Five Easy Pieces

The film also contains some moderate and mild language (eg.. 'bitch', 'son of a bitch', 'tit', 'shit', 'asshole', 'screwing', 'crap'). There is also a scene featuring moderate violence when a man attempts to fight off two arresting officers and another man joins the fray, punching one of the officers before being held and punched. There is a further scene where two men fight and one grabs the other in a strong headlock. Moderate sex references include scenes showing women wearing revealing clothes and photographs of women outside a sex cinema where any nudity is concealed by strategically placed stickers. Occasional scenes showing characters smoking neither promote nor glamorise smoking, simply reflecting the characters' lifestyles and the period in which the film was made.
