Unlike in the novel, Jasper is killed with a knife during the figth with people attacking the airfield. Not very gory, but sad and unpleasant anyway.

Theres a Donkey and horse, they have to quickly leave the farm and they never return, it doesnt show them ever again. Also multiple depictions of packs of dogs that don’t have people, seem friendly, but are technically left at the end of every scene you see them.

Lots of binocular and scope use by the main characters. Scenes show bad people scoping out the land but it isn’t shown if they’re aware or see anyone.

There is a scene with a gang of bad people on horses, many of them dressed like Native Americans, as well as on pinto horses. It is a very, “Cowboys and Indians scene”, and dont seem to have a motive as a whole group to unify to stalk, chase, and kill the main characters but die trying.

“Mormons” mentioned with cliches, and mennonites mentioned and shown (positively). When they get to grand central station, it seems to be a cult and they mention their faith in God.

No one attempts suicide in the movie.
Suicide is referenced in one line— Higg says if his plan failed he’d fly into the side of a mountain. This doesn’t happen.
