| Topic | Presenting: The SephG Top 250 [movies] |

Many of them are kind of dumb, boring, cheesy, even a tad (a lot) racist. But High Noon is very different. It deals with complex moral decisions in a very intelligent way without making for a slow or pontificating tale. In fact, in terms of movies that keep you "on the edge of your seat" and keep your heart racing, I'd probably put this in the top 5. It runs an absolute clinic for pacing and tension. Guess I'll have to keep it in mind, then. The only proper Westerns I've seen are the Dollars trilogy (which I enjoyed) and the 1960 Magnificent Seven (which bounced right off me). --- "I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people who do."
