Val Kilmer was very important to me.
When I was 7 years old I saw him in the movie Willow and he was all I ever wanted to be. The greatest Swordsman who ever lived with long hair and an untamed attitude.
Val Kilmer was one of my childhood heroes.
During my teenage years I saw him in Tombstone as Doc Holiday and once again, he was all I ever wanted to be. I still watch Tombstone to this day just for his performance. I watch every scene he is in obsessively giving it my complete attention just so to try and feel the same way I did when I watched Val Kilmer in Tombstone for the first time.
I have seen most of his movies, but I will always remember Willow and Tombstone because of how he made me feel and how much I envied him in those movies.
Rest in Peace Val Kilmer…
