| nudity |
In many scenes throughout the film sex is implied but never shown.
Women are dressed scantily throughout the film. A man has a mistress whom he visits; they role play a bit. When he leaves her she says she'll be waiting with her legs open.
Scenes with very sexy and suggestive dance numbers (both in choreography and lyrics) starring one or many women are sprinkled throughout the film.
In a flashback, a group of young boys pay a woman who proceeds to grab her cleavage and perform a suggestive dance number about "love."
A man's wife performs a strip tease/dance number. Many men grab at her as she sings about "taking it off;" she removes her bra at the end (with her back to the camera). |
| violence |
-Two priests chase several boys, and one is caught and dragged to a church office where he is struck repeatedly on the back with a cane (we do not see the effect, but we hear the boy moan and we hear the thwacks).
-A wife confronts her husband about his infidelity and they argue. A man yells at a woman and makes her leave a restaurant. A man says, "You kill your script." A man asks, "Am I dying?" A man complains of not being able to breathe or think in several scenes. A woman talks abut the "death of religion." References are made to filth and debauchery.
-A man and a woman in a car are chased by a car and two motorcycles.
-We hear that a woman attempted suicide (we see her in bed after being treated by a doctor).
-In many scenes a man seems distraught from the pressure to succeed. A man imagines that his deceased mother is sitting next to him in a car and they talk. A doctor examines a man and determines that he is exhausted from stress. |
