3* Matt's EstablishingCharacterMoment when he ''immediately'' pulls out a small-sized gun on Dunson after he slaps him back to reality.
4** Dunson gets his own CMOA when [[ISurrenderSuckers he pretends to stand down]], then quickly lunges toward him, slapping him again, and taking away his gun.
5* Tom Dunson [[FastestGunInTheWest quickly shooting and killing a Mexican landowner]], the ''second'' he pulls out his gun and before the Mexican even gets a chance to shoot.
6* Always thought it was awesome the way Cherry tried to take a stand against Dunson near the end of the film. Up until that point everyone ''including the audience'' assumed that because of Cherry's moral duplicity, he and ''Matt'' would be the ones to fight it out over something trivial. In the end Matt wins Cherry over and Cherry tries his best to protect him.
7--> '''Melville''': You know that young man (''Matt'') isn't gonna use his gun, don't ya?
8--> '''Cherry''': Yeah. But I haven't any such notions.
9** Also counts as a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}}.
10** Also awesome is the way [[CurbStompBattle Dunson out-draws him, knocking him out of the fight, and just keeps going without so much as breaking his stride]].
11* During the Indian attack, Tess is shot through the shoulder with an arrow. She barely grimaces before continuing to banter with Matt.
