Sex & Nudity
There is some kissing and romantic intimacy between two adults, with brief partial nudity. Nothing is sexually explicit.
Violence & Gore
A car crash at the start shows the deaths of seven people, and medical procedures involve the removal of body parts. Connie is beaten by her abusive boyfriend, with the violence shown but not lingered on.
Profanity
Moderate swearing occurs in arguments and tense scenes, with occasional stronger words.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
There is only occasional drinking in background scenes and no drug use.
