Consumer Advice: Contains very mild sex references, violence and language

Extended Classification Information (*SPOILER ALERT* Information may include plot details) LA FORZA DEL DESTINO is a subtitled Italian language opera about a man who inadvertently kills his lover's father and is subsequently pursued by her brother who seeks his death in return. It was passed 'U' for some very mild sex references, violence and language. Sex Guidelines at 'U' state 'Mild sexual behaviour (eg kissing) and references only (eg to 'making love')' are allowed. Occasional very mild sex references (e.g. 'Whom you seduced, then abandoned', 'sewers of sinfulness') fit this rubric. Violence Guidelines at 'U' state 'Mild violence only. Occasional mild threat or menace only'. Very mild violence (e.g. man shot and mortally wounded by a discarded revolver that accidentally discharges, woman stabbed in the chest in masked fashion) is allowable as this features within the context of a staged operatic production where there is no detail and the realism of the scenes is significantly diminished, particularly as the actors are seen to take curtain calls at the end of the 'Acts' after their characters have been killed so these are permissible at 'U' in a work with little appeal to younger viewers. LA FORZA DEL DESTINO also contains some very mild language ('God', 'hell') that is allowable at U.
