violence

There is moderate violence including impactful, but undetailed, punches and kicks. In one scene, a boy is set upon by older children who beat him and steal his money. Two young boys are disciplined by their mother who strikes them with a belt in undetailed fashion.

discrimination

Unsympathetic characters demonstrate discriminatory attitudes and behaviour of a racist and homophobic nature. Racist terms include 'darkie' and 'kike', and there are other generally disparaging comments made about Jews. Homophobic terms include 'faggot', 'poofter', 'homo', 'queer' and 'buggerer'. Discriminatory behaviour is challenged and the work does not endorse such behaviour. There are also outdated uses of 'coloured' and 'negro' in references to African Americans, which reflect the historical period covered by the story - the 1940s to the 1970s - and are not always overtly racist in their intent.

additional issues: There is mild bad language ('son of a bitch', 'screw', 'arse', 'shit', 'bastard', 'crap', 'damn', 'hell', 'Jesus'). There are mild sex references in a post-coital scene as a man talks to a woman about their "hip thrusts". There are scenes of smoking which reflect the historical period in which the film is set.
