| Legends of the Fall / int_107edaa4 | comment |
Comforting the Widow: Susannah attempts this after Isabel II's death, to no avail. Earlier on, Tristan's affair with her was a partial example - since she and Samuel had not married yet. | |

Retired Badass | |
| Legends of the Fall / int_112daba0 | comment |
Retired Badass: One Stab, as Tristan claims he had counted coup hundreds of times but by that point, One Stab just lives peacefully with the Colonel and his sons. Colonel Ludlow also clearly held something over from his military days when he fearlessly fires a double-barreled shotgun at the last O'Banion brother's group of three once he sees them distracted for a moment looking at One Stab calming a testy horse. Since those weapons only hold two shells, it's Alfred who has to kill the last one. | |

Plot-Triggering Death | |
| Legends of the Fall / int_13e1c444 | comment |
Plot-Triggering Death: There's obviously problems waiting to happen with Susannah being a fiancee to Samuel and his brothers also clearly being love-struck with her, but it's Samuel's death that causes things to get truly rocky among the entire Ludlow family. Isabel 2's death as well, as it causes all hell to break loose after a period of relative happiness and stability. | |

Parental Abandonment: The Ludlow brother's mother left because she wasn't comfortable with the living situations. She felt there were too many bears. While they never have a child together, Susannah in the middle of the film asks the deeply troubled Tristan that if they did, would he still be leaving the ranch. He quietly says yes. | |

Love Hurts: What do you expect when all three brothers fall in love with the same girl? Or when a girl's fiancé dies tragically in battle? Or when unrequited love takes place? Or when the man you love abandons you, never comes back for years at a time, and then writes you a letter telling you: "All that they had is dead. MARRY ANOTHER"? And when the woman couldn't be with the man they really love, they commit suicide? And when the man himself finds a Second Love, only for her to die tragically as well? | |

Call to Adventure: Samuel feels he has a duty to go off to fight in World War I, and Alfred seems to agree. Tristan joins them, likely because Samuel's there (this could have affected Alfred as well). Tristan watches Samuel die after being riddled with bullets, Alfred is discharged due to an injured leg, and Tristan is discharged before the war ends. | |

Artistic License – History | |
| Legends of the Fall / int_56515a39 | comment |
Artistic License – History: The First World War scenes are set in the Second Battle of Ypres which occurred in April 1915. A title card proclaims the date as February. (At that time the Canadian Division, depicted in the film, had not yet fought a major battle.) Weapons and equipment worn by the extras are more correct for 1916 or later - in February-April 1915, the Canadians in France were wearing Canadian pattern uniforms, leather Oliver pattern web gear, and using the Ross rifle. The film shows them in British uniforms and gear, with Lee Enfield weapons, which would all be correct if the film took place a year or so later. | |

The Smurfette Principle: Susannah appears to be one of the few female characters in the film which is predominantly male in casting. Not to mention that Susannah serves as a love interest to all three Ludlow brothers, in the same way that Smurfette is sought after by all male Smurfs. | |

The Three Faces of Eve: Interestingly enough Susannah fits into all three roles depending on what brother she's with. When she is with Samuel in her youth, she is the Child (an Ingenue; sweet and innocent). The brother she actually marries - Alfred - turns her into the Wife. In her passionate affair with Tristan, she becomes the Seductress. | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |

What Happened to the Mouse?: The Sheriff and the O'Banions arrive at the ranch looking for someone, who's picture resembles ranch hand Decker. Decker even leaves upon seeing them coming up, before they can get a good look at him. The Colonel and Albert make up a story about the man in the picture having been there years earlier, but left to go overseas. We never find out why the O'Banions are looking for Decker, nor why they show no interest when he's in the car when Isabel II is shot. It's entirely about having an excuse to introduce the villains and corrupt Sheriff. | |

Instant Death Bullet: In some places - Isabel II is killed by a bullet in somewhere between her breast and shoulder. No one noticed until her mother did and began screaming about it, and Isabel was already dead by that time. Ludlow and Alfred also have their targets fall with little fuss when the last O'Banion comes by for revenge, though Ludlow was using a double-barreled shotgun. Averted in other places - Samuel manages to seem conscious up until dying despite being riddled by machine-gun bullets for about ten seconds, and Roscoe Decker kills one of the O'Banions by shooting him in the right shoulder, watching him get up, and then shooting him in the gut. | |

| Legends of the Fall / int_ca3a6dbd | comment |
Informed Ability: We're told early on that Susannah has many ideas and political opinions about the topics of the day. We never hear her speak about any of them. She at least feigns no understanding of business and, as the wife of a congressman, doesn't give her first speech until years after he's been in office. | |

| Legends of the Fall / int_cb70651c | comment |
Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: One Stab seems to sense when Tristan puts Samuel's heart in an urn. He's also able to sense when Tristan returns to the ranch. Both could be magic or just coincidences and intuition. | |

Roaring Rampage of Revenge | |
| Legends of the Fall / int_ceec4df5 | comment |
Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Tristan goes on a vendetta rampage through the German lines after Samuel is killed. Later, he nearly beats to death the cop who murdered Isabel Two, and following his release from prison for this assault, kills ALL of those responsible for her death. Nor when Samuel was killed earlier. He'd actually already killed the Germans who killed Samuel during his rescue attempt. The ones he scalped were just another set of enemy soldiers. | |

| Legends of the Fall / int_d358ed20 | comment |
Unbalanced By Rival's Kid: Susannah practically collapses upon reading a letter telling her of the birth of Tristan and Isabel II's son. When she meets the boy several years later, she's almost in tears. | |

Hypocrite: Alfred blasts Tristan for his relationship with Susannah, as she's essentially Samuel's widow, when he himself fell in Love at First Sight with her and declared that love at Samuel's grave. | |

Star-Crossed Lovers: Tristan and Susannah oh so much. When they first meet, Susannah is engaged to (and seems to love) his younger brother. They have an affair after his death, but Tristan abandons her and marries Isabel II. Even after Isabel's death, he rejects Susannah and she ends up killing herself. Tristan lives out the rest of his days without marrying another. | |

Colonel Ludlow also clearly held something over from his military days when he fearlessly fires a double-barreled shotgun at the last O'Banion brother's group of three once he sees them distracted for a moment looking at One Stab calming a testy horse. Since those weapons only hold two shells, it's Alfred who has to kill the last one. | |

How the Mighty Have Fallen: Colonel Ludlow is laid down by a stroke, enfeebled and unable to speak (except with a cigar in his mouth), using a chalkboard around his neck to communicate. However, he recovers enough to stand up fearlessly to Irish mobsters and give them pause, making it a Defied Trope in the end. | |
