- Yelling and arguing is frequent throughout the film.
- A very young girl is beaten repeatedly with a wire hanger and a can of cleanser. This is a rather long scene, very abusive and many may find it disturbing or highly unsettling. Despite this, it has become one of the iconic scenes associated with the film.
- A very young girl is verbally abused by her mother, who afterwards takes scissors to the girl's hair, cutting much of it off while yelling at her.
