  We see a couple dancing and the man's arms are around the woman's chest and he kisses her neck. A young man and a young woman kiss. A young man kisses a young woman. A man kisses a woman on the cheek. A young man places his hand on top of a young woman's hand.

  At a function, they zoom in on the woman in the pink dress. It's zoomed on her cleavage, she's very endowed and they bounce as she walks, causing most men to stare. It's hyper focused on them for several seconds. A scene later shows the same women, currently drunk, she then sneaks up to another woman at a table and surprise hugs her from behind while her cleavage squishes the back of her neck, a lady on the next seat gives them an odd look.

  Very dramatic movie, many heavy scenes

  A maid is about to get beaten by her husband when being on the phone with another maid.

  The aforementioned pie scene may make some viewers squeamish.
