The Quick and the Dead is a 1995 Western revolving around a Quick Draw shooting contest that attracts a variety of competitors, some of whom have personal reasons for taking a shot at the reigning champion.On Dia de los Muertos, a mysterious Lady (Sharon Stone) rides into the small town of Redemption, Arizona. Redemption languishes under the iron fist of its mayor, John Herod (Gene Hackman), an outlaw turned gangster, and his cadre of thugs.That night, the annual Quick Draw competition is open for sixteen brave competitors, who can order anything they wish on Herod's bill, so long that they remain in the contest, and the victor of the contest will win a massive sum of money. Of course, you have to survive long enough to win to get it, and Herod himself is a competitor, known for his ruthless skill with a gun. Then, of course, there are the other competitors: There's The Kid (Leonardo DiCaprio), Herod's son, the local gun and dry-goods salesman, who's no slouch with a gun, and aching to prove to his father he's just as good as him. There's "Ace" Hanlon (Lance Henriksen), "The Terror of Tucson," renowned both for his trick-shooting skill and long body count. There's Sgt. Cantrell (Keith David), a former Buffalo Solider turned Gentleman Adventurer, but is there more to him than meets the eye? There's Cort (Russell Crowe), an outlaw turned preacher who's not there by choice, a former protege-in-crime of Herod's, pulled from his mission and forced to compete for Herod's amusement. There's the brave local would-be fighters, such as Scars, a brutal outlaw with a talent for escaping jail, Foy, one of Herod's lieutenants who has it in for Cort, and Dred, a local business man who has an unhealthy obsession with Horace the barkeep's daughter Katie. And then there's the Lady herself, who seems to have her own history both with the town and with John Herod...The film is directed by Sam Raimi, and executive produced by his long-time collaborator Robert Tapert. Sharon Stone is also a co-producer.Not to be confused with a completely different Western starring Sam Elliott, based on a story by Louis L'Amour.

Miles Gloriosus
 The Quick and the Dead / int_113472aa
comment
Miles Gloriosus: Ace Hanlon is a moderately skilled gunslinger who specialises in trick shots. Despite his constant boasting, he doesn't run from a fight. However this is due to his fatal mistake of thinking he won't encounter a gunfighter who is quicker on the draw than him. Nor does he expect to run into the man who really killed the Terrence brothers, for which Ace has been taking credit. He quickly gets Feet of Clay when confronted by a true ace. Another example is Virgil Sparks, the self-proclaimed "Pride of Texas", who doesn't get past the first round of the tournament. Although he's not called on it, it's implied that the resume The Kid gives while trying to chat up The Lady is somewhat exaggerated. Certainly his father never treats him like the great outlaw he claims to be.

comment
Dirty Coward: Eugene Dred. Though he's a capable gunfighter, his bravado falters when he is challenged to pick on someone his own size. He is reluctant to take on the Kid, only joining the competition when Kid calls him "chicken." After being wounded by Lady, he devolves into an inelegant, blubbering mess who begs for his life. After Lady decides he's Not Worth Killing, he immediately attempts to shoot her in the back.

Rasputinian Death: Spotted Horse, who constantly brags that he "cannot be killed by a bullet," is proved right: he gets shot clean through the heart, gets back up, fires off several shots while his opponent reloads, takes a second shot to the forehead, then starts to get back up again before finally dying for real.

Bullet Dancing: Herod briefly makes 'Ace' Hanlon do this before killing him, as a means of showing his contempt for the Miles Gloriosus. A deleted scene revealed that the shoeshine boy lost his sight this way. Herod's men drunkenly shot at him to make him dance and he was blinded by a muzzle flash.

Revolver Cylinder Spin: When Herod takes Cort to The Kid's gun shop to get him a gun (forcing him to be an unwilling participant in the quick draw competition), he is shown several guns. The cylinders on a couple of them get a good spin while he's trying them out. During the close-up sequence of The Kid loading his revolver while the clock ticks down to high noon, after he loads the last chamber and closes the port he gives the cylinder a spin.

