Don Stivers demonstrates his remarkable aptitude for portraiture once again. From the 1952 film "High Noon," Gary Cooper stars as Will Kane, a newly-married sheriff that must stand alone against a band of killers seeking revenge. The townspeople are too frightened to help the lawman who they claim to respect; the film is said to be an allegory about Joseph McCarthy and his House Un-American Activities Committee focus on the motion picture industry. The film garnered 4 Oscars including a Best Actor award for Gary Cooper.
