I think that the most important scene in stagecoach, was near the end, when The Kid fought the plumber boys. It showed the most insight into the characters. The sheriff realized that he was actually a good person, and let him go even though he knew he was going to fight the plumber boys. Then he let him go again, in front of the ladies house. The Kid had a chance ti run away after he killed the PB, but he decided to keep his promise. I think that this really shows that, even though he's an outlaw, he cares about what is right and what isn't.
When the Kid was fighting with the Plumber Boys, the lighting is dark, to make the scene seem gloomier. Also, they used a wide lens to make The Kid seem bigger than the PB. This effect is alot like the one used in 7 samurai. They use dark lighting to make the scene seem alot more helpless. Also, in Seven Samurai, they have the samurai standing over the farmers and the bandits, to make them seem alot more powerful and all knowing.
Overall i don't like westerns. They are sexist predictable and the action sucks. I'll stick to my kung-fu action movies.
