Sex & Nudity

  • In a scene in a bathtub, there is female full frontal nudity including pubic hair. The scene includes a motorized plastic toy (underwater diver) swimming between the woman's legs up against her genitals (no genitals are seen). She appears to mildly enjoy contact with the toy. In another scene, a man is seen watching a sex tape of a woman masturbating alone; nudity includes bare breasts and partial view of hip/buttock.
  • In one scene, as a woman changes clothing, she is shown completely naked from behind. As she partially turns, her breast is visible. In several other scenes, she is shown topless.
  • Naked man and woman have intercourse on top of a bed. They change sexual positions. Thrusting and panting is shown. Explicit moaning. This is a very long scene. Nudity includes bare chest, male full rear nudity and bare breasts, though the majority of the shots are from the shoulders up.
  • In the back of a pharmacy, a man is seen on top of woman having intercourse, both partly undressed. Nudity includes only bare-chested male.

Violence & Gore

  • A man forces his way into a woman's apartment when she tries to close the door on him. During the ensuing struggle he knocks her out with a head-butt when she screams.
  • A woman throws a glass at a man's face, cutting him. He grabs her and subdues her physically. Although she expresses a suspicion that he will rape her, he never does so.
  • A man holds a woman at gunpoint, and later ties her to a bed, but does not physically harm her.
  • A man is beaten in a street fight, he is shown cut and slightly bloody. At one point he is knocked out.

Profanity

  • A handful of F words as well as a scattering of other profanity throughout the movie.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • The lead female character is a recovering drug addict. There are several scenes where this is discussed.
  • There is movie cast party where drinking is occurring. Several characters are shown as being drunk.
  • The male character goes to buy drugs from a drug dealer.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The initial attack scene can be disturbing to some, since we do not yet know the attacker's true intentions - particularly when he head-butts her to knock her out.
