Cinema
Distributor:
Paramount Pictures UK
sex
Scenes include implied penetration, thrusting, and oral sex. There are also sequences featuring implied insertion of objects into a man's anus; BDSM activity including whipping, cages and the infliction of pain and humiliation; and a sequence of urolagnia.
drugs
There are frequent scenes of drug misuse, including pill taking and cocaine snorting. Although some characters suffer due to excessive drug misuse, many sequences conflate sex, nudity and drugs. There are also frequent scenes of drinking alcohol and smoking.
nudity
Frequent full frontal male and female nudity occurs, often in sexualised contexts.
flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
additional issues
There is infrequent very strong language ('c**t') and use of strong language ('f**k', 'motherf**ker', 'c**ksucker') throughout. Scenes of violence include use of guns and bladed weapons, resulting in bloody injuries. Brief moments of sexual assault include a woman putting her hand down a man's trousers, kissing another, and pushing another into her crotch. A man repeatedly touches a young woman's bottom. There are instances of racism and discrimination, including homophobia, sexism, class prejudice and xenophobia, although such behaviour is not condoned and reflects the era being depicted. There are references to suicide, including blood and injury detail in the aftermath of suicides. In one sequence, a woman is bitten by a snake and requires the poison to be extracted, while in another a man appears to eat a live rat, although no animals appear to have been harmed in reality. There are also sequences of threat, and instances of crude humour including vomiting, urination and defecation jokes.
