Sex & Nudity
-
- Some sexual conversation.
- A scene of very heavy kissing between a priest and a lay woman.
- An underage prostitute gets into a truck with a man but a priest intervenes before anything sexual happens.
Violence & Gore
-
- Most of the violent action takes place offscreen. What is listed below is mostly the results.
- We see a murdered drug dealer's body. Very bloody face and a small pool of blood under his head.
- In a 1944 scene, a village in Europe is seen being bombed. We don't see anybody hit or killed except for a mother carrying her unconscious daughter. The scene is intense.
- This isn't violent but a statue does cry blood and sensitive viewers could find it disturbing.
- We see some wounded soldiers in a cart during a bombing raid. Some are missing limbs but are bandaged so there is no visible blood. Still, it could be disturbing to some viewers.
- We see a homeless man briefly from a distance with a bloody wound on his head either dead or passed out.
- We see a cigarette burn on a child's arm. The result of parental abuse.
Profanity
-
- About 8 uses of f**k, 3+ uses of s**t, 3+ uses of goddamn, 1 use each of ass, assholes, whore, slut, slit (presumably a derogatory word for a woman), and balls (for male genitals "busting my balls") and possibly a few other milder profanities.
- The words "Mick" and "Pollack" are each used once by a priest and although they not necessarily intended to be bigoted some Irish and Polish people might find them offensive.
- Most of the profanity is in the first half of the film. Some of the swearing(although none of the F words) are used by priests.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- Scenes of alcohol consumption with at least on incidence of a priest getting drunk.
- Several scenes of cigarette smoking.
- We see a man shoot up another person with drugs(presumably heroin) in a bad neighborhood.
- We see a man breathing into a paper bag possibly sniffing glue.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- A priest discovers some Satanic drawings with a small amount of blood on them that are quite disturbing and blasphemous.
- A bombing raid scene in 1944 is intense.
- A priest visits a bad neighborhood and the conditions of poverty, drug abuse, and prostitution are quite disturbing.
- The film as a whole is quite dramatically intense on a religious level.
