Wicker: parents' guide

A man falls through a roof and later dies of infection, a bloody wound is sutured, a woman cuts another's face with a basket, an infant is threatened and abandoned, and a flaming lantern sets the wicker husband alight.

Frequent strong language: Movieguide counted 24 f-words, plus s-words, "cock," "arse" and God's name as an exclamation, along with many crude, explicit conversations about sex.

Several sex scenes between married couples, including a long, noisy newlywed sequence in several positions that keeps breaking the bed. Partial nudity, a man's bare backside, brief full male nudity from a distance, and a village game of dropping trousers.

Adults drink ale and wine at the tavern and at celebrations, several villagers get drunk, and a few appear to be alcoholics. No drugs or smoking.

Mostly fairy-tale whimsy, but a fatal injury, the burning of the wicker husband, threats against a baby and a late killing may unsettle some viewers. A character's mother's suicide is mentioned, not shown.
