The Finest Compliment

Actor Michael Biehn played outlaw Johnny Ringo in the iconic film “Tombstone.” A reporter asked Biehn whether it was difficult to work with the late Val Kilmer, who was cast as Doc Holliday.

Biehn replied, “I don’t know. I never met Val Kilmer. The whole time we were filming, I only met Doc Holliday.”

Kilmer was a consummate professional. He didn’t just play Doc Holliday. He WAS Doc Holliday. We should all aspire to do our jobs that well, so that our colleagues have such respect for us.
