suicide and self-harm
In one scene, towards the end of the film, the older actor takes his own life by walking into the sea and drowning. However, his corpse is never shown, and his death is implied or indicated by the sea washing over the clothes he left on a beach and by a newspaper headline stating that his body was found.
additional issues
The older actor is an alcoholic. However, this is negatively presented, with the man behaving embarrassingly or aggressively when under the influence of alcohol. He is also arrested for drunk driving and ultimately takes his own life after failing to cope with his alcoholism, declining career, and other personal and relationship issues. There are also scenes in which other adults drink alcohol and smoke, with the latter reflecting the time period in which the film was made.
