Gunfight is, more or less, the story of Kansas lawman Wyatt Earp (Burt Lancaster) and the infamous dentist-turned-gunslinger Doc Holliday (Kirk Douglas) who, along with Earp's brothers, Morgan (DeForest Kelley) and Virgil (John Hudson), shoot it out with members of the notorious Clanton Gang in the streets of Tombstone, Arizona in October of 1888.
The gunfight itself is generic at best, a duck-and-shoot affair that lasts five minutes as opposed to the open-air, 30-second face-off that actually occurred.
