Center

Primary

Political: CenterConfidence: High

The film primarily focuses on a personal quest for survival and justice in a brutal, lawless frontier, rather than explicitly promoting any specific political ideology. While it subtly explores themes of marginalization and features diverse characters, these elements serve the narrative of a Western thriller without overt political commentary.

Diversity: ModerateConfidence: High

The movie features visible diversity within its cast, including characters of different races and backgrounds, and presents strong female performances that challenge typical gender roles. While it subtly touches on themes of marginalization and power dynamics, the narrative does not explicitly center on a critique of traditional identities.

Secondary

Gender Swap: YesConfidence: High

The character Cutthroat Bill, originally established as male in Joe R. Lansdale's novel, is portrayed as female by Juliette Lewis in the film, which constitutes a clear gender swap.

LGBTQ: N/AConfidence: High

FemPower: N/R
