  • Brief rear and full frontal nudity when Finney's character gets out of a shower and again when he's getting dressed (all very brief glimpses)
  • Finney's character goes into a back room of a brothel with a prostitute; she pulls his pants down (no nudity), he lies on the bed and the scene ends there. Earlier, some other prostitutes are seen topless, displaying themselves suggestively.

Violence & Gore

  • A man is found murdered by a roadside, and one passerby takes coins off the body and wipes blood off them before pocketing them.
  • a woman gets trampled by a horse
  • a man is shot at the end (due to darkness, any blood is hard to make out)

Profanity

  • extremely mild language, (any strong profanity is hard to make out)

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Drugs: None
  • A child is seen tending bar while reading a comic book.
  • Several scenes set in bars and taverns.

  • A man is nearly run over by a car as he lies drunk in the street.
