High Hopes

strong language

Language
There are multiple uses of strong language ('f**k'). Milder bad language includes uses of 'bloody', 'bleeding', 'piss', 'dick', 'turd', 'knob' and 'willy'.
Other issues include drug use as a man is shown preparing, lighting and smoking a joint. A couple of other scenes show joints being smoked. There are some moderate sex references, including a man telling a woman that he's 'rock hard' while a couple argue about who is going 'to start' in bed. There's some kissing and cuddling but no actual on-screen sex. There is also some discussion of abortion and the rights of an unborn foetus. Several people smoke tobacco cigarettes.
