There are a few topless women, one of whose breasts you can see clearly for a few seconds. Several post-coital scenes, one scene of lovemaking without a clear view of body parts usually covered by bikinis. Some scenes in which clothed women are viewed as by teenage boys.

Several scenes in which policemen beat protesters with billy clubs, Kent State shootings seen on a television, a gun fired several times without anyone being hit, one person shot in the chest with minimum gore.

Quite a bit of smoking, none of it tobacco. One scene where sugar cubes are handed out, another with candy that is drugged - the protagonist debates taking it, hoping for mescaline and fearing LSD - after he takes it, he is told that it was, indeed, acid.

Casual drinking, including a scene in which one person fills two shotglasses from a flask.
