High Noon

In a 200 word post to your blog, answer one of the following questions:

1. Which of the opposing arguments to Kane's position did you agree with? Why? Was it more compelling than Kane's? (I'm especially interested in seeing what those of you who thought the town's reputation was more important that fighting Frank Miller have to say.)

2. Could we say that Kane was a Christ archetype, or am I completely off the rails? Defend your answer.

3. How did the shots (size and angle) help tell the story?

4. How would you characterize Helen Ramirez?

5. Is this a film for conservatives or liberals?

6. Why shoot in black and white? Singin' in the Rain was released in the same year and it's in color.

7. Answer one of your own questions.
