High Noon

Gary Cooper won the Academy Award for the Best Actor in this classic tale of a lawman who stands alone to defend a town of cowardly citizens against a gang of revenge-seeking criminals.

In the greatest showdown in the history of cinema, Cooper stands to lose not only the town but his new wife, Grace Kelly. The film also stars one of Hollywood's most beloved and prolific actors, Lloyd Bridges, and marks the first starring role for a beautiful young actress and internationally adored screen legend Grace Kelly.

HIGH NOON garnered a total of four Academy Awards including Best Film Editing, Score and Original Song.

"Meaningful in its implications, as well as loaded with interest and suspense, HIGH NOON is a western to challenge Stagecoach for the all-time championship." - Bosley Crowther, The New York Times
