High Noon stars Gary Cooper
as the newly married lawman Will Kane, who is about to retire
as a small-town sheriff and begin a new life with his bride (Grace
Kelly) when he learns that gunslinger Frank Miller (Ian MacDonald)
is due to arrive at high noon to settle an old score. When Kane
turns to the local townspeople for help, they turn their backs
on him. The story unfolds in approximate real time-- from 10:40
a.m. to high noon in an 84 minute film. |
