In Reply to: High Noon - a Western that leaves you ill posted by Victor Khomenko on January 5, 2004 at 14:00:40:
I have always thought this was one of the best westerns ever made. It actually is not exactly a pure western for the very reasons you describe. What this film left with me was you have to depend on yourself in the end to resolve your problems, also if you are not willing to make sacrifices to benifit yourself(townspeople) then you do not desirve the respect and help from others.Very linear concept, but sort of universal. Also as a side issue I thought this was Coopers best performance and the photography and background music was appropriate and added to the drama.
