Doc Holliday
Doc Holliday in Tombstone is the guy who shows up with a face like "I'm bored of the world" but still decides to be the most elegant one in the place. A gunslinger and gambler with the manners of a southern gentleman, always speaking with that irony that makes you wonder if he is insulting or flattering you. In the film he is skinny, pale, with tuberculosis, and yet he spends his time smoking and drinking whiskey as if there were a contest to die first. Don't call it a good example of health. His personality is a rare combo: polite, cultured, sarcastic, and seriously loyal to Wyatt Earp. He loves that attitude of "I'm going to laugh while they shoot me", probably because death was already breathing down his neck and it all seemed like a joke to him. He is not the protagonist, but every scene that appears steals the attention, because the rest of the cast looks like healthy people trying to live. In short: elegant gunslinger, acid humor, sick, intelligent, charming.
