Common Sense Note

Parents need to know that this movie is one of the finest American films ever made, and a must for fans of ruthless black comedy. The humor is too sophisticated and the mood too dark to offer preteens much entertainment, but mature teens will appreciate this cinematic treasure. Some mature themes to discuss after viewing: suicide, fame, the desire to hold on to the past.

Sexual Content

Not applicable

Violence

A few deadly shots fired. Much of the movie has an eerie, unsettlingly dreamlike quality to it. Tortured by her lost youth and fame, an aging, delusional actress turns to suicide.
