There is a brief appearance of a woman who is implied to be a prostitute (in the credits it is clarified that she actually is), however she does nothing throughout the film.

The most "violent" scene in the film is the train chase. But beyond that scene there is nothing.

There are very brief references to alcohol but nothing more.

The train chase is the most shocking scene in the entire film, and can be quite disturbing for sensitive viewers and young audiences.

The film has a dramatic and somber tone throughout. Reinforced by both the music and the shots, the handling of the camera, the photography and the dialogues.
