When I look at a masterpiece such as High Noon, I think it's sad that Wayne even 20 years after it, in his infamous Playboy-interview, said, he was "glad that I ran him out of the country", that's Carl Foreman who worked in England after that (did Guns of Navarone, for instance). Though I can understand why certain people in Hollywood hated the film at that time, Wayne being one of them, for it really was an off-beat western, targeting the McCarthy people. Emotinally, Wayne had a memory of "old Coop stepping on the sheriff's badge" which isn't true, of course - he just drops it.
