What was up with Clementine and Chihuahua? Are they based on the various ladies we talked about in class? It’s no wonder Chihuahua died though, with a dentist (at least that’s what Doc Holliday really was) doing surgery on her. And the ages of the brothers were all messed up. The movie made Wyatt seem like the oldest, but James was actually the oldest. And where was Warren Earp, the youngest brother? Also, James wasn’t killed. In fact, Morgan was the only brother who got killed. It’s kind of terrible actually, because the inside slip that comes with my DVD says that the real life feuding was “initially set in motion by the slaying of James Earp, Wyatt’s younger brother.” Yeah… okay. --Taylor Brann

One major issue I had with the character of Clementine is that she didn't look at all like she had just traveled from Boston to Arizona.  She was completely put together and clean-cut and was also beyond thrilled to have arrived.  I feel that for a young woman to make that trip on her own would have been completely unrealistic.  With the amount of baggage she had with her (which, yes most women do tend to bring when packing for trips) that trip solo would have been nearly impossible.  Especially to keep up her physical appearance. -Kelly Wuyscik
