Sex & Nudity

  • Several women are seen topless - and a couple fully nude (albeit in shadows) - at a popular prostitute pick-up location.
  • A woman looks at pornographic magazines on multiple occasions. The images are seen by the viewer.
  • A woman reluctantly performs oral sex on a man for money. At one point, the tip of his penis (possibly a prosthetic prop) is briefly seen in a mirror as it enters her mouth.
  • A woman is shown fully nude, front and rear, as she emerges from the shower. She is, however, out-of-focus.
  • A woman wakes up wearing nothing but a tank top. Her buttocks, a breast and her pubic region are visible as she walks through her bedroom.
  • A woman's breast is briefly visible as she dresses after a romantic encounter with her boyfriend.
  • A woman has violent sex with a man. She is on top in a bra but nothing is seen other than vigorous thrusting.
  • A man and woman kiss and we see him remove her panties from beneath her skirt. Nothing is seen.
  • A woman performs implied oral sex on a young man. We only see the back of her head bobbing as his friends look on.
  • A woman is obsessed with her breast size and her consideration of a breast implant procedure constitutes a major undercurrent of the film.
  • Women are shown in very revealing clothing and lingerie throughout the film.
  • Sexual acts are discussed in frank and candid terms throughout the film.

Violence & Gore

  • A woman is twice seen badly bruised, bloody and beaten following episodes with an abusive acquaintance. The nature of their relationship and her injuries are very disturbing.
  • A man forcefully squeezes a woman's hand in attempts to get her to leave a bar with him.

Profanity

  • Pervasive strong and highly sexual language is prevalent throughout the film.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Alcohol is consumed and cigarettes are smoked by many characters in the film.
  • One character is described as being a methadone addict.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • A mother frequently talks to her five-year-old son on the telephone and is clearly pained to live a double life as a prostitute.
  • A widow pathologically talks about her husband as though he was still alive.
  • The overall feel and theme of the film, which takes a socially realistic approach to prostitution, is very heavy-handed and portrayed with much gravity and pathos.
