High Noon1952

Kane:
I sent a man up five years ago for murder. He was supposed to hang. But up North, they commuted it to life and now he's free. I don't know how. Anyway, it looks like he's coming back.

Amy:
I still don't understand.

Kane:
He was always wild and kind of crazy. He'll probably make trouble.

Amy:
But that's no concern of yours, not anymore.

Kane:
I'm the one who sent him up.

Amy:
Well, that was part of your job. That's finished now. They've got a new marshal.

Kane:
He won't be here until tomorrow. Seems to me I've got to stay. Anyway, I'm the same man with or without this. [He pins his badge on his vest]

Amy:
Oh, that isn't so.

Kane:
I expect he'll come lookin' for me. Three of his old bunch are waiting at the depot.

Amy:
That's exactly why we ought to go.

Kane:
They'll just come after us, four of 'em, and we'd be all alone on the prairie.

Amy:
We've got an hour.

Kane:
What's an hour?...What's a hundred miles? We'd never be able to keep that store, Amy. They'd come after us and we'd have to run again, as long as we live.

Amy:
No we wouldn't, not if they didn't know where to find us. Oh Will! Will, I'm begging you, please let's go.

Kane:
I can't.

Amy:
Don't try to be a hero. You don't have to be a hero, not for me.

Kane:
I'm not trying to be a hero. If you think I like this, you're crazy.
