* AwardSnub: Its only Oscar nominations were for screenplay and score, and it lost both, not even being up for Best Picture or Director. Lou Lombardo's groundbreaking editing work not even getting nominated is a particularly puzzling snub.

* JerksAreWorseThanVillains: In a film with bandits, bounty hunters and a crooked general, Harrigan, the belligerent asshole railroad baron stands out as being the most unsympathetic character in the film, showing absolutely no regard for the lives lost in the opening shoot-out and lacking even a sense of humour that even the more depraved characters have. Amazingly, he's not among the many ''many'' people who die in the film.

** Deke and his posse are tracking the Bunch and learn that they're heading for a Mexican town. Deke asks what's there and Coffer replies, "Mexicans, what else?" The posse laughs, while Deke regrets his life choices.

* TearJerker: After the final shootout is over, Thornton and his band of bounty hunters come across the wreckage. As his subordinates are gleefully looting the dead, Thornton stops in his tracks when he comes across [[spoiler: Pike's body. The camera zooms in on the six-shooter Pike has holstered which Thornton picks up. The look on his face while he's cradling it is just heartwrenching]].

** Both Pike and Deke reminisce on their separation. It's clear that both men regret how the circumstances. In fact, Creator/SamPeckinpah had a hard time calling cut on the "I wouldn't have it any other way" bit because he was crying himself.
