It is the one that kept my attention. And it had it all; it had
great acting, great direction, well paced, and great script..

1952 - High Noon. Gary Cooper, Grace Kelly ..directed by Fred Zinnemann
1 hour 25 minutes.

If you have not seen this, then you are in for a wonderful movie going experience

Gary Cooper got the Academy Award for best actor
and 4 other awards. Nominated but did not win, best picture, best director, best written film.

It is a wonderful movie that defines what a Western is. One of the greatest movie dramas ever made, You get hypnotized by this film, and then it is over. That is it moves so fast, so smooth, that you are in from beginning to end. And once the plot is laid out, you want to know, the story, the players, and how the problem is solved. No, I won't tell you more. Some say it is the greatest western ever made.

See on a big screen at some revival theater, if you can. No small screen does this film justice..oh and that is part of the film too. Cooper plays a town marshal,.and....ops.... that's all folks...........
