_High Noon_ was controversial at the time of its release due to the overt political themes. John Wayne was first offered the role of Will Kane but turned it down. Because the townspeople turn their backs on Kane, refusing to help defend their town, Wayne called it the most un-American script he'd ever read. Will Kane was played by Gary Cooper, one of Hollywood's greatest male stars. This was, as you can imagine, late in his career, but his performance earned him his second Best Actor Oscar. Amy Kane was played by Grace Kelly, one of the most beautiful women to ever appear in American films. Kelly was a favorite of Alfred Hitchcock, who cast her in three films: _Dial M for Murder, Rear Window_ (with James Stewart), and _To Catch a Thief_ (with Cary Grant). While filming _To Catch a Thief_ on the French Riviera she met Prince Rainier of Monaco, who fell in love with her. One year later, 1956, they married. She retired from acting and became even more famous as Princess Grace. Katy Jurado who played Helen Ramirez won the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress, a rarity for a Mexican actor at the time. This was her first American film, and she learned English specifically for the role. Harvey was played by Lloyd Bridges, who would go on to have a long film and television career. You've seen him in _Airplane!_ He was the one who kept saying, "I guess I picked the wrong day to quit smoking... drinking... taking amphetamines... sniffing glue." He has two sons who are also actors, Beau Bridges and Jeff Bridges. Jeff Bridges played The Dude in _The Big Lebowski._ This was Lee Van Cleef's first movie.

Quakers, or Religious Society of Friends, are a set of Christian denominations that began during the English Civil War. They have a number of distinctive beliefs, the most important of which for this movie is their adherence to non-violence and pacifism. They had a rough time of it in England, with official State persecution in the Quaker Act of 1662 and others, so large numbers of them fled to North America. They had a rough time of it in the Colonies, too, being imprisoned, banished and executed by the Puritans in the Massachusetts Bay Colony before settling in several of the northern colonies, especially Pennsylvania, which was founded by William Penn, a Quaker.

It's "Carl" Foreman, but yes. It's an allegory about how the bullies came and too many in Hollywood sold out their friends rather than take a stand. Notably Ronald Reagan, who was the President of the Screen Actors Guild, but "named names" and let McCarthy smear others, ruining careers and even lives. Walt Disney, who arguably started the whole problem by blaming "Communists" for an animators' strike in 1941, also testified about "the Communist menace", feeding McCarthy's publicity-hungry campaign to blacklist performers. (In fact, the animators were simply on strike because Disney was a cheapskate and a jerk.)

The cinematography was done by Floyd Crosby, already an Oscar winner for another film 2 decades before. He was nominated for this one...Floyd was the father of the recent late David Crosby of the singing group Crosby Stills Nash and Young. Floyd captured Cooper's eyes and facial expressions beautifully for full effect of the story as well movement of the wife's wagon out of town from both perspectives, the moment where Cooper, standing in the middle of the street, realizes this is it, he's alone. Floyd pans the cameras away and up, adding to the intensity and helplessness...and the constant looking at the clock, speeded up just before the noon train arrives. Great editing. The musical score for the film, by Dimitri Tiomkin, was brilliant.

It stars Grace Kelly and Ray Milland. It's a murder suspense movie set in London.

The one told to "grow up" is Lloyd Bridges (father of Jeff Bridges of "The Big Lebowski").

John Wayne’s Rio, bravo should be your next western. Rio, bravo is the antithesis to this movie. And I think you’ll really like the movie and all the characters in it .

The lead actor in this movie was Gary Cooper, a huge Hollywood star back in the day. Another movie with Cooper you might like is Sergeant York. A true story about the most decorated American soldier of WWI. Well written and well acted.

The female lead was Grace Kelly who left Hollywood to marry Prince Rainier of Monaco and become Her Royal highness Princess Grace of Monaco. Gary Cooper won his second Oscar for this movie. He was one of the great Hollywood Stars of the Golden era.

Okay, Dawn. Bruce Willis references this movie in DIE HARD. Gary Cooper and Grace Kelly. Sean Connery does a High Noon in space. OUTLAND. Gary Cooper with the Mike drop ending, outstanding. Like John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart, Gary Cooper is almost always just himself. Didn't matter if it was action, suspense, biopic, or dramedy. I love most of them. Good job babe.

One of the finest westerns ever made, a very very fine movie in its own right. Will Kane's wife...Amy (Grace Kelly) actually married the prince of the Principality of Monaco, becoming Princess Grace, of Monaco (yes she did!). Katy Jurado delivered one of the best lines (in movie history, in my opinion), when she told deputy marshall Pell: “I don't like anybody to put his hands on me unless I want him to, and I don't like you to, anymore", she said it with soo much conviction. Anyway thank you Dawn Marie for watching and reacting to this movie. Another great western movie to watch and to react to is: "The Searchers", the greatest western movie in my very humble opinion. Give it a view please!

Great reaction. You should do Winchester 73 with Jimmy Stewart and The Oxbow Incident with Henry Fonda. I think you would enjoy both

For a comedy spaghetti western, there are the "my name is nobody" movies. Later parodied in "the ballad of buster scruggs".

A few years after this movie Grace Kelly married Prince Rainier of Monaco and became a real princess. Gary Cooper was in "Pride of the Yankees", "Sergeant York", "Mr. Deeds Goes to Town" and a lot of great movies. Singing cowboy Tex Ritter sang the theme song. His son John Ritter was in Three's Company in the 1970's.

Gary Cooper is a Hollywood legend, and one of the greatest actors that ever lived. He made so many great movies it's hard to really pick his greatest role ever but this may be it.
