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.

This makes it better because women who watch the movie may find it more interesting. …show more content…
On their wedding day people in town get news that Frank Miller is coming back to twom. Mr.Kean explains this to his wife and says he doesn’t if he will survive. Mrs.Kean is very upset about this and says she doesn't want to wait until noon to see if she will be a wife or a widow.

Therefore the grave site scene is taken out and the marriage scene and other scenes that involve Mrs.Kean are added in. 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).
It is no secret that there is an obvious difference of how women are portrayed in the media versus men. This movie discussed female characters never having lead roles and stated that when they did it ended in the women depending on, loving, or having to have a man. One young high school girl said, “Women never play the protagonist. The girls are

She does not get herself out of them, others, often the men around her, do it. Tracy comes to realize what she wants in life through the men around her. Kittredge shows her that she does not want this upstanding and perfect gentleman to lead her through life, most likely because she would eventually get bored. Mike Connor helps with this by becoming romantically involved with her for a night. She wants adventure, and this affair helps show her that she is not as perfect as she seems.
She is portrayed in a sexualised way that empowers men and objectifies women. Again Baz Luhrmann has portrayed another woman as an object instead of an equal to men and has made the feelings of a woman less important than the desires of the
