EDITOR'S NOTE

» In the next few weeks we will be trying out In-Text Advertising, a new type of advertising that we think is less intrusive than many other formats. Basically, keywords on our pages that correspond to an advertiser's product or service will be double-underlined in green. More details here.

Sex & Nudity
Violence & Gore
Profanity
1 to 10

MPAA Rating: R

Suzy Amis stars as a woman who disguises herself as a man in order to survive the rough, sexist world of 1866.

SEX/NUDITY 6 - There are a couple of brief love scenes: the participants are topless. There's also an opaque mirror reflection of a nude woman, and another woman is shown in a sheer negligee. Men are shown taking turns in visiting prostitutes. There's an attempted rape, which is halted when the woman pulls a gun. References to oral intercourse.

VIOLENCE/GORE 5 - A woman slashes her face with a straight razor; we hear her scream and see the resulting scar. A man cuts a woman's face, and we see some blood. A number of people are shot, some in slow motion. A family is shown after being massacred, and one woman is shot in the back while she's running away. A couple of sheep are shown after an encounter with a wolf; we then see the wolf being shot.
