Hang 'Em High is a 1968 Western film directed by Ted Post and starring Clint Eastwood.The action starts off with Jed Cooper (Eastwood) being wrongfully accused of murder and cattle-rustling by Captain Wilson (Ed Begley) and his posse, who then proceed to lynch him — but not very well; he lives long enough for a passing U.S. Marshal to cut him down and take him to territorial Judge Fenton (Pat Hingle). Cooper's story of being a one-time lawman from St. Louis checks out, and Fenton offers him a job as a marshal to bring Wilson and the rest of the men who lynched him to justice... but with the understanding that he bring them in alive. | |

Kirk Summation: The reason why one of the men scheduled to be hanged en masse (unsuccessfully) uses his last request to try to get the deliverer (a God-fearing young man who was truly repentant for the crimes he got caught up in) of said summation to shut up. | |

Minion with an F in Evil | |
| Hang 'Em High / int_35f57671 | comment |
Minion with an F in Evil: One character, realizing they'd hung an innocent man, gives himself up to the Judge and is only imprisoned. At the end of the episode Jed insists that he be released (as he's dying in prison conditions) if he's going to continue working for the Judge. Two of the bushwhackers are just kids who didn't kill anyone—and they even make it a point not to help their leader at all in his attempt to escape and kill Cooper. As such, Jed repeatedly pleads with the Judge to spare them. Alas, cattle rustling is a capital offence and Fenton rejects his pleas. | |

Hanging Around | |
| Hang 'Em High / int_49cf2258 | comment |
Hanging Around: Given the title of the film and the genre would you expect anything less? The film starts with Jed Cooper being lynched by a group of 9 vigilantes due to a wrongful accusation of murder. He survives it and is given the chance to bring the men to justice. Judge Fenton is a Hanging Judge who lives up to the name and is used as a contrast to Jed who ultimately seeks leniency for some of the vigilantes, despite having every reason not to. Captain Wilson expecting the worst when Jed finally has him cornered, decides to hang himself instead of facing him. The man that framed Jed gets hanged for the exact crime he tried to pin on Jed. | |

Vigilante Injustice: The Big Bad Ensemble of the film is a posse who mistook protagonist Jed Cooper for a cattle thief on circumstantial evidence (Jed had the bad luck of purchasing his cattle very shortly before the real thief killed the man Jed bought it from, a fact discovered by a proper Circuit Judge much later in the day) and lynched him, only for Jed to survive and come looking for them as the judge's newly-appointed Sheriff, and while Jed tries to not go on the customary Roaring Rampage of Revenge, the majority of the members of the posse refuse to be arrested. | |

The Big Bad Shuffle | |
| Hang 'Em High / int_77eeb348 | comment |
The Big Bad Shuffle: While Captain Wilson is the obvious candidate for being unwilling to back down, Fenton seems a good candidate too because of his tendency to hang people. Wilson hangs himself when Cooper corners him causing him to decide to turn in his badge (among other reasons). Fenton convinces him to be his counter point man and naysayer in order to keep him honest. | |

Unknowingly Possessing Stolen Goods: At the start of the film, Jed is driving his herd of cattle across a stream when a posse of men surround Jed, demanding Jed show them the receipt for the cattle. It turns out that the man who sold Jed the cattle killed the original owner and stole them and sold them off to Jed. Jed tries to explain that he knew nothing about the murder, but they don't believe him and leave him hanging. Jed gets rescued and his innocence is proven. He becomes a deputy as he looks to bring the posse to justice. | |

Benevolent Boss: This trait is the one thing that keeps Captain Wilson from indisputably crossing the Moral Event Horizon when he decides to murder Cooper to stop his pursuit. Wilson gives his cowhands Loomis and Tommy a chance to back out, telling them that they're both young men who wouldn't be ruined by a prison term and that he'll understand if they turn themselves in. | |

| Hang 'Em High / int_b032e4ed | comment |
Ms. Fanservice: The redheaded girl who makes out with Jed when he's in town, implied to be a High-Class Call Girl. She offers her "help" to him when he's recovering from the exhaustion of bringing in three bushwhackers by himself. | |

No Historical Figures Were Harmed | |
| Hang 'Em High / int_b0855ef3 | comment |
No Historical Figures Were Harmed: Judge Fenton is a very thinly-veiled and surprisingly realistic Expy of Judge Isaac C. Parker, "The Hanging Judge" of Real Life whose jurisdiction encompassed Arkansas and the Indian Territory (a map of which is called attention to by Fenton himself when commissioning Cooper). | |

Any Last Words? | |
| Hang 'Em High / int_be15f78c | comment |
Any Last Words?: During a multiple public hanging, the condemned are allowed to give this trope to the assembled crowd, who regard the occasion as public entertainment. One man gives a lengthy speech of how his dissolute ways lead to his demise and urging others not to follow his path. Another prisoner's final words are a request that the first man shut up so they can Get It Over With. | |

Roaring Rampage of Revenge | |
| Hang 'Em High / int_ceec4df5 | comment |
Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Subverted. Averted at first in that the judge makes it clear to Cooper he wants the nine who hanged him alive. Problem is, some of those nine men are not going to go quietly. The whole movie makes it clear that revenge isn't as clean as the characters thought it would be. | |

Determinator: Jed. He survives being hanged and later on being shot by the villains, and hunts them down the very second he's officially back to full health. | |
