As I was doing busy work related to my writing business on my iBook tonight, I watched the movie, Tombstone again. All my life, I’ve loved good cowboy movies. Every time I visit my parents in Kemp, Oklahoma, I’m reminded of that, for they only watch three types of tv: wrestling, soap operas, and westerns. (The Western Channel is on constantly). There’s something about this movie that keeps drawing me back to it. Tonight, I noticed some particular lines. I found the movie’s script here: http://www.imsdb.com/scripts/Tombstone.html
Here are the lines that got my attention tonight. It’s the scene where Wyatt and Josephine “accidentally” run into each other:
JOSEPHINE
Oh look, I haven’t got time to be
Proper, I want to live. I’m a
woman, I like men. If that’s
Unladylike then I guess I’m not a
Lady. At least I’m honest.
WYATT
Well you’re different, no arguing
That. But you’re a lady all right.
I’ll take my oath on it.
He looks at her, enchanted, but suddenly his face clouds.
JOSEPHINE
What’s wrong?
WYATT
I don’t know, doesn’t make any
Sense. I almost can’t look at
You. Like it hurts.
JOSEPHINE
I know, me too. What should we do
About it?
And if you’ve seen the movie, you know the happy ending and what they did about it.
