People briefly passionately kiss and embrace each other in an establishment of sex. Occasional verbal references are made to adulterous relationships.

There is a flashback sequence shot in black and white in which police officers brutally beat a black man for refusing to move seats on a bus. Racist characters pour ketchup over a black woman's head and verbally abuse her. There is archive footage of real violence directed at African-American children during a peaceful protest. Infrequent racist language ('n***r') occurs. There is also use of racial language ('negro') within a historical context. References are also made to homophobic attitudes which reflect the historical period in which the film is set. Homophobia is clearly condemned throughout.
