Smoking of cigarettes and cigars.
Several scenes take place inside nightclubs, and there is a lot of social drinking among patrons.
It is vaguely implied that a woman has developed a drinking problem as a result of her husband's abuse; in one scene, she is seen drinking from a wine glass and her husband tells her she "ought to lay off that stuff".

Frightening & Intense Scenes

Mild

The movie focuses on an abusive marriage. In a few scenes, a woman breaks down crying as a result of her husband's controlling behaviour.