"Well Done, Son" Guy: The Kid to Herod, because Herod suspects him of being the bastard son of his unfaithful wife. Cort also reveals that Herod recruited him as a kid and he wanted to be just like him, until Herod forced him to cross a Moral Event Horizon by killing a priest who nursed them back to health. To ensure he did so, Herod put a gun to Cort's head and started to count down.

Reluctant Warrior: Cort is forced to participate in the contest. The Lady plays with this, in that she's not reluctant to fight but does clearly display some qualms about killing (at least, for anyone who isn't Herod); she initially merely wounds her targets unless put in a position where she has no choice.

comment
Asskicking Leads to Leadership: Herod is greased lightning on the draw and nigh unbeatable in a straight up gunfight. For this reason, he owns the town of Redemption and nobody brave enough to challenge him directly ever survives. The only one who comes close to his speed and skill is the Kid. To be beaten, he has to be blindsided and killed by someone who he thought was already dead.

Papa Wolf: Averted; after Eugene Dred rapes his daughter, the saloon keeper reaches for Dred's gunbelt which is slung over his shoulder, a pistol in tempting reach. Dred waits... but the man just turns and staggers off. Fortunately, Lady is a more than willing Mama Bear. According to Bruce Campbell, Pat Hingle kicked up about this, so a scene was filmed where during the Kid's wedding, Campbell had a cameo as a man who asks Katie to "dance the devil's dance", prompting Horace to kick him out of the bar. The entire sequence was cut.

Sorting Algorithm of Mortality: Characters with the least amount of screentime in the introductory scene die the earliest, and behaving like a scumbag (as Eugene does shortly before his duel with Lady, or Ratsy does before Cort's with Herod) is a sure way to shorten your life expectancy. All of the surviving characters with dialogue at the end are white.

 The Quick and the Dead / int_25afd4a3

Good Guns, Bad Guns: An aesthetic version, since being an Old West period piece, everyone uses very similar models of gun. The Lady and the Kid (both "good") use nickel-plated Single Action Army revolvers with white grips, giving them Light Is Good vibes. Herod, the Big Bad, also wields a pair of SAAs. His have darker metal with custom gold dragon grips, classic "bad" gun traits, and he also dual wields them at several points, a typically "bad" method.

Apathetic Citizens: When they're not throwing rocks at a priest, they're pretending not to notice when a young girl gets raped. In fairness, they're all under the heel of a local warlord who wouldn't hesitate to gun a single one of them down. They do hire a gunfighter to challenge Herod in the contest, but unfortunately Herod is quicker on the draw than their man is.

Not Just a Tournament
 The Quick and the Dead / int_275847f0
comment
Not Just a Tournament: The gunfighting tournament is primarily a way for Herod to eliminate any threats to himself and intimidate any of the locals who might try to oppose him. He knows that there is an assassin gunning for him and that the Kid is itching to take him on. The tournament is a trap for them to face him in the open where he can gun them down in a duel. It is implied that if anyone proves too much of a threat, his Mooks will gun that person down.

Hidden Depths
 The Quick and the Dead / int_2dc0d2bf
comment
Hidden Depths: Herod may be a reprehensible human being and an avowed Blood Knight, but he hates liars (his prolonged humiliation of Ace Hanlon) and cheaters (his threat of death upon anyone who tries to cheat the competition, even his own mook Ratsy). The Kid is the only kill Herod expresses real regret for, and despite giving a half-hearted confession that he wasn't certain if he actually was The Kid's father, his expression and quiet departure from the street after the fight (dropping his hat AND handgun AND wound dressing on the ground, no less) indicates that he did see him that way. Horace seems like little more than the local barkeep and a minor henchman, but there are several moments that show how beaten down he is, and how he wishes he could be brave enough to stand up for himself, his daughter, and his town. He quietly thanks Lady after she kills Dred, for doing what he couldn’t.

