My Darling Clementine

---I finally just got these films on netflix and were able to finish watching them, so here are my posts for the westerns!---
In My Darling Clementine (John Ford 1946) civilization wins over wilderness. Tombstone is a town of community and growing civilization. The first time Wyatt Earp (Henry Fonda) arrives in Tombstone there is loud music and people yelling and cheering, out partying at the saloons. During the time this film was set, towns were growing in order to make traveling easier. Train stations were being built and so on. There is even an entire scene for the church that is going up in the town.

After all the fight scenes, relationship "drama", and the final duel of The Clantons verse Doc and Wyatt; civilization is pushed more down the road to success. Wyatt leaves Tombstone to move forward in adventure, but the town continues to grow and expand its kind of "industrialization". The church bells continue to ring, and my guess is that many travelers pass through to add to their economy.
