Suzan is in heaven this week, because Hollywood has finally figured out how to make a good Western, and even David enjoyed High Noon. Gary Cooper stars as a deputy literally an hour from retirement who is called by a sense of duty to protect the town he’s about to leave, anyway, from a gang he put away before who are headed back to town on the 12:00 train. Cooper is a surprising choice for a Western (and was the fifth choice for the role), but he once you see it, you can’t imagine High Noon with anyone else.
