Has anyone heard of the term Low Noon?

Answer 1

I am sure I have; it means say 5pm when the strength of the sun has gone right down. Clearly the opposite of high noon. High Noon starts off as meaning around Midday when the Sun is at its strongest But has been twisted by old black and white movies to mean there's going to be some gunfight when tempers are at their highest. Hope you get the idea.

Answer 3

Low noon isn't a term, it's the name of a CD (Low Noon by TOXIC LOUNGE)
Low noon is probably a parady of High Noon the film with Gary Cooper
HIGH NOON: Will Kane (Gary Cooper), the marshal of Hadleyville, has just married pacifist Quaker Amy (Grace Kelly) and plans to resign from his post at the end of the day. Then the whole town hears that Frank Miller (Ian MacDonald), a man he had arrested and sent to the gallows, has been paroled. Miller is due to arrive on the noon train and his gang is waiting for him at the station. When he arrives, he and his gang intend to exact revenge.

Everybody wants Kane to leave immediately, to avoid trouble. His wife threatens to leave on the noon train without him if he stays, but he refuses to give in. He spends most of the day trying to get the townspeople to back him up, to no avail. Even his deputy, Harvey Pell (Lloyd Bridges), refuses to help. Only his former mistress, Helen Ramírez (Katy Jurado), supports him, but there is little she can do to help.

In the end, Kane faces the four gunmen by himself. He shoots down two of Miller's men. Amy chooses her husband's life over her religious beliefs and kills the third by shooting him in the back while he reloads his gun in an alley next to Kane's office, in which she has taken refuge. Miller then takes her hostage. Miller then offers to trade her for Kane. Kane agrees, coming out into the open. Amy, however, struggles with Miller, clawing his face as the two men shoot. Kane's shot kills Miller. He then contemptuously throws his marshal's star in the dirt and leaves town with his wife.

Answer 5

High Noon takes place in Summer time (in the Northern hemisphere) when the sun is almost directly above at noon and so at it's hottest at 12.00 a.m. In Wintertime the sun is much lower in the sky at 12.00 am and so you have 'Low Noon'.
