Don't Look Now: parents' guide

Limited but potent: a child drowns in a pond and her father carries out the body, a corpse is pulled from a canal, scaffolding gives way, and in one brief, graphic shot a throat is slashed with blood pumping and pooling.

Rare: Common Sense counts two uses each of the f-word and the s-word, and little else.

An extended sex scene between husband and wife shows both fully nude in several positions, intercut with them dressing afterward. A separate bathroom scene shows bare breasts and buttocks. It was considered unusually explicit for its time.

Characters drink whiskey to steady their nerves after shocks, and several people smoke. No drug use.

Unsettling from start to finish: a drowning, a small figure in a red coat glimpsed in dark alleys, a serial killer loose in Venice, eerie premonitions and a shocking final reveal. Intense grief runs throughout.
