Sex & Nudity
Mild
The film focuses mainly upon a toxic relationship. The male lead forcefully kisses the lead female a few times until she gives into his advances. Themes of deflowering, infidelity, and sexual relationships are implied but not shown. Nothing more than kissing is shown.
Violence & Gore
Mild
The shootout at the end is quite violent for a 1940's film.
