transcript of the film as released and significant material from Ford's shooting script. A 1964 interview with Ford on making Westerns and an interview with Winston Miller, the film's scriptwriter, supply background to the film. Essays by Lindsay Anderson and several film scholars establish the place of "My Darling Clementine" in Ford's career and in the tradition of the Hollywood Western.
