A Tribute to High Noon

Courage, responsibility and community - these are the primary concepts that are explored in this classic Western starring Gary Cooper and Grace Kelly. Who is brave enough to face the evil that has come to town? Is there anybody else in town who is willing to stand along side our hero and face the evil with him? Believed to be a thinly veiled allegory for the anti-communist MacCarthy Hearings that plagued the Hollywood creative community in the early fifties, this movie is also a classic example of the more psychologically sophisticated Westerns that were popular in the fifties and sixties. It was only one of 108 Westerns that were released in 1952 and it became what most movie connoisseurs consider one of the best Westerns of all time, we'll show you why in our Tribute to High Noon.
