the Coen brothers’ ‘Miller’s Crossing’, Alan Ladd’s ‘The Glass Key’
They're the same movie
And I'd kick out High Noon and The Outsiders and add The Bad News Bears

You’d kick out Gary Cooper? High Noon was a masterpiece.

I've been saying that for years, Krankor. If not the same film, then a very strong hommage to the former.

Glad someone else has noticed too. Though I still prefer Bill Bendix's 'Jeff' punching out Alan Ladd in 'The Glass Key'. J.E. Freeman's Eddie Dane gets all of the best lines while tuning up Gabriel Byrne's Tom Reagan in 'Miller's Crossing'

I'd also toss 'The Outsiders' for Steve McQueen in 'Hell Is For Heroes' and 'Gentlemen's Agreement' for Gregory Peck and Dean Jagger in '12 O'Clock High'.


Jack.
