The differences and movie techniques in the movie High Noon compared to the short story “Tin Star” made the movie better and more interesting. One difference is Mrs.Ramirez she isn’t in the story at all. However she is in many scenes in the movie. Mrs.Ramirez gets in a fight with her husband and he thinks that she is unloyal. This reveals that she was once friends with Mr.Kean. In another scene she has a talk with Mrs.Kean and she says that Mr.Kean is Mrs.Kean’s man not hers. She also lives in a hotel and towards the end of the story she decides to leave town on the noon train.

I think the scriptwriter and the director made this choice to add more drama and so people could see things from Mrs .Kean’s point of

These movies allowed female characters to embody all the contradictions that could make them a woman. They were portrayed as the “femme fatale” and also “mother,” the “seductress” and at the same time the “saint,” (Newsom, 2011). Female characters were multi-faceted during this time and had much more complexity and interesting qualities than in the movies we watch today. Today, only 16% of protagonists in movies are female, and the portrayal of these women is one of sexualization and dependence rather than complexity (Newsom, 2011).
