Guns are drawn at the OK Corral and a legend of the west is born in My Darling Clementine, John Ford’s classic dramatization of the life and times of Wyatt Earp. We’ll hear three of the film’s stars - Henry Fonda, who played Earp; Victor Mature, who co-starred as gambler and gunslinger Doc Holliday; and Linda Darnell, the old flame of Holliday’s who gets in the middle of a feud that will turn bloody on the streets of Tombstone - in episodes of Suspense, plus a radio recreation of the film. Fonda stars in “Summer Storm” (originally aired on CBS on October 18, 1945); Mature headlines “Momentum” (originally aired on CBS on October 27, 1949); and Ms. Darnell is heard in “A Killing in Las Vegas” (originally aired on CBS on February 25, 1952). Then, Fonda and his screen co-star Cathy Downs recreate their roles on The Lux Radio Theatre (originally aired on CBS on April 28, 1947).
