Those Two Guys: Marshal Mitchell's two deputies are used for a little comic relief and usually, if not always, appear alongside each other. | |

The Sheriff | |
| Joe Kidd / int_33576bdb | comment |
The Sheriff: Bob Mitchell is the sheriff of Sinola County. He is ineffectual when Chama attacks the courthouse. In the final gunfight between Joe Kidd and Harlan's men, he does not intervene. | |

You Always Hear the Bullet | |
| Joe Kidd / int_635963c | comment |
You Always Hear the Bullet: Averted: when Kidd and a band of Mexican revolutionaries come under fire at extreme range by a sniper using a scoped buffalo rifle the sequence is shown in proper order (muzzle smoke - bullet sound - gunshot) reflecting the relative speeds (light, bullet, sound) involved. | |

Black-and-Gray Morality | |
| Joe Kidd / int_8767b1f3 | comment |
Black-and-Gray Morality: The big bad, Frank Harlan, has no redeeming quality, but Luis Chama is quite ruthless too (see The Revolution Will Not Be Civilized). He also threatens to kill Joe Kidd because Kidd shot down Naco, a member of his gang, in self-defence. Joe Kidd is not a perfect hero either: he does not hesitate to become allied with the big bad to track down Luis Chama. | |

The Revolution Will Not Be Civilized: Luis Chama, the leader of the peasant revolt, would rather let the innocent hostages be shot down one by one than surrender. | |

Anti-Hero | |
| Joe Kidd / int_beb9a361 | comment |
Anti-Hero: Joe Kidd is not a perfect hero. He gets involved in the events only because Chama wants to kill him. First, he becomes allied with Frank Harlan, who is a corrupt landowner and the main villain of the film. He is perfectly OK with the plan to kill Chama at first. It is only because Harlan's methods are too brutal that he finally confronts Harlan and his posse. | |

Felony Misdemeanor | |
| Joe Kidd / int_c59cfa2e | comment |
Felony Misdemeanor: In the beginning, Joe Kidd is in jail for poaching and disturbing the peace. But it is the The Wild West, and when Joe Kidd is brought to trial, even the judge is surprised that the sheriff puts people in jail for such minor offences. | |
