BFI Film Academy Recommends: High Noon (dir. Fred Zinnemann 1952)

'This slow-burn Western unravels like a fearful journey across a desert with no water. Gary Cooper triumphs as Marshall Will Kane, the loneliest newlywed in New Mexico, who’s out to carve his legacy on a small town’s porch. Cloaked in the fabric of the ideal gentleman, he attempts to restore integrity in the town. High Noon emphasises the power of fear and how a community can turn its back on honour with a faint promise of something new.' - Young Programmer, Osian Andrew

Catch High Noon at the BFI Southbank on from Thu 5 June! Tickets on sale now.
