"...Unless some last minute happening changes the plans again, #VictorMature will play opposite #JudyGarland in #AStarIsBorn..." wrote columnist,-#LouellaParsons - August 1953 - (...but there were several "last minute happenings"....when the film was finally released, in 1954, it co-starred #JamesMason!;-)

...Mason and Garland would both be nominated for Oscars...and, ultimately, win Golden Globes for their well-matched and stellar performances! "The (Role) That Got Away"? ...perhaps...😉

My Darling Clementine (1946)

What makes My Darling Clementine special is that it isn’t like other westerns. This film does not focus on shootouts (though it does contain a rather spectacular one towards the end). Its attention is directed towards the characters' humanity. I like to think of it as the sequel to every generic western story. It expands and then surpasses them.

After the murder of his youngest brother, Wyatt Earp (Henry Fonda) settles down to bring law to a lawless town. Just as he begins to enjoy a nice quiet life thanks to the beautiful Clementine (Cathy Downs), the spirit of the west and personal vendettas catch up to him. By the end of it, we’ll see Wyatt Earp and Doc Holiday (Victor Mature) gear up for the legendary shootout at the O.K. Corral.

This movie begins and ends like a traditional western, but the middle almost fools you into thinking it’s something else. After his brother's murder, Wyatt Earp decides to take up the vacant sheriff job in the town of Tombstone. He doesn’t want to. He’s been there before, taking down the bad guys, throwing the troublemaking drunks in jail, facing death at every turn. He’s sick of it but that's his calling. To his surprise, life in Tombstone agrees with him. There’s a glimmer of hope as his rough exterior gradually melts away. You forget that the movie isn’t about this charming romance. You believe it when these people say that they’ve had enough of this lawlessness associated with the Wild West. You desperately want it to have a happy ending… but it’s like Earp has been cursed. He can’t escape the Wild West because he embodies everything about it. In a way, the film is a tragedy. These people want to put lawlessness behind them but the Wild West is determined to have the last laugh.

The way Doc Holiday, Wyatt Earp, Clementine, Doc Holiday’s squeeze Chihuahua (Linda Darnell) are brought to life is incredible. In so many scenes it’s not what people say, it’s how they say it, how they give each other a look or even stand next to each other in the bar that tells you what they stand for. These are living, breathing people, they’re not a collection of lines read by actors. Though it predates it by 30+ years, My Darling Clementine has the same level of emotional investment as Titanic. It’s a true story, so you know where it’s going. What you’re not prepared for is that moment when you realize you've forgotten about the real-life facts you knew coming in. These people are no longer statistics and names in a history book. They’re real.

My Darling Clementine is one of the best Westerns out there, a film that gets better the more familiar you are with the genre. The beautiful black-and-white cinematography, the character development, the way the actors are framed, the little moments they’re all given to foreshadow what comes next, the charisma and chemistry on display, it all builds up towards a shootout that’s like a crack of lightning. My Darling Clementine is an instant favourite. (On DVD, April 15, 2016)
