Tombstone

[Fata Morgana]

His shining moment for sure. Although he was a pretty good Jim Morrison I thought.

Wow... I knew his face, but I didn't realize that was his name. He played Billy Clayborn?

Powers Boothe is in it (President Noah Daniels in 24, Cy Tolliver in Deadwood) — he has a very distinctive voice. Dana Delany (China Beach)... am I missing anyone?

Powers Boothe' best role was playing Jim Jones.....but he's always good

 

[Beco]

Brilliant film this. Dana Delaney always reminds me of Tath, he had a massive crush on her.

She's hot and a good actress....

The beginning is a bit brutal, but stuff happens...

Yeah . . . .

Byron will be toasted, the next time Tombstone plays on my TV.

"Why you even doin' this, Doc?"

"Because Wyatt Earp's my friend."

"Hell... I got lotsa friends..."

"I don't."

So poignant, reading this.

I had forgotten his use of Doc as his avatar. How exquisitely appropriate to have him memorialized forever as Doc.

We all are. Even those that don't have the privilege of knowing what is missing around here.

I can't picture another Byron wandering in to this field:

Welcome to our newest member, Another Byron.

Makes me wistful think of some of the (few) statesmen here and longevity in general.

with threads like these remaining, his memory lives
