It’s a motion picture set in Arizona in the late 1800s. A fine period piece if I may say so.

Excellent movie with a great cast. One of my favorite more modern westerns and one of the best about the trouble between the Earp's and the Cowboys.
Val Kilmer kills it in just about every scene he's in.

Documentary about a frozen pizza empire that rose to prominence in the 80s following a series of great commercials.

Sounds like a Vampire Movie. Is Christopher Lee in it?

Their best topping is surprisingly huckleberries.

May have been what was supposed to be said but "I'm your huckleberry" is what he said.
quote:
Some folks think that Holliday may have said something else in real life. He might’ve said, “I’m your huckle bearer.” In the South, a huckle was a casket handle. A huckle bearer would be the person carrying a coffin, essentially a pallbearer.
According to this theory, what Holliday should have said in the film is, “I’m your huckle bearer.” The theory goes that Val Kilmer accidentally said huckleberry instead, and the line stuck. There are a couple of problems with that explanation. First, no official copy of the script has ever been seen with the words “huckle bearer” used. Second, Val Kilmer maintains that the line written in the script was huckleberry, and Kilmer even titled his autobiography I’m Your Huckleberry.
Another Southern slang usage of huckleberry was “the right person for the job.” In both instances of Holliday using the phrase in the film, Johnny Ringo is hoping to spark violence. What Holliday is saying to Johnny Ringo is that if he’s looking for trouble, Holliday’s the guy to give it to him.
If you watch the rest of the film, you know that Holliday is telling the truth. Doc Holliday is nothing but trouble for Johnny Ringo. Don’t feel too sorry for Johnny, though—he had it coming.
