Tombstone - Doc's Latin Conversation with Ringo

One of my favorite movie scenes of all time

the translations: - the first part is the direct translation while the part in parentheses is what is implied-
Doc: In wine there is truth (I am honest when I am drunk)

Ringo: Do what you do best. (Being drunk is what your best at)

Doc: Apella the Jew might've believed it, not I (Only a fool would believe that)

Ringo: Experience is the best teacher for fools ( I know it from what Ive seen -----I believe when he pats the gun he's implying his gun, and therefore him, is deadlier, since from what he knows from experience is that he is better----

Doc: It is your funeral (you believe it if you want but in the end I'll win)

Glad u put up the translation, just watched this movie again last night and was wondering what they were saying.

@kcrazy58 yea this scene is badass enough as it is but you can appreciate it more when you understand the jabs theyre taking at each other

I had to add this to my favorites! I just started high school and chose Latin as my language, and it's my favorite class, which says a lot. I've been dying to see this movie as well. Aliquam!

"in wine is truth" ( When im drinking i speak my mind)

"Do what u do" (Do what u do best)

"The Jew Apella may believe it, not i" (i dont believe drinking is what i do best)

"Events are the teachers of fools" (fools must learn from expierence)

"rest in peace" (its your funeral)

that seems to be as clear as it can be made
