I watched High Noon last night. I thought they stuck to the book as best as possible and cut out secondary characters where it made since so that the movie only lasted 2 hours with commercials. But with the cuts, I felt that if you hadn't read the book you wouldn't really understand the hero's relationship with his friend's family. I also thought they lightened up the story a bit by changing the outcome of the cemetary scene, as well as the scene where the heroine is attacked in the stairwell. I guess they didn't want to get too gritty with the movie. (Summer Sharp 3:29pm April 5, 2009)
I have seen High Noon and thouroughly enjoyed this movie (Rebecca Booth 3:07pm April 11, 2009)
I've not seen High Noon and I know it's been out a while. I would like to see it though I love a good western! (Brenda Rupp 9:48pm January 30, 2010)
