what does "I'm your huckleberry" mean? It became a debated question among Val Kilmer's fans and critics of the film. They have different interpretations of this idiom. It is also unclear where the idea came from. Some credit it to Mark Twain for Huckleberry Finn. Here is an attempt to find the ultimate meaning of the famous American quote.
Huckleberry was quite a fashionable word in the nineteenth century. People use it to express sweet and gentle affection. Gambling circles also draw on the huckleberry to describe something small. The huckleberry meaning in Doc's statement spells trouble for Johnny Ringo. It would be funny to think of Mark Twain's idea in the Tombstone film.
The huckleberry is a small, round wild berry that grows mainly in the southeast of the United States. It resembles the blueberry in color and shape. Because of its size, people use the word figuratively to describe something that is of little importance.
Nobody really knows what Doc Holliday spoke that time but Doc himself. All printed work made about the Southern lawman were mere fictional adaptations of his life story
I recently watched Tombstone for the first time. Such a fantastic film!
Sadly, none of my friends are good-looking mustachio'd men.
I'll be ur fren. 😀
Have you got a manly mustache?
Goatee if it counts lol
It's the frenship that counts. Facial hair could be a bonus :)
Also I do a killer Doc Holliday impression fwiw
Sense of humor is a plus.
That I have.
Don't feel bad.. Neither are mine... 😜
He actually says "I'll be your huckle bearer"
A huckle is a part which you wrap your hand around on a casket to carry.
He basically was telling him that he was going to be the person to cause his body to have to be carried in a casket.
