The story centers on a woman whose outgoing nature and desire to find love bring her in conflict with the straight-laced public morality of the time. She dresses in tight-fitting clothing, is flirtatious, and it's implied that she has previously repulsed efforts to pressure her into prostitution.

An unclothed man has fallen outside the bedroom of a woman, also nude; it's implied they've had sex. Her breast is briefly visible.

Laura Dern's character Rose, is dressed up to go into town, and her dress is see through. As she walks in town, the camera pans to her bottom, and it appears she is wearing tiny panties, as the crack of her backside is visible and the man and women are seen staring at her jiggly bum as she walks.

A young woman (Laura Dern) throws herself on a man (Robert Duvall) and says she's in love with him. They kiss deeply and she bares her right breast. He puts his hand on her naked breast and slightly squeezes it. Two kids watch the incident.

A young teenage boy looks at nudie cards in his room. A young woman jumps in bed with him and he fondles her breast. The teen reaches under the sheets and its implied he rubs her vagina. The woman climaxes, no nudity is seen.

Two men are seen fighting in the dark outside a house. The owner fires a shotgun and threatens to shoot them.

We learn that other fights have occurred, and that a policeman's thumb was bitten.

At most a damn or two.

A few short scenes of cigarette smoking.

People argue over whether a woman should have a perhaps-involuntary hysterectomy.