Even Evil Has Standards: Herod changes the rules after the second round to make each contest a Duel to the Death, but he abides by the rule himself once it's declared. It doesn't stop him from telling his men to kill Cort if he's the winner of their duel. He also deals out harsh punishment to liars and cheaters, his own men included. The only person Herod seems to have any hesitancy at all about shooting is the Kid. He repeatedly warns him to back out of the contest with no strings attached, and when the two finally duel, Herod kills him quickly and efficiently, without humiliating him like he does to his other opponents.

Boring, but Practical: After seeing several cool guns, Cort admits he doesn't have any money, so Herod buys him the cheapest gun in the shop, a worn-down Colt 1851 Navy cartridge conversion. As Cort is leaving, the Kid says, "That gun shoots straight. I wouldn't sell it if it didn't." And true to his word, the gun never fails Cort.

Kill Tally: "Scars", one of the criminals in the competition, is called such because he makes a cut in his arm for every man he kills. His Establishing Character Moment has him enter the bar, kick out some random guy for no apparent reason, shoot him dead as he tries to run away, and make one more cut before entering the bar again, all while chugging down a large glass of beer. Likewise with 'Ace' Hanlon who invites the Lady to a game of poker, then shows her how he's added an ace to his personal pack of cards every time he's killed someone.

Ace Hanlon is a moderately skilled gunslinger who specialises in trick shots. Despite his constant boasting, he doesn't run from a fight. However this is due to his fatal mistake of thinking he won't encounter a gunfighter who is quicker on the draw than him. Nor does he expect to run into the man who really killed the Terrence brothers, for which Ace has been taking credit. He quickly gets Feet of Clay when confronted by a true ace.

Overzealous Underling: When the Quick Draw tournament is down to Herod and Cort, the night before the final match, Herod has his follower Ratsy work Cort over, since Cort attempted to attack Herod earlier in the day. During the course of this, Ratsy breaks Cort's right hand (both because of his orders and as payback for Cort breaking his nose twice). Herod, who claims that he's wanted to have a proper gunfight with Cort even back when the two were bandits together, so they can find out who really is the Fastest Gun in the West, is pissed when he sees what Ratsy did.

Give Me a Sword: Cort shouts desperately for a second bullet after his first shot fails to kill Spotted Horse. The Blind Boy has to find the right caliber by feel from a boxful of ammo before tossing it to him.

Pretty Little Head Shots: MASSIVELY averted when Cantrell is shot in the head, and in a wonderful display of that gory Sam Raimi absurdity, has a hole in his head large enough that his opponent can be clearly seen through it. Herod's demise is something of a variation of the trope played straight.

Lost Him in a Card Game: When the Lady wakes up in the Kid's shop with no memory of how she got there, the Kid claims he won her in a game of poker. As the last thing she remembers is him puking and passing out behind the saloon, she is pretty sure he is lying.

A MacGuffin Full of Money
 The Quick and the Dead / int_4c583974
comment
A MacGuffin Full of Money: The big prize of the Quick Draw championship (that is held annually, no less) is $123,000. In 2017 dollars, this would equate to about $3 million— a ridiculous amount for a tiny non-mining town, no matter how rampant the corruption there is. Bonus points for storing this fortune in a single, prominent, unlocked chest, positioned on the table in the town's dirty, lowbrow saloon. (On that note, gun prices are also inflated: the Kid only shows his client a few rare and heavily customized pistols that cost up to $120... while a brand new factory revolver of the kind he himself uses would cost only three times as much as the "ridiculously" priced beat-up gun he offers Cort— just $15.) Justified in that Herod was a major outlaw and the money most likely is his accumulated loot. When announcing the prize, the saloon keeper says it's courtesy of Mr. Herod and Wells Fargo Bank, implying that at least some of it is proceeds of a robbery. The whole point of the competition seems to be that Herod counts on winning every year, and so is willing to put both his life and his fortune on the line. And it's implied he wins every year, so has never paid out the winnings. As for The Kid's gun store prices, perhaps he simply has to charge ridiculously high due to his father's taxes. Earlier in the movie, it is stated Herod takes 50 cents from every dollar the town earns.

