Certification
Sex & Nudity
-
- Couples are shown having sex in different positions. There's movement that suggests what they're doing, and, in one instance, a woman's breasts are plainly visible in the lead-up to sex (but scene cuts prior to the sex). A shower scene shows two people from behind (and, briefly, side-flash of the man's genitals). Fairly graphic discussions of sex.
- A man and a woman kiss on a couch and lie down, clothed, as the scene ends and sex is implied. In a flashback, a woman is shown watching from the street as her husband comes out of a bar and kisses a college-aged woman in the street. A man kisses an old girlfriend on the cheek and on the forehead. A man refuses to have sex with his wife.
Violence & Gore
-
- A woman slashes a man's throat open with a box cutter. Tons of blood gushes out of the wound and pours all over the woman. The man suffocates on his blood and eventually dies. When the scene is over, the man and the woman are entirely soaked in tons of blood.
- Scenes of domestic violence. Not graphic but emotionally intense.
- A husband comes home after work to find his wife is missing, and there are signs of a struggle with a smashed, upturned glass coffee table and an overturned ottoman; two police detectives arrive and badger the husband about his wife's friends, blood type and daily life; a community manhunt begins for the wife and a Nancy Grace-like TV reporter repeatedly condemns the husband as guilty of murder while his sister says that whoever killed her will likely bring her back.
- A woman says that she is much happier now that she is dead and she wears gauze wrapped around one elbow spotted with blood; flashbacks show her inserting an IV needle into her inner elbow and spreading blood on her own kitchen floor and some walls, then cleaning it up, but not thoroughly; she says that she will kill herself and blame her husband so he goes to prison and we see in her imagining herself floating in a lake with her eyes and mouth open, dead.
- A husband and his wife suffer layoffs from their NYC jobs and move to Missouri, where the man's mother has Stage 4 cancer; when a police officer asks the man about his mother, he says, "She's dead." A man finds his father in a police station talking to himself, cursing and scratching his arms; he takes his dad back to a nursing home.
