| violence |
When the film shows drugs being injected, sometimes a character's butt is seen to have several bruises already. |
| profanity |
The F-word is used 33 times, and the S-word is used eight times. There is extended dialog about drawings of penises using the C-word. 'Queer' and 'fag' are used as insults. |
| alcohol |
People smoke almost constantly throughout the film. People drink not only at social gatherings but also in private meetings. Some of the drinking is to excess.
Recreational drugs and the effects of taking drugs are a significant subject in the film. Consequently, there are many, many scenes of characters using various kinds of drugs--prescription pills, speed and diet pills, marijuana, heroin, helium. There is a close-up of heroin being heated in a spoon, and there are many close-ups of injections (some of them quick enough to jolt the viewer). |
| frightening |
Intense sexual scenes and scenes of drug usage may be too much for some audiences. In particular, the close-ups of injections might be cringe-inducing. There is also a few lines about childhood sexual abuse that come as kind of a shock. |
