High Noon (1952)
Fred Zinnemann's 1952 western shot in real time. The clock is the antagonist.
Carl Foreman wrote High Noon and was blacklisted during its production, and the film’s story of a man abandoned by his community is generally read as a direct response. He moved to Britain and wrote The Bridge on the River Kwai without credit, receiving the Academy Award posthumously.
