Krátky popis
From the&,nbsp,New York Times-bestselling author
of&,nbsp,The Searchers, the revelatory story behind the classic
movie&,nbsp,High Noon&,nbsp,and the toxic political climate
in which it was created. It's one of the most revered movies of
Hollywood's golden era. Starring screen legend Gary Cooper and
Grace Kelly in her first significant film role,&,nbsp,High
Noon&,nbsp,was shot on a lean budget over just thirty-two days
but achieved instant box-office and critical success. It won four
Academy Awards in 1953, including a best actor win for Cooper. And
it became a cultural touchstone, often cited by politicians as a
favorite film, celebrating moral fortitude. Yet what has been often
overlooked is that&,nbsp,High Noon&,nbsp,was made during
the height of the Hollywood blacklist, a time of political
inquisition and personal betrayal. In the middle of the film shoot,
screenwriter Carl Foreman was forced to testify before the House
Committee on Un-American Activities about his former membership in
the Communist Party. Refusing to name names, he was eventually
blacklisted and fled the United States. (His co-authored screenplay
for another classic,&,nbsp,The Bridge on the River Kwai, went
uncredited in 1957.) Examined in light of Foreman's
testimony,&,nbsp,High Noon's emphasis on courage and loyalty
takes on deeper meaning and importance. In this book, Pulitzer
Prize-winning journalist Glenn Frankel tells the story of the
making of a great American Western, exploring how Carl Foreman's
concept of&,nbsp,High Noon&,nbsp,evolved from idea to first
draft to final script, taking on allegorical weight. Both the
classic film and its turbulent political times emerge newly
illuminated.