 The Quick and the Dead / int_4cbc7f95
comment
Blasting It Out of Their Hands: Subverted, in that it's done as a Kick the Dog instead of a non-lethal means of ending the duel. "Ace" Hanlon boasts that he can kill a man with either hand, and did so while killing the notorious Terrence Brothers. Unfortunately Herod, the man he's about to duel, was the one who actually killed them, so he shows his contempt by shooting Hanlon in his gun hand, then inviting him to draw with the other hand, which promptly gets a bullet hole through it as well.

Herod is dead-set on convincing Cort that his mission to make up for his past sins is pointless because they're cut from the same cloth, and he's always going to be a killer. Inverted with The Kid, who Herod is also dead-set on convincing that they're nothing alike, possibly because he's loathe to acknowledge that he's The Kid's father.

I Am Not Left-Handed: A variation occurs when Ace Hanlon claims to have two good shooting hands. In his match against Herod, first it turns out that at least some (probably all) of his war stories were fake, and Herod proceeds to shoot Ace in his right hand. Herod offers to take the next shot with his left hand, because unlike Ace, Herod really can aim well with both hands. Naturally, this story doesn't end well for Ace.

Even Cort (who has forsaken his past as a killer) can't help staring at them in interest, but as he's completely broke, he ends up with a $5 revolver, bought for him by Herod. It's all he needs. Before the first duel of the contest, between the Kid and Gutzon, there is about a minute of lovingly composed closeups while they each load their guns.

Arbitrary Gun Power: The bullets range from blowing a gory hole through a man's head large enough for a view of the other shooter, to a neat hole that lets a single ray of sunlight through.

Moment of Silence: Though it's not immediately after the death of the Kid, a full minute goes by without background music, dialogue, or cheering, before the duel between Cort and the Lady. The spectators normally cheer the winner of a gunfight, but even they are shocked at the sadistic way that Herod kills Ace. There's silence until Herod looks at them expectantly, whereupon they rush to applaud the victor.

comment
Reckless Gun Usage: Hanlon does a trick shot where he flips off his horse and fires underneath its belly, putting a bullet through the Ace of Spades held by a little girl. The Kid shows Cort a gun with no trigger guard, warning him, "Don't wear it while you're drunk, or you'll kill your feet." A gun with no trigger guard would be valuable in a quickdraw competition, but would be tremendously unsafe for daily carry.

"Scars", one of the criminals in the competition, is called such because he makes a cut in his arm for every man he kills. His Establishing Character Moment has him enter the bar, kick out some random guy for no apparent reason, shoot him dead as he tries to run away, and make one more cut before entering the bar again, all while chugging down a large glass of beer.

'Tis Only a Bullet in the Brain: Spotted Horse boasts that he "cannot be killed by a bullet" and points out his various bullet wounds, including one from a bullet that entered his head earlier that day. On being shot in the chest, he's able to stagger to his feet to try and kill Cort, who shoots him in the forehead this time; he briefly raises his gun arm in the air before he finally expires.

Spotted Horse stands up on a table in the saloon and shows off the many scars from gunshots he has taken over the years. He's able to back it up too, as Cort isn't able to kill him with the first shot.

Paper Tiger: Some of the contestants: Gutzen is the first to enter the contest, bragging that he's the Swedish champion, a title nobody takes very seriously. He's eliminated by the Kid in the first round. Virgil Sparks, "The Pride of Texas". He's defeated during a montage by Sgt. Cantrell. Ace Hanlon constantly boasts about being the Fastest Gun in the West. While he's a good trick shot, Herod sees right through him when he takes credit for one of his kills and publically humiliates him before killing him. Sgt. Cantrell is an enigmatic Gentleman Adventurer gunman hired by the townspeople to kill Herod. Unlike Ace, he does actually win a round, but is killed by Herod. Scars is a deranged escaped convict. He lasts longer than the above, but is taken out by the Kid with little to no difficulty.

