I have chosen to describe the mise-en-scène from the “Trouble rides into town” sequence in the film “High Noon (USA 1952), directed by Fred Zinneman”. This is the scene near the beginning of the film when three of the men [Ben Miller (played by Sheb Wooley), Jack Colby (played by Lee Van Cleef) and Pierce, first name unknown (played by Robert Wilke)] who will later take part in a shoot-out with the protagonist Will Kane (played by Gary Cooper) and his new wife Amy Fowler Kane (played by Grace Kelly). ... The mise-en-scène and cinematography of the scene have been admirably designed to let the audience experience this apprehensive and ominous feeling that the characters of “High Noon” do as time draws closer to midday and the foreshadowed discord to come. ... The mid-morning sun rising higher and higher in the sky as the film progresses motivates the light. ... The actors’ makeup shows that their faces are dirt-smudged and their chins are stubbled from lack of shaving (Later we see that all of the other men in the film are clean-shaven or have neatly groomed facial hair. ... The man wears similar Western clothing to the other characters in the film: cowboy boots, collared shirt, cowboy hat. ...
Although this may not be the most thrilling point in the film, or even the scene with the highest level of tension, it is still incredibly essential to the plot development. ... The elements of mise-en-scène that make these critical plot points and emotions crystal clear to the audience have been cleverly crafted in this scene to make it certain we know exactly what is going down in Hadleyville.
