    High Noon

    Reviewed by
    maverick@

    Released when the Cold War was starting to build steam, director Fred Zinneman and writer Carl Foreman both drew the ire of right-wing America for their portrayal of the citizenry of a small western town. John Wayne called the closing scenes 'un-American', and he and director Howard Hawks put out 'Rio Bravo' in 1959 to counteract and negate the viewpoints expressed in High Noon. Zinneman and Foreman both became victims of the prevalent anti-Communist hysteria and were unable to find work in the film industry for years.