Guns Do Not Work That Way
 The Quick and the Dead / int_95ff52c7
comment
Guns Do Not Work That Way: In the final shootout where Lady kills Herod, her shot puts a small, neat hole in him that allows the sunlight to shine through. In reality, handgun bullets from that era were slower and softer than bullets today, so it would have lacked the power or penetrating ability to go straight through him. In addition, if it had gone all the way through him, the hole would have only stayed open for a split-second before blood and internal organs closed it once more, and the exit wound would have been fist-sized or larger. He wouldn't have been in any condition to stand there contemplating his situation for several moments. Even more absurd is Lady's following headshot, which somehow causes Herod to do a full backflip in midair. This of course is impossible no matter where a bullet hits someone in any part of the body. Furthermore, Herod starts screaming in terror before the bullet hits him, as if he somehow knew it would be a fatal headshot before it made contact.

"Not So Different" Remark: Herod is dead-set on convincing Cort that his mission to make up for his past sins is pointless because they're cut from the same cloth, and he's always going to be a killer. Inverted with The Kid, who Herod is also dead-set on convincing that they're nothing alike, possibly because he's loathe to acknowledge that he's The Kid's father. Also when the Lady survives her first duel.

One-Man Army: Herod constantly sings Cort's praises on his abilities as a killer, to the point where he only gives him a single bullet per duel out of concern that he might just shoot his way out of town.

The Gunslinger: The entire movie centres around a quick draw competition, so the entire cast is filled with gunslingers. While most are Quick Draws, Cort and Ace are also Trick Shots.

Wouldn't Hurt a Child
 The Quick and the Dead / int_a2b998a0
comment
Wouldn't Hurt a Child: Cort plays this straight when a mob of children gang up on him and start beating him with planks, but the Lady subverts this and sends them all running to their dad. Gutzon tells the Kid he will only wound him. The Kid replies, "You're a kind man," and obliges him by doing the same. Herod doesn't want to face The Kid in a gunfight to the death, and tries to get The Kid to withdraw, not because he's afraid he'll lose, but because he knows he'll win.

Blown Across the Room: Rather bizarrely applied in the final gunfight: Lady and Herod both draw and fire simultaneously. Lady is hit in the chest and staggers back, wincing in pain. Herod grins, appearing unfazed... until he looks down at the sunlight shining through a bloodless hole through his chest. Lady then shoots him in the eye, sending him cartwheeling backwards.

comment
Due to the Dead: Averted big time; contestants are robbed the moment they're confirmed dead. The Lady breaks down in tears when she can't find her father's grave. Doc Wallace tells her that Herod's men smashed the gravestone and burnt the body. The Kid is a noticeable exception; Lady closes his eyes after he Dies Wide Open, and his body is gently carried off by the townspeople, unmolested. When Cort shoots Lady, Doc Wallace angrily warns "the vultures" off from stripping the body. It's actually to prevent anyone from noticing she's Not Quite Dead.

Chekhov's Skill: Of a sort. The Kid has an extended Kirk Summation at one point that begins with, "A gunfight is in the head. Not the hands. The only reason that he's invincible is because you all think he is." Lady takes this advice to heart, deciding not to face Herod on his terms, but only after destroying his town, appearing to come back from the dead, and revealing that Herod created his own hero. As they face off, a clearly shaken Herod claims that they both know she isn't fast enough to beat him, and she answers, "Today, I am.")

Too Dumb to Live: Eugene Dred. After losing a gunfight to the Lady culminating in her sparing his life, he staggers back into the Saloon to ambush her. He fires, narrowly misses, and is gunned down in self defence. To a lesser degree, "Ace" Hanlon. He's a trick shooter with outlandish claims of being the fastest gunman ever, but he doesn't quit while he's ahead. He ends up getting challenged and killed by the real deal in the first round of the tournament.

Berserk Button: Dog Kelly is so named because of an incident in his Backstory where he was forced to eat his beloved dog or face starvation. Any mention of his nickname or the incident in question is a good way to seriously piss him off, as evidenced in the deleted scene when The Lady teases him about it. The Lady has two: The first one is Herod, who she has sworn vengeance against for forcing her to try to Shoot the Rope to keep her father from being hanged when she was just a little girl, resulting in her shooting her father in the head instead. The Lady also goes for blood after her second opponent, Eugene Dred, rapes Katie, the young girl who she had befriended and who looked up to her. Cort tries to attack Herod after he's forced to shoot Lady. Subverted - it's actually a ploy to distract his men from her Not Quite Dead body. Herod gets outright pissed when he discovers that Ratsy smashed Cort's gun hand in revenge for having his nose broken twice by Cort, denying Herod the satisfaction of ever knowing whether or not he's faster on the draw than Cort. He gives Ratsy twenty seconds to leave town just for the satisfaction of blowing him away as he's running.

