@deanduncan63Saw #SilverLode. An impressively stoical take on High Noon‘s extracinematically compelling (a tale of the Hollywood blacklist) …

#SilverLode. That inexorable plot—screw, tightening—is really effective! H-cock’s Wrong Man idea/theme, in what is arguably …
… a much more important setting, & moral setting. Dan Duryea is a terrific baddie, practically to an historic degree.
