SEX/NUDITY 6 - A man goes into a "peep-o-rama" where women in skimpy outfits (revealing bare buttocks, thighs, bare abdomens and cleavage) dance around poles while men watch, during an extended scene. Women wear short tops in a few scenes that reveal bare abdomens.
► A man and a woman kiss, and a man and a woman kiss and hug in a few scenes. People dance together -- male couples, female couples and mixed sex couples.

VIOLENCE/GORE 6 - We see a car accident: we hear a loud pop, the car skids, flips over, we see sparks flying, we hear metal rubbing the ground, and we hear people screaming as the car slides along the roadway and bursts into flames; we see people in the car with bloody wounds and a woman's body on the hood of the car having crashed through it. A dog snarls and bites a man's arm, and we hear a crunch.
► A woman wears a scarf wrapped around her head, a spot of blood appears on the scarf and then blood pours from that spot. A woman's head bleeds profusely and a pool of blood collects at her feet.
► A man with a bloody head wound lies on a road. We very briefly see what looks like it could be a decapitated body. We see several paintings of dead people and people being killed with bloody wounds and tortured faces. A man imagines seeing people with bloody wounds.
► A man puts his cigarette out on his arm (we see other scars on his arm, suggesting he has done this before, as well as cut scars that may be from suicide attempts). A woman has long scars on her wrists from a suicide attempt.
► A man puts a gun in his mouth (the scene ends there). A man slams another man against a wall and holds a gun to his stomach. A woman struggles and thrashes as people hold her and a man gives her an injection.
► A man slips and hits his head on narrow stairs (he wakes up and is OK). A man kicks a table and knocks it over spilling the things that are on it. We see from the viewpoint of a car tire, as the tire blows out, the car skids, flips over and bursts into flames.
► A woman talks about hating her life so much that she brought a back up razor to make sure that when she cut her wrists she did it right. A man says, "I saw the blood and watched him die" (referring to his father). A man tells a man that he killed his parents. A man talks about another man dreaming that his son was burning and calling for help. A man talks about having to put his dog to sleep.