Improbable Aiming Skills: Cort, Herod, The Kid, The Lady, and a few others. In reality, quickdraw showdowns only work when the target is standing in the same place every time: there's no time to aim, and quickdraw training is specifically for hitting the same target in the same place as quickly as possible. If the target is in a different place, a quickdraw specialist will be at a severe disadvantage.

Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?

comment
Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?: Justified; Lady has never killed anyone before, and has been afraid of Herod since childhood. This makes her balk at shooting him on several occasions. It turns out she has killed someone— her own father, further explaining her reluctance. Most of the time when Herod is out and about, he's guarded by his posse of rifle-wielding thugs - just shooting him is a quick way to get filled full of lead. The only 'legal' way is to challenge him to a duel.

Shoot the Rope: Done twice. Lady does it to save Cort when Herod's men try to hang him in the saloon. Later, in a flashback, Herod is about to hang Lady's father, but says he'll let him go if Lady (a little girl at the time) can shoot the rope. She hits her father instead. This makes it an inverted Chekhov's Skill.

The Kid is the only kill Herod expresses real regret for, and despite giving a half-hearted confession that he wasn't certain if he actually was The Kid's father, his expression and quiet departure from the street after the fight (dropping his hat AND handgun AND wound dressing on the ground, no less) indicates that he did see him that way.

Cutting the Knot: All of the gunfights depend on the duelists drawing the split second the town clock tower strikes twelve. As part of their plan to get one over on Herod, Lady arranges for the clock tower to be blown up with gunpowder during Herod's duel with Cort. During the final duel between Lady and Herod, they have to draw on pure speed and instinct alone.

Gun Twirling
 The Quick and the Dead / int_ce4f133d
comment
Gun Twirling: In a rather nice touch, the main actors were all taught to do it themselves— which was probably easier to film, considering the massive amount of gunfighting shown. This is most noticeable when Cort is sampling a gun in the Kid's shop; he goes through a complicated twirling, cocking and uncocking routine with the camera zoomed close on his hands as most movies would do with a stuntman doing the maneuvers, but then the camera follows the gun up to Russell Crowe's face as he cocks it next to his ear, showing that the actor had done the technique. Herod's minions do this with rifles quite a lot, in a way that should really eject an unused bullet every time.

Start of Darkness: Herod's father, although a respectable authority figure, was a bit of a nutcase.

It got to the stage where he played a sick game of Russian Roulette with Herod and his mother, killing himself.

 The Quick and the Dead / int_e663d3ef
comment
Only a Flesh Wound: Gutzon, the Swedish gunfighter, announces before his duel with the Kid that he does not wish to kill a child, and will only shoot to wound. The Kid, who's faster on the draw, repays him in kind; Gutzon catches a bullet in the leg and arm, but limps away alive, and is therefore one of only a few entrants to lose a duel and survive (largely because Herod begins enforcing Duel to the Death as a rule in the second round). Cort's first opponent is shot in the arm and lives, and so does Lady's. Many of the first round battles pass by in a montage, leaving the losers' fates unclear.

Feet-First Introduction
 The Quick and the Dead / int_e73f6217
comment
Feet-First Introduction: A Slow Motion shot of Herod's boots walking across the floorboards, spurs jingling. This is used again in the flashback scenes. Then when Lady comes back from the dead, the jingly-spurs introduction is used for her. The spurs introduction is also used for Ace as a Bait-and-Switch to make him look like a major player.

O.O.C. Is Serious Business: When Lady challenges Herod, he just mutters at her to go away. "I've already been challenged." The Kid then struts out to duel Herod, showing why he's not happy. Herod quickly regains his Smug Snake evilness, however.

