Sex & Nudity

  • No nudity, though a number of women show cleavage (including some close-ups) in outfits typical of a western saloon setting. Dialogue includes the topic of prostitution, and quite a few "veiled references" to sexual topics, likely to go over the heads of young children. Some casual kissing, and one time when an unmarried man puts his hand on an unmarried woman's clothed breast and they then proceed to kiss passionately before the scene fades away. Later, it is implied that they had sexual relations.

Violence & Gore

  • No gore at all. Several scenes include guns, and in the climax, a number of men get shot and fall off their horses. There are also times when guns are used in a threatening manner, but not actually fired. They are also used to round up livestock. On one occasion, a man is wounded in his leg by a knife stab. Dialogue refers to a lot of people killed for seemingly trivial reasons by a member of "the mob". A man is severely beaten.

Profanity

  • Infrequent use of mild profanity... maybe one "a" word, along with a couple "damn"s and "hell"s. I don't recall them mentioning God or Jesus in any profane way.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Several scenes take place in different saloons, where there's lots of drinking and smoking. Dialogue includes the illegal sale of alcohol. A couple of the characters share a bottle of whiskey on more than one occasion. Plenty of people are seen smoking, and in one case, a man takes a page from a Shakespeare book and uses it to roll up a cigarette.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The plot hinges around a very bad man who tries to chase down a woman whom he believes he "owns", resulting in multiple tense / threatening scenes. At one point, a man who was injured receives stitches at home using just a needle and thread. A sickly woman dies a painful death from tuberculosis, in the arms of a friend.
