- Hey, people!
How's it going?
We are back again with another MOVIE REACTION/COMMENTARY video!
This is another one that slipped through the cracks, back in the day.
High Noon was on every greatest films of all time list back then, but for some reason I never got around to seeing it.
I knew it starred GARY COOPER because of a DIE HARD reference, and I knew that it was laced with tension because of the old "ticking clock" motif.
There were a few surprises in terms of the cast including THOMAS MITCHELL, who we just saw in It's A Wonderful Life; not to mention, the one and only LEE VAN "Bad Boy" CLEEF.
Anyway...
I hope you have fun watching along with me, and stay tuned for more videos!

If you like westerns, I've written a western... with a unique twist. Check out this fun scene excerpt I put together for YT: ruclips.net/video/TwIroBK_mCs/видео.html
Katy Jurado was SO beautiful in this... and was definitely robbed of an Oscar nomination for this
She was definitely memorable. Her look is unique and she gives a commanding performance.
Deputy is Lloyd Bridges who was mostly a serious actor, which is why they used him in Airplane. he is the father of two great actors Beau and Jeff Bridges.
~ The film was shot in real time. In other words, the time of the movie depicts the time Cooper waits for the train ~
~ Cooper was a major western star for 2 decades before this film, well versed by this time to know all about handling horses and horse drawn vehicles in a naturally well worn fashion ~
Great reaction, once again! I liked how you spotted so many actors; few reactors know any of these old-timers. Thomas Mitchell, the uncle in “It’s a Wonderful Life,” won an Oscar for best supporting actor in “Stagecoach,” the classic western that made John Wayne a star. Lloyd Bridges, who was the father of actors Beau and Jeff, did many serious roles, such as Katherine Hepburn’s hard older brother in the outstanding film, “The Rainmaker,” and he had a hit TV show that I saw as a kid, “Sea Hunt.” The old lawman, BTW, was Lon Chaney, Jr.
About black and white hats: in the western that made Cooper a star, “The Virginian” (1929), he wore a white hat, and the villain wore a black hat. I think your speculation is right, as I seem to recall that Cooper was a ranch hand before he was discovered by Hollywood.
One correction: one of the first, if not the first, use of a clock that marks real time in a movie is the outstanding boxing movie, “The Set-Up” (1949), starring Robert Ryan.
Loved your interjection of the correct translation, “Thou shalt not murder.”
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks again for adding to the film suggestions list.
I didn't even realise that Lloyd Bridges was the father of Beau and Jeff. I've heard the name Beau Bridges before, but I don't remember seeing him in anything. I did look at his filmography and it's extensive.
I've wanted to see stagecoach for a while so thanks for reminding me about it.
I'll also see about getting my hands on The Virginian. I didn't know that the series was also based on the same source material.
Also, good shout about The Set Up. I think one of the boutique labels have picked it up and restored it. I held in my hands a few times to buy it, but went with some other Blu Ray in the end. I won't be doing that again, just needed the confirmation that it's worth getting.
Or maybe I'm thinking of another boxing movie.
A classic!!!!!!!
Love your appreciation of old classics. Have you seen The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance ? That one is a must watch !
Thanks for watching. Haven't seen that one, so thanks for the suggestion, I've had my eye on it.. Consider it now on the viewership suggestion list.
I really enjoyed your review of this movie. You should have a lot more views!
Glad you enjoyed the show, and thanks for taking the time to comment with words of encouragement. Let's hope the view count continues to go up, but I hope all future reactions will keep you coming back for more.
~ The song in High Noon is “Don’t Forsake Me Oh My Darling”. The song in It’s A Wonderful Life is “By The Light Of The Silvery Moon” ~
The song in IAWL is actually Buffalo Gal. By the Light of the Silvery Moon is a different song altogether.
Another great Western from the 50s you ought to watch is 'The Big Country' with Gregory Peck, Jean Simmons, Charltan Heston, directed by William Wyler
@@deckofcards87 Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. I’ve filed big country in the viewer recommendation list. 👌🏻
Cualquier parecido con este western es un utopía,
Estamos hablando del más grande western de todos los tiempos,
La credibilidad y la honestidad que transmite el ícono más grande de todos los tiempos,
GARY COOPER es oro brillante como el sol más radiante,
Luego si reunimos los actores sublimes que le acompañan es sencillamente miel sobre hojuelas,
Y por supuesto la banda sonora de DIMITRI TIOKIN , un auténtico lujo para los mejores oídos,
De todo corazón, 🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🛤🏕🏕🏕🏕🏕🏕🏕🏕🏕🏕🏕🏕🏕🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶
Y si quieres disfrutar más belleza visiona THE WESTERNER un auténtico lujo para mentes de justicia, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
In reality, the towns of the Old West, were full of people that had fought in the civil war, in the Indian wars, were buffalo hunters, and they were all very familiar with firearms. In those days, no one came into a town, and shot it up, because they knew the local towns people would get their firearms, and confront them and hang them. A man could get jailed or hanged if he carelessly bumped into a woman on the street, much less did what these guys tried to do in the movie. Case in point, in the 1890's the Dalton gang rode in to a town, and tried to rob two banks, but were shot to rags by the local townsfolk. This movie is a great story, but unrealistic to how the Old West really was, in the latter 1800's west.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Appreciate you sharing that bit of history.
But everyone has guns now and places still get shot up all the time
Now that you’ve seen HIGH NOON, you simply *have* to watch RIO BRAVO. Why? Well, HIGH NOON was intended as an allegory for the Hollywood blacklisting of the era, which occurred in the wake of the McCarthyism communist scare. But director John Ford and superstar actor John Wayne said this movie, where nobody would help the sheriff, was un-American. So, they made RIO BRAVO as a direct, and diametrically opposed answer to this film.
Thanks for watching, and thanks for sharing that bit of knowledge. I'm glad you brought up Rio Bravo and blacklisting. Back in the day, when asked what his favourite film was, Tarantino always said Rio Bravo. He's had the most impact on me creatively, so when it got re-released on DVD I watched it immediately. To be honest, it went over my head, and from memory it's just a blur. Knowing what I now know about High Noon vs. Rio Bravo, I will definitely be watching it again with fresh eyes.
Ford didn't direct Rio Bravo, it was Howard Hawks.
