Paper Summary:

The paper shows that the implied ideology of the overall production of the film "High Noon" is the dilemma faced by outgoing town marshal (Gary Cooper's Academy Award portrayal of Will Kane) over which path to choose, fight or flight. The paper shows why the paper is considered one of the best 100 movies of the past century, due mostly to its ideological messages and values.

From the Paper:

"It's at this point the true ideologies of the individuals making up the population of Hadleyville come to the fore. The town splits into two basic factions. Those who will leave before the hell breaks out, and those who shall stay in the vain hope of profiting from the town's return to lawlessness. Will Kane struggles with his promise to his new bride to leave Hadleyville and not look back - a position Amy steadfastly clings to even up to the point of leaving Kane if he fails in his efforts to keep his word to her."