Teach Him Anger: Herod has his mooks burn down the Mission where Cort works, so he'll be angry enough to want to kill him. Cort refuses to play along. Herod puts him in the competition anyway, confident that Cort's nature will reassert itself when his life is in danger. Herod's constant Kick the Dog moments are equally effective in the long run.

Simple, yet Awesome: Herod doesn't organize the annual duel tournament for fun (a statement contradicted by his immense pleasure watching opponents die), but even he appreciates that the town has gone to hell since he took over, and its people will kill you for your bootlaces. He participates so he can face his enemies one-on-one, without fear of them shooting him in the back when he's vulnerable or off-guard.

Mercy Lead: Played With. When Herod discovers what Ratsy did to Cort's hand, Herod gives him twenty seconds to get out of town. Although the mook wastes five seconds whining, he takes off at full speed when it's clear Herod's not letting it go. Herod waits the full amount of time, but then calmly takes the rifle from one of his bodyguards and shoots the still-rapidly-fleeing figure dead, showing that there was no way he could have gotten away in the time given.

Right in Front of Me: When Lady first arrives in town, she goes to the saloon to look for a place to stay. Since she's standing right behind the bartender while he's fetching things from a high shelf, he makes the mistake of thinking that she wants to work at the local brothel. Unlike others in this film whose words put them into a bad situation, he gets knocked down, but is otherwise not harmed.

Artistic License – Economics: The gun shop scene, where Herod takes Cort to get a gun from The Kid, clearly shows that the writers just tried to come up with prices that would make sense to moviegoers and didn't do any research. The Kid says a Colt .45 is worth $120. That would be about $3,000 in 2017 and way beyond the means of most if not all the people who would come to him looking to buy a gun. The beat-up pistol that he says is worth five dollars is about $130 in today's money, and actually would be about half of what someone could expect to pay for a brand new revolver back in 1881.

Pet the Dog: Though the Lady is initially rude to Katie, she becomes protective of her the more she sees Dred preying on her, showing that she's a decent person. The Kid assures Cort that the junk gun he sold him still shoots straight, becoming one of the few people to show him any sympathy. Herod several times offers Kid (who may or may not be his son) a chance to back out of the contest with no strings attached, and when they do duel, Herod doesn't humiliate him or draw out his death like he did with the other contestants.

Shown Their Work
 The Quick and the Dead / int_ffad4e9f
comment
Shown Their Work: Before Gutzon and The Kid fight, there's an extended sequence that shows them each loading their weapons. Much to vintage gun enthusiasts' surprise, Raimi has Gutzon sealing the chambers of his pistol with beeswax, something that was done as a matter of course on that model (1861 LeMat cap-and-ball) to prevent the possibility of a chain fire (one charge going off and igniting the others). The overall selection of firearms is also quite interesting and in some sense realistic. Even though almost everything in the film is inflated and fairy-tale-Wild-West, many of the shooters actually use revolvers that were cheaply converted from cap to cartridge— a stark reality of the (supposed) timeframe. These earlier cap revolvers had to be loaded chamber by chamber with powder, then wad, then bullet, then pressed with a rod, then sealed with wax, then primed with little percussion caps— and they were the go-to weapons... until brass cartridge revolvers made them obsolete almost overnight. So the Kid in the film uses an expensive (about $15 before engraving) Colt SAA cartridge revolver that he loads with ammo familiar to us, but many others use former cap "FrankenGuns" that were converted to load familiar brass cartridges by the manufacturer or even local tinkerers. In the case of Cort's gun, you can plainly see the empty space where a crudely removed loading lever once was (this lever was used to press the round bullet into the chamber and compress the powder and wad inside). Audiences at the time scoffed a bit at Sgt. Cantrell because he was a black gunslinger, but the filmmakers clearly showed their work when creating the character; he's established to be a former Buffalo Soldier, an all-black cavalry founded after the Civil War. Also, as many as a quarter of actual gunslingers on the frontier were black, since they encountered less racism than in the Deep South, and almost always were paid equal wages to white people even if they did.
