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.
