Details

• Release Year: 1952
• Genre: Action, Drama, Suspense/Thriller, Western
• Plot: The myth and poetry of the old west come alive in Fred Zinnemann's (Julia) classic western, High Noon (1952). One of the great treasures of the American cinema, the film stars the legendary Gary Cooper as lawman Will Kane, a marshal who stands alone to defend a town of cowardly citizens against a gang of killers out for revenge. Engaged in the fight of his lifetime, Kane stands to lose everything when the clock strikes noon - his friends, his honor, and his Quaker bride, played by Grace Kelly in one of her first screen roles. Unfolding in real time, the tension builds as we race ever closer to the climactic duel from which the film takes it name. For his career-defining role, Cooper would go on to win the Oscar for Best Actor. High Noon's stellar cast also includes Lloyd Bridges (Try and Get Me), Thomas Mitchell (It's a Wonderful Life), Katy Jurado (Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid), Otto Kruger (Saboteur), Lon Chaney (The Wolf Man), Harry Morgan (Strategic Air Command), Jack Elam (Hannie Caulder), and Lee Van Cleef (The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly). High Noon won a total four Academy Awards including Best Editing, Best Score (Dimitri Tiomkin, The Old Man and the Sea), and Best Song, 'Do Not Forsake Me, Oh My Darlin',' written by Tiomkin and Ned Washington and sung by Tex Ritter. High Noon also received Oscar nominations for Best Picture (Stanley Kramer, Producer), Best Director (Fred Zinneman) and Best Screenplay (Carl Foreman).
