50 something town marshal looking for much younger woman to be a wife and full time carer
Do not forsake me oh my darling..... The iconic song from Tex Ritter, the singing cowboy. It tells the story of the film but not why a young (Grace Kelly was 25) woman, Amy Kane wants to marry a man old enough to be her father. Cooper was just the wrong side of fifty when he made the film and he looked older and still not recovered from a hernia operation and then injured his back during rehearsals. The average age of men in the west in the 1870s was 45 so the character Will Kane was already on borrowed time. It is not the fact he has to take on four gunman that occupied my thoughts so much as would he survive the wedding ceremony? It is a male, middle aged executive dominated Hollywood film in that sense, so many old film stars have really young co-stars. That little flaw aside it is a really good film. Good story, good script, good supporting actors and a moral question asked, reflecting the ethics and hypocrisy of the McCarthy witch hunt of Hollywood liberals and 'commies' as the film was being made. Oh and a bit of shooting as in a proper western.

A Moral Western And Iconic Classic
At less than 1 hour and 25 minutes High Noon remains a masterclass in economy of storytelling and cinematic suspense.Eureka Masters Of Cinema label provides generous extras - the best of which are the audio commentary tracks from Glenn Frankel and Stephen Prince who discuss the Hollywood Blacklist politics and the creative personal behind this enduring classic.

Just a great film with a splendid cast.
When it comes to western films, 'High Noon' is one of the classics. You feel for Gary Cooper as he faces the baddies with no one lifting a finger to help him. To stubborn to just quit his job as the towns sheriff & head for the hills with his new wife played by the lovely Grace Kelly. The tension builds up as the clock reaches high noon & the train pulls in to the station with the last of the badmen aboard, meeting his fellow outlaws.A good Western all round, which is great to watch on blu ray in high definition. The blu ray also comes with a very informative booklet & some lovely photos from the film. A must for any Western fan!

Great western, stands the test of time.
Looks great. Gary Cooper was not the first choice for the starring role but was perfect and one cannot imagine the film without him. Includes many extra features.

Region B Europe!!! Unplayable on North America without region free player!
The movie is great and I was looking forward to seeing it again but it's region B Europe! No indication on the Amazon entry. I searched multiple releases of this movie to find one thar wasn't Region B and this one didn't specify. Can't play it without a region free player which I don't own. The product is excellent, shipping was great, just be aware of the region lock!
