A Single Man
Contains suicide theme, moderate threat, drug references and nudity
drugs
There is a discussion of the hallucinogen 'mescaline', in which a student, who has enthused about the experience, asks his teacher if he ever took drugs and which he confirms he did, but that it resulted in him behaving stupidly. Drug misuse is not condoned by the film as a whole.
nudity
There are a couple of scenes of sexualised nudity; however, no sexual activity takes place.
suicide and self-harm
The theme of suicide is central in this film, and features a man who, having been on the verge of committing suicide, ultimately makes the choice not to do so. In one scene, the man lies on his bed and puts the barrel of the gun in his mouth. However, his suicide attempt is subsequently interrupted by the telephone ringing.
additional issues
There are also some scenes in which adults smoke cigarettes, and which reflect the time period in which the film is set.
