I have recently watched a movie called High Noon and just read a short story called "The Most Dangerous Game." High Noon came out in theaters in 1952 and is about a Marshall who has four criminals who want revenge on him for putting one of them in jail. It has cowboys and gun fights in the Old West. "The Most Dangerous Game" came out in 1924 and is about hunting and the main character surviving all by himself. Both of these stories are very well told and partly have suspense.

GOOD AND EVIL The movie "High Noon" has interesting comparisons to the philosophies and views of Immanuel Kant and John Stuart Mill.

In ‘High Noon’ Will Kane justifies the use of pre-emptive violence to stop a potential threat to society. In his article James Woolsey uses the same reasoning to defend US foreign policy and criticize Europe. Comment on this analogy. To what extent do you think American foreign policy has been influenced by Western mythologies? At first glance‚ the analogy between Fred Zinnemann’s masterpiece and Mr. Woolsey’s article is well grounded. However‚ a close scrutiny suggests that few substantial elements

In 1952 there were multiple fantastic films that made it a close competition for best picture. I narrowed down my list of movies to The Quiet Man‚ High Noon‚ and The Greatest Show on Earth. I narrowed it down to these three because Moulin Rouge and Ivanhoe did not perform up to the standards it needed to have a chance at best picture. By thoroughly evaluating these films it has been determined that The Greatest Show on Earth clearly deserved to win its best picture award becuase of its emotional

In my opinion‚ “High Noon” is a very good example of a Stoic film and it supports the Stoic philosophy in many different ways.
