nudity | Hardly any. At one point, the camera briefly focuses on a cocktail waitress' behind. She is wearing tight-fitting pants. |
violence | Very little. A man briefly tries to choke another man in anger before stopping himself. |
profanity | One use of "damn." |
alcohol | Very frequent drinking and drunkeness. The two main characters are alcoholics. The movie focuses on their alcohol abuse. The main characters smoke frequently. |
frightening | The greenhouse scene in which an intoxicated Joe (Jack Lemmon) frantically seeks a bottle of alcohol may be disturbing to some. He violently rips out flowers and smashes flower pots in desperartion. The scenes in which Joe (Jack Lemmon) is suffering from withdrawal symptoms may be unsettling for some. |
