High Noon - Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling

High Noon - Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling.
Will Kane (Gary Cooper), the longtime marshal of Hadleyville, New Mexico Territory, has just married pacifist Quaker Amy Fowler (Grace Kelly) and turned in his badge. He intends to become a storekeeper elsewhere. Suddenly, the town learns that Frank Miller (Ian MacDonald), a criminal whom Kane brought to justice, is due to arrive on the noon train...
You know it's gonna be a bad day when you start it by writing your will ...

[@clintprovance8047]

High noon has many qualities to it it is as great a picture as gone with the wind or Casablanca after all these years it is probably being realized this film had quite a bit of clout to it Casablanca made bogey what he is gone with the wind made a great star out of Vivian Lee but high noon is an All-Star movie filled with character actors and television actors from that period Cooper deservedly won the best Oscar award this did not happen for Bogart or Gable in two best known roles nominating a western for anything rarely happens John Wayne in true grit Oscar high noon has to go up on the charts as one of the greatest films ever made the awards that it was given were deserved only the New York's film critics award for Best picture tells you which award it wasn't given because of the really rotten politics of the 1950s that have finally come back to try to take us all over again hopefully everyone will stand up like Cooper did in this film we can only hope like I said one of the greatest movies one of the 10 greatest films of all time!!!

It’s interesting that my three favorite westerns-High Noon, The Searchers, and The Big Country-all end with just this kind of moment. The hero stands alone, somewhat confused, but still determined. In The Big Country, three of the major character-Jean Simmons, Greg Peck, and Charlton Heston-all face it in succession. Also, all three were made in the mid-50s, within a span of 6 years.

This scene is a true masterpiece. In few seconds the Director was able to describe the loliness of a man who knows what is right to do even if it will cost his life. Aside from this the miserable selfishness of common men who sit and watch. Afraid of being involved. But ready to clap the winner.. whoever it will be. that's why this scene is immortal. Cause Men are always the same.

0ne of the best Western and ranks among the all time great movies. Based on a short story, 'The Tin Star, it created a havoc with Gary Cooper playing a winning performance, lifting the Oscar, and a new-comer, Grace Kelly, whose introduction marked the arrival of a fresh Hollywood actress. It proved that a short story can play its part if the theme falls into the hands of a creative producer, who can sign a wise screenplay writer and a brilliant director. Besides, the choice of a music composer who can score a winning song for the movie. Every one who participated in making of this movie is a Oscar winner, no two-ways about it. Recall, how Satyajit Ray dealt with Satranj Ke Khiladi! Amen.

This film alongside "Shane" has been described as the greatest American western film; there are strange parallels connecting both movies;... ...Gary Cooper & Alan Ladd were long term contract players at Paramount pictures. Both were known for their physical height; ['Gangly' in Coops case, 'lack of' in Alan Ladd's case]. Both actors had British parents. The films were shot in the same year, 1951 [although Shane was released in 1953]. Both actors were known to be shy & modest & both died relatively [by modern standards] young 50 & 60...

John Wayne hated the story of a "crying" sheriff, that was running around the town asking for help. As an answer he and director Howard Hawks filmed Rio Bravo in 1958 and the same movie two more times (El Dorado and Rio Lobo). Will Kane didn't fit in Wayne's view to the world. He called High Noon "unamerican". That's true. And don't forget: in the 50s they were hunting the so called communists with their black list. Wayne was very busy there... I was always a big Western fan and of course a fan of John Wayne. But saying that, I only mean his work in his films. He was not the guy from the neighbourhood to have a beer with...

Dimitri Tiomkin saved this movie. The producers showed the film to a test audience. Their reaction was so negative, that the producers actually shelved the film, not intending to release it. Tiomkin hearing about this decision, approached the producers with an offer to buy the rights to the soundtrack and song. They agreed, once the documents were signed, Tiomkin's record company agreed to release High Noon as a single. Impressed by the success of the song, the producers then released it hoping for the best.
