* ''Film/NoNameOnTheBullet'': John Gant (Murphy) is a gun for hire who always provokes his targets into shooting first, and never gives away who he's gunning for. The town goes nuts and tears itself apart trying to figure out who hired him and who he's coming for, while he sits back and watches with a CatSmile. Written by [[Franchise/StarTrek Gene L. Coon]] and directed by [[Film/CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon Jack Arnold,]] frequently considered the best of Murphy's westerns. Available on DVD in the US and most other places.

* MartialPacifist: He could put most men on their asses without breaking a sweat but disliked violence and never used it unless he had to, preferring instead to let his [[DeathGlare intense stare]] and [[TranquilFury controlled anger]] to get them to back down.



* NiceGuy: By all accounts, he was a kind-hearted, humble, extremely polite and all-around decent guy who treated everyone as an equal, never used violence unless he had to, was extremely generous to his friends and family, loved kids and animals, couldn't stand to see anyone mistreated or disrespected and took his status as a role model very seriously. Think Mr Rogers with devastating combat skills and you've got Audie Murphy.

* SmokingIsCool: Defied. He was a lifelong non-smoker, a remarkable feat given the time he was born and grew up in, and refused to appear in ads for cigarettes, not wanting to send a bad message to kids.
