Synopsis:

A gunslinger known as The Man Called Noon (Richard Crenna) loses his memory after being shot during a surprise attack. As he searches for his identity, it becomes clear that he is on a mission to avenge the deaths of his wife and child. He meets and befriends outlaw R. B. Rimes (Stephen Boyd) and he receives comfort from a lady named Fan (Rosanna Schiaffino). Together, they try to piece together the clues and discover who shot him and just who he is. The villain proves to be Judge Niland (Farley Granger), and the trio go to extraordinary lengths to put him out of action.

The Man Called Noon is a western about a man who is called "Noon" (Richard Crenna) because he has amnesia and has no other name. As he searches for his identity, it becomes clear that he is on a mission to avenge the deaths of his wife and child. His quest is furthered by the outlaw Rimes (Stephen Boyd) and he receives comfort from a lady named Fan (Rosanna Schiaffino). The villain proves to be Judge Niland (Farley Granger), and the trio go to extraordinary lengths to put him out of action.

Noon is a gunfighter who has become amnesiac. Helped by Rimes, an outlaw who has befriended him, he tries to figure out who he is actually. It gradually appears that his wife and kid have been murdered. As time goes by, Noon also recalls a fortune hidden somewhere. Niland, a scheming judge, and Peg Cullane, a greedy will do everything to prevent Noon and Rimes from achieving their end while Fan Davidge, a woman living in a ghost town, will support them.
