Movie Review : A Film Review On High Noon

First impressions are not always right. This is what this essay is about, and my opinion is that you should not judge even though it's hard not to. I've stereotyped and judged a person by their looks, but I was wrong and it made me feel bad. He was a good guy and he became one of my best friends. This is a 12 Angry Men essay about all the stereotyping and judging someone by their looks that is on trial in the

High Noon was the story of a very brave man, Will Kane played by Gary Cooper, which is giving up his Sheriff position to become a homemaker with him wife. Just when they are leaving to start their new life together, there is news that four outlaws are coming back into town to seek revenge on

I learned so much about Wyatt Earp’s life, but it was also very entertaining. Some of my favorite things about this movie were the acting, the battle scenes, and the scenes where Doc and Wyatt were gambling. The acting in this movie, I feel, was really good. It seemed like the actors, were truly the characters, and not just people pretending to be them. Val Kilmer did an excellent job playing Doc Holliday, he did not break character and was very serious, just like Doc was. I felt like I lived in Tombstone, and knew the characters by the end of the movie. The showdown behind the O.K. Corral also seemed very realistic. The shooting all looked real, and it looked like the showdown was actually happening. I also really enjoyed the gambling scenes. They were very fun to watch, and full of exciting surprises. The movie was gory, and there was blood and violence. I believe there was a perfect balance of violence though, because the true story did have a lot of fighting, but it was not too gory. As well as learning specific facts, I learned a few valuable lessons from watching this movie. One lesson I took out of the film is to never give up. Wyatt Earp wanted to stop the cowboys, and did not want them to hurt the town of Tombstone any more. He knew that the cowboys were tough, and very dangerous, but he was very determined to stop them. He fought many tough battles, and refused to give up. Wyatt Earp, his

Have you ever read a story but liked the movie about it better? Well that was the case for me when I read "Harrison Bergeron." In the story many scenes were unclear and confused me but the movie made it more understandable. There was also many differences between the story and movie which got confusing. But the changes from the story made the movie more clear and exciting. Although the story was good I liked the movie better because it was more clear.

In the Heat of the Night made it’s debut appearance in 1967 and received and Oscar for Best Picture. The rustic and quiet town of Sparta, Mississippi is the setting for the movie. The story starts off with a cop making his nightly rounds when he discovers a murdered body on the ground. The deceased belonged to Philip Colbert, a well-off man from Chicago who was planning to build a factory in town. This murder causes an undesired commotion in the rural town. Police Chief Bill Gillespie finds himself burdened to catch the killer of Philip Colbert.

In High Noon the action is very short. Kane engages in a shoot out with Miller and his goons. However through out the film Kane is given the opportunity to leave, but he wants to finish what he started and stop Miller once and for all. Kane and Rainsford never gave up, and their settings didn't help their cause.

The main character in "High Noon" is Will Kane. He is a retired marshal who has to work alone to defeat the antagonist, Frank Miller. In the beginning of the movie, Kane has just married his wife and has just retired from his job. Someone tells him that Miller is back in town, and at first runs away, but quickly returns because he knows that Miller will find him even if he runs. Over time, Kane gets nervous and worried and eventually loses his calm

In comparing and contrasting the book, The Most Dangerous Game and the movie “High Noon”, I found that even though they were different mediums, the had many similar story elements. My supporting paragraphs in my essay are based on character, plot, and setting. In the paragraphs I’m going to show how they are alike and different. After reading these two articles I’ve learned you have to be brave.

The paper discusses how the critical reception shifts over a period of time. The paper is mainly focused on the film "Sunrise", directed by F. Marnau in 1927. Initially the movie got mixed reviews from the critics; however this film became to be known as a cinematic masterpiece in future decades.

High Noon, a western film mostly respected by conservative viewers, and endlessly ranked over by critics. This was an exciting movie considering it was a black and white film. The whole movie was about the loyalty of a town marshal named Kane and the betrayal of the town. After watching High Noon, there were a lot of fallacies that were depicted through out the movie such as begging the question, ad hominem, slippery slope, and Inconsistency. The characters in the movie do a great job at portraying each of these fallacies.

High Noon is the tale of Marshal Will Kane (Gary Cooper) and his new wife Amy (Grace Kelly); set on their wedding day, in classic "Western" fashion he's about to ride off into the sunset now that he has outlived his usefulness to the town when he learns that Frank Miller ( a criminal Will had previously arrested for murder) will arrive on the noon train with his gang, seeking revenge. Marshal Kane tries to round up a posse of the townspeople but none of them will stand with him, even his deputy hides at home with his wife when the Marshal comes to him for help. Only a 14-year-old, a half blind old man and the Marshal's Quaker pacifist wife make any efforts to help him. Amy urges him to flee the town with her and he refuses choosing instead to face Frank singlehandedly. Hearing the sound of gunfire from on board the train, Amy chooses her husband's life over her Quaker pacifist beliefs and shoots Pierce in the back.

“Good Night, and Good Luck” is not your typical Hollywood film full of conventional action, cliff hangers, and romance. It is however a masterpiece of its time, about an era that many Americans try to forget. George Clooney, an esteemed American Actor and director of this film tried to capture a period of time known as the McCarthy Era where the “red scare” or fear of communism allowed the Senator from Wisconsin to try and convict suspected traitors. Its historical accuracy with real footage, quotations, and individuals, along with the distinct characteristics of Edward R. Murrow by actor David Strathairn are remarkably accurate. The film takes place virtually entirely in

In the first assault scene at the beginning of the film, I thought that the north and the south both had strong motives and they were both willing to give it their all in order to preserve and defend their cause. This beginning scene if very heart broken because a lot of men died suddenly from one moment to the next. This makes me reflect on how hard and very divesting the civil war was not just for the women but also for the men who lost their families, wives, homes, and even their lives for the greater cause to which they were fighting for. The Union assault scene is very overwhelming to watch because during the civil war the tactics used were very harsh. For instance, when the Union placed explosive beneath the southern soldiers and blew them to pieces; not only destroying the men but everything in its path. At the beginning of the film one thing that can be noticed is that the north had a very different way of fight compared to the south. For instance, the south used trenches as way of defense and the north many of the soldiers were lined up in perfect lines which makes it seem as if the north was more organized then the south, in the sense of the way they defended their cause.

12 Angry Men is a 1957 American courtroom drama film adapted from a teleplay of the same name by Reginald Rose. Written and co-produced by Rose himself and directed by Sidney Lumet, this trial film tells the story of a jury made up of 12 men as they deliberate the guilt or acquittal of a defendant on the basis of reasonable doubt, forcing the jurors to question their morals and values. In the United States, a verdict in most criminal trials by jury must be unanimous. The film is notable for its almost exclusive use of one set: out of 96 minutes of run time, only three minutes take place outside of the jury room.

Phil Newsom screenplay is the major asset of the film. Although the initial scenes could have been more engaging as we can feel it as the usual murder story. The climax of the film really makes us forget the ordinary start of the film. His direction was good at visualizing the script, however, technical elements of the film could have been handled well to add value.
