Sex & Nudity
-
- Contains moderate sex
-
- Unlike other Poirot films, this one opens with a brief sex scene. The man is shown on top of the woman, and while they are under covers, he is clearly thrusting. They stop their intercourse and talk for a second. We see his bare back as he thrusts and his chest, and she is wearing a top. He then lays back down on her, and the scene cuts away. The whole thing lasts for about a minute, and although it is implied the young man is naked there is no explicit nudity.
-
- A man is unusually physical with his mother (kissing her frequently, holding hands constantly), and his rebuff of the advances of another woman imply that he may be in an incestuous relationship with his mother (who then leads him away into her bedroom).
-
- Through a misunderstanding it is suggested two characters have spent the night together, however it turns out one of them was just recovering in the other's bed from being wounded via a bullet in his leg the night before.
