Gary Cooper stars in this classic Western as Hadleyville
marshal Will Kane. He is about to retire from office and go on his honeymoon
with his new Quaker bride, Amy (Grace Kelly). His plans are interrupted when
the Miller gang, whose leader Will had arrested, is coming back into town.
Despite Amy's protests, Will feels he must stay and defend Hadleyville but no
one in the town will help him. As the clock edges towards High Noon (the film
is shot in real time) Kane walks to the center of town preparing for a
showdown.
