High-Noon (1952). Starring: Gary Cooper, Grace Kelly
High Noon is classic good versus evil, a common theme in most western film; however it distinguishes itself by creating a character study rather than an action picture.

One of the greatest western films in the history of cinema, High Noon is a must see for all those who have a passion for movies and compelling characters. Continue reading
Movie Review: A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE, 2005
Never in the history of comic book films has a film adaptation been so wildly off base of the plot line of the original novel and been so accepted by fans…and critically successful.

Finally. America has been patient and now the weight has been lifted. We have dreamed of this day ever since the finale of “Frasier.” Not since John Travolta in Pulp Fiction has there been such an impressing reemergence into the lime light. David Hyde Pierce is back! Continue reading
