The Harmonists (1997)

I a fleeting scene, a man uses a pen to playfully paint an "f-hole" on a woman buttocks suggesting similarity to a cello. A woman's buttocks are visible in a thong-type undergarment. Scantily dressed prostitutes:A woman's buttocks are visible in a thong-type undergarment. another shows a barely discernible glimpse of a breast thru a sheer upper garment, and is fleeting and barely visible. Prostitution and the main character's presence in a brothel is implied through choice words and commonly-understood images but done so in a "soft" manner and not spoken of directly. A man displays postcards, of nude women, that he has for sale. One scene where hints are given as to the meaning of a song being about an erection, a woman lets her hand run down the front of a man's trousers. As with the other scenes it is not overt or drawn out. Except for "going up stairs" with a prostitute, Sex is not discussed, or shown in any maner. (It appears like all/some of the quick nudity was just over the line for R-rating.)

Nazi thugs rough up a man giving him a bloody nose and cut on his head. One holds a knife on another. A woman is slapped after she contemptuously spits in a mans face. A man slaps another on the face during an argument for emphasis, but he is not hurt. (Not R-rating violence)

None. "Jew" used in a derogatory tone (and sometimes not). One instance of "jewish pig". Derogatory statements are written on a shop's windows, but they are not highlighted and are in German. Most will know what they are, but not be able to read the words.

Since it is the 30's, cigarettes and cigars abound. Drinking of champaign, no drunkenness In one scene a very minor character unsuccessfully tries to sell cocaine. In a later scene a woman is seen snorting - cocaine is assumed, but not shown.

SA troops ("brown shirts") Ransack a store and threaten a women who works there. A man breaks a window to enter and defend her. He is beaten by the Nazis. He walks out with cut head and bloodied nose. Another man is held at bay with a knife.
