First Western: My darling Clementine

One important scene that stands out to me is the Shakespear scene where the man who is saying the "To be or not to be" poem cannot finish, and Doc Holliday takes over. This scene does alot for the movie. It takes us away from the usuall dancing, shooting and fighting of an old western bar scene, which to me was refreshing.It shows another side of Doc Holliday when he takes over performing the poem. We also find out that Doc has is either very sick or has a disease, when the coughs extremly hard and has to leave the bar. Much of this scene is show from a low angle with low key lighting, especially when focused on Doc and the performer. This seems to slow down the movie to emphasize this scene. Through this scene we see a good side of Doc Holliday for the first time, as he defends the man who is telling the poem. It takes us away from the usuall western bar scene for a while, but also jumps right back into it as Wyatt Earp again shows off his quick release of his pistil and his strong qualities of a marshall.
