Common Sense Note

Parents need to know that A Little Chaos takes place in 17th-century France during the construction of Versailles, and focuses on Sabine De Barra (Kate Winslet), a grieving widow who's tapped to build part of the palace's famous gardens and must deal with men who are certain they're superior to any female landscape architect. There are brief glimpses of naked breasts and butts, and love scenes show people moving and moaning, vigorously. A few sequences include social drinking, and a terrible carriage accident kills two people, including a child, though the bodies aren't shown.

Sexual Content

One scene briefly shows a women's naked breasts. Love scenes show a couple entwined, moving vigorously with enthusiastic sound effects; a man's bare butt is shown.

Violence

A terrible carriage accident leaves two people dead, though the bodies aren't shown. Tense moments between an unhappily married couple.

Social Behavior

It's important to stay true to your artistic vision, even if nobody else understands what you're doing. Sabine's rivals repeatedly discount her ideas, but in the end the payoff is worth it, and she's recognized for creating something beautiful. Themes include a woman succeeding despite huge odds/lots of skepticism.

Consumerism

Not applicable

Drugs / Tobacco / Alcohol

A few scenes show people drinking wine at meals and parties.
