Parents guide

A woman mentions that she will lose her apartment unless she blows the superintendent.

In the version I watched (streaming), there are several brief discussions about sexual situations, mostly by the younger characters. There is no on screen sexual acts. There is no on screen nudity. The sexual behaviors are either hidden or edited during production or perhaps were edited out later for commercial reasons.

A young boy masturbates in a library to a picture of a nude female chest by rubbing his crotch on the edge of a wooden bookshelf. We see him reach down in his pants, take the ejaculate out in his hand, and smear it across some books on a shelf. We see the ejaculate dripping from the books. In a separate scene, he rubs some on someone's locker, but the actual act of masturbation is not shown.

A young boy lays out a bra and panties on a bed and rolls a condom on, out of curiousity, but it is not shown.

A boy kisses a girl and we see their tongues moving back and forth.

A man and his two kids discuss their mother's affairs with other men a few times.

A scene from "Blue Velvet" shows Isabella Rosselini nude from the waist up very briefly and in a non-sexual way. Her breasts are fully exposed.

A teenage boy (and the camera) stares at a young woman's behind in her jeans. Later, the same boy stares at a woman's groin while she's sitting cross-legged in shorts. He leans forward and kisses her knee.

A man and a woman are implied to have been having sex.

A teenage boy wonders often whether he should sleep with his girlfriend or other girls. He talks to other teenagers about this, they suggest both. He also talks to his father about it several times.

A boy accidentally hits a girl in the nose with his head and she gets a bloody nose.

There is no gore. The only violent act is a face slap by an adult. The accidental bloody nose does not fit the definition of violence as it was unintentional.

Some parents fight, a mother slaps her son on the face.

25 uses of "fuck"

The movie contains graphic sexual dialogue. Lots of profanity sprinkled throughout. Many curse words are used, to varying degrees. "Cunt" (used merely as a replacement for "vagina") is heard twice and "pussy" is heard once (referring to a character's "pussy muscles" during ejaculation). A young boy curses profusely.

Anna Paquin and Halley Feiffer smoke cigarettes outside a restaurant.

A young boy is seen drinking on about three different occasions. In one of these scenes he throws up in a toilet, and the vomit is shown exiting his mouth briefly.

One scene suggesting sexual coercion is very brief, both characters are fully clothed adults, and is not violent. Nevertheless, it may be frightening or intense for some viewers. Some of the relationship issues may intense or disturbing to some viewers.

Some scenes might be emotional.
