BLITHE SPIRIT is a comedy in which the spirit of a writer's deceased wife is inadvertently summoned during a séance, creating difficulties in his second marriage.

sex
Comic references are made to erectile dysfunction, including a man telling his friend "it's like playing billiards with a rope." An inebriated woman in her undergarments jumps on her husband in bed, but they are interrupted. Scenes of innuendo refer to a man failing to "reach climax" and to a woman having a "firm grip". There is also use of terms such as "hussy" and "harlot".
drugs
A man is offered amphetamines to treat his erectile dysfunction, but they are then used to spike his wife's drink, resulting in erratic behaviour.
additional issues
Comic violence includes a scene in which a woman's ghost attacks a cook using her kitchen knives, however there is no injury detail. A woman drives off a cliff after her brakes are tampered with. A man punches his son-in-law on the nose and woman attempts to push a cabinet from a roof to hurt her husband, causing him to have a cut on his arm. After a man is sectioned, a woman tells him he's in the "loony bin". There are scenes of comic supernatural threat when a ghost is summoned following a séance. The film features mild bad language ('bloody', 'bugger', 'ass') as well as uses of 'damn', 'Jesus', 'Christ' and 'God'.
