MAUREEN O’HARA: PART 1
BY KEVIN LEWIS

In one swashbuckling film, O’Hara, disguised as a boy, fought her way to the battlements, jumped down 15 feet to the ground and continued dueling without losing a beat. The stunt team stood by stunned.

MAUREEN O’HARA: PART 1
BY KEVIN LEWIS

A marvelous mixture of softness and high spirits, O’hara played the true blue wife or the madcap village lass with equal dexterity and appeal. She was also at home with period pieces which nicely set off her sensational figure.

WYATT EARP: PART 2
BY NICHOLAS ANEZ

Was he a noble hero or a tragically flawed hero? A dejected and weary gunfighter or a cold-blooded executioner? Most likely the truth about Earp will never be known, but Hollywood will continue to provide its versions. (To read Part 1)

WYATT EARP: PART 1
BY NICHOLAS ANEZ

Earp never killed a man until the gunfight at the O.K. Corral, without doubt the most disputed event of his life-shrouded as it is in confusion, contradictory testimony, prejudicial accounts and outright lies.
