Violence & Gore

Profanity

  • One forcefully said "f" word in the heat of an argument. Other profanities include, "s---", "son of a b--ch", "what the h---", the "d" word and "half-a--ed" are sung.
  • In the original musical, there were many more f-bombs sung, but they were toned down so the film would receive a PG-13 rating.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Jamie is seen drinking a lot in a few scenes.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Nothing frightening. The breakdown of their relationship is, at times, very upsetting. Knowing that the work is based off the writer's real life story makes it even more depressing.

Sex & Nudity

  • Early on in the movie, Jamie and Cathy are shown in the moments before sex. Kissing, rubbing, and slight disrobing occur on-screen before the scene cuts.

The scene portrays him waking up with the woman and putting his clothes back on (nothing graphic shown) This song also includes graphic sexual lines (eg, take me inside you). In an earlier scene, Jamie sings about how easy it is to cheat on his wife now that he's married.
