humorous sexual puns and innuendo

a man in live action is shown being choked by another man by having his necktie drawn into a machine, he is then shot twice in the back

Very Mild

The main character is said to be an alcoholic; the main character goes to a bar on several occasions; several scenes depict drinking; a cartoon baby is seen with a cigar hanging out of his mouth; children offer the main character cigarettes.

Given that this movie is a spoof of film noir detective films, it is no surprise that it is loaded with smoking images. Several stand out, however. The image of Baby Herman puffing on a stogie is the most disturbing. Equally sad is the scene where kids are smoking Lucky Strikes on the back of the trolley, even giving the down-and-out lead character several cigarettes. Betty Boop can also be seen hawking Camel cigarettes in one scene. There are also ads visible for Lucky Strike in the secret back room of the bar. Using a standardized scoring system, this film received a smoking rating of 0 Butts (on a scale of 0-4 Butts).
