From Noon Till Three (1976)

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

What makes it different from others?

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

... because although it shows the great chemistry between Charles Bronson and Jill Ireland, real life husband and wife acting team until she was taken from us too soon by cancer, this Western love story is based upon Charles Bronson's character (Graham)being an attempted rapist, and being an actual rapist had his intended victim (Jill Ireland as widow Amanda) not been so (initially) clever.Graham stays behind at Amanda's ranch after his horse gives out, having had premonitions that his gang will be caught during the bank robbery that was planned. You see, the whole idea of stopping at Amanda's was to find him a fresh horse, and when he finds one after she lies about having one, he just confirms the lie. So the gang rides out to rob the bank and pick Graham up later, and Graham proceeds to chase Amanda through the house attempting to rape her. She counters by saying that she knows he'll win in the end and rather than suffer her clothes being ripped apart and her being physically assaulted beyond the rape she just lays down passively like a corpse.This is very unappealing to Graham, so he devises a tale of impotence to get Amanda's sympathy, it works, and they have a three hour love affair. But word comes back that Graham's premonitions were right. His gang was caught and will be hanged that afternoon. Amanda, considering Graham to be a gallant character - gosh she has a short memory - encourages him to ride into town and save them. Graham finally gives in and rides out, intending to only nap for awhile and then come back saying he failed.But the posse finds him and gives chase anyways, and Graham forces a traveling dentist to change clothes and horses with him, causing the dentist to be shot and killed by the posse in Graham's place. Graham is not home free though, because he changed clothes with the wrong dentist - a quack dentist who is wanted by the law himself.Amanda looks upon the dead man's clothes and faints, believing Graham dead and is at first ostracized for consorting with Graham, but then she first verbally speaks of their great love and is forgiven, then writes what turns out to be a best selling book about their three hour love affair, greatly embellishing Graham's character and appearance. The story even spawns a hit play, and the royalties from all of this make Amanda a rich woman.Will Graham ever get back to Amanda again and how? And if he does will she even recognize him, since Amanda isn't actually lying because she has come to believe all of this legend herself? Watch and find out.This is a western just full of clever ironies. It's rather a product of its time - the 1970s - when people would rather believe a pleasant lie than know the unvarnished truth, because they are pretty sure that unvarnished truth is going to be unpleasant.

I'm not the world's biggest Western expert, but I can count the number of Western love stories on one hand.Many Westerns might include a love element as a subplot, or toss a love story away blithely to demonstrate hardness, but this film is 100% a love story.Bronson brings a refreshing realistic 70s anti-hero attitude to his character, an outlaw who dreams that he's going to die in a robbery, and so bows out, stumbling on a jackpot of romancing a widowed and wealthy Jill Ireland. They fit as much romance as possible into 3 hours. The plot goes awry soon thereafter and does a really deft job of remaining unpredictable to the end.That Bronson and Ireland were married in real life just adds to their chemistry and tragic foreshadowing.This film should appeal to ladies, and could make a good date night film, if you can find it, and has enough action and twists to entertain men, unless they are also romantic, and then this film pulls at the heartstrings quite a bit, but generally avoids becoming totally syrupy, if slightly wacky at times.You really want to reach into the film and guide the characters away from danger, that's how engaging their romance becomes. There are other moments in which this film drifts refreshingly away from the many clichés of the average Western.I saw it on the THIS channel on Nov 5 2013, and I don't think I'd seen it since I was a kid in the 70s or 80s. It doesn't seem to get broadcast much.

I saw this at the drive-in many years ago as the support feature to 'Rocky', which I also unexpectedly liked. This wonderful little film caught me completely by surprise, since I had previously only known Bronson from his many boofhead action flicks. This beautiful little two-hander was a complete and delightful surprise, providing a fine showcase for the late, great Jill Ireland (a rather underrated actress IMO) and giving Chuck a rare chance to show that he was in fact a damn fine actor who was capable of much more than people gave him credit for. I can really only echo what others have said here -- it's a funny, intelligent, touching and very rewarding film that comes out of left field and will really surprise and please you if you give it a chance.

For a few hours, an outlaw romances a prim and proper widow while his gang's away attempting to rob a bank. Their passionate sexual affair, as short as it was, soon becomes a best-selling novel, despite the fact that his stories to her, larger-than-life and fictional, are lies, taking off a life of their own. Assuming the identity of a crooked dentist, who pulled the gold teeth of his patrons, he's sent to jail, and the one he swapped roles with is killed by a hunting party. Graham Dorsey, presumed dead, can no longer take back his identity, his namesake, due to the ridiculous legend that has grown from Mrs. Starbuck's novel, and this will forever haunt him, even after meeting her once he's free from jail.I must admit that this was a pleasure to sit through, and is quite a pleasant western for the most part, with probably Chuck Bronson's most humane, charming, performance of his career. But, in saying that, I found the ending rather sad and tragic, what lengths Mrs Starbuck will go to keep her novel's legendary status intact, and how Dorsey will never be able to have his life back. It's clever, damn clever, but rather depressing if you think about it. I think this is the best chance to see Bronson and wife Jill Ireland at their best on screen together, and proves that she wasn't just some actress who came along because of being married to him, part of the package so to speak. Ireland holds her own and has these wonderful moments while her Amanda remains repressed, reveals much in her eyes, tears that are present as if her feelings wish to spill out despite her desire to bury them under a cold exterior. Bronson is so incredibly likable, I think his performance proves the critics, who always hated him and his movies, are wrong in that he never was able to pull off a character with any depth or dimension. I enjoyed this movie tremendously, what a nice surprise, and I think writer/director Gillroy's script effectively satirizes the nature of the difference between reality and myth, how a person, no matter how average he may actually be, can become a folk hero thanks to the fictionalized accounts of someone who remembers him being much more than he really is. What an amazing mansion where Ireland's Amanda lives!
