Cooper’s famously strong and silent screen persona, and his understated acting style, can be seen in several famous instances right away on the first evening, June 4, in a lineup that includes his Best Actor Oscar-nominated performances in Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936) and The Pride of the Yankees (1942), and his Best Actor-winning title role in Sergeant York (1941).

On June 18, the Cooper celebration begins with one of his most iconic performances, in the legendary Western that won him his second Best Actor Oscar (which was accepted on his behalf by John Wayne since Cooper couldn’t attend the ceremony): High Noon (1952). That evening’s lineup also includes several other, perhaps lesser-known, Cooper-led Westerns, including The Hanging Tree (1959), Dallas (1950) and Springfield Rifle (1952).
