A couple pretend to be brother and sister but they aren't actually related and they don't do anything that would be considered incestuous while they're pretending to be siblings

Lots of shooting with guns - the guns never got any person, but they do blow out windows. There is a Black man on the train car who is shot near and is forced to duck behind the bar for safety (he is not an intended target, but he is not cared for either)

No, but the Black actors are written in the way Hollywood wrote in the 1940's, and are listed in the credits as "colored ____"

The only black characters in the movie are servants who speak in a stereotypical fashion. It doesn't help that they are also depicted being shot at by white guys in one scene.

A woman wants to separate from her husband because she thinks he would do better without her. She decides to pack her things and leave and he follows her to the train station trying to get her to stay. After that he flies down to meet her at her destination. She isn't scared or threatened by him (more irritated and mad) and nothing bad comes of it.
