Leans Traditional
Primary

Secondary
Goin' South does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The story centers on a male-female relationship in a Western comedy context, with no elements related to queer identity present in the narrative.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
