For families

Editorial guidance

Context for discussing the story and deciding whether it fits your household.

01

Positive messages

Constructive themes or examples.

The film can support constructive discussion about respect, consent and honesty in relationships, trust, fidelity and the consequences of adult choices, substance use and its effects on families. Parents can focus on how characters respond to pressure, whether harmful choices are challenged, and what accountability looks like. The guide treats these as discussion opportunities rather than claiming that every character or event is presented as a positive role model.

02

Negative behaviours

Conduct that may need context.

Content requiring context includes romance and relationship themes, adult relationship or sexual themes, alcohol use or drunken behavior. Some characters may make harmful, deceptive, coercive or reckless choices, and the consequences can be emotionally difficult even when the filmmaking is not graphic. Parents can distinguish between behaviour the story depicts and behaviour it endorses, particularly where power, trust, justice or family relationships are involved.

03

Topics to discuss

Conversation starters after viewing.

Useful family discussion topics include respect, consent and honesty in relationships, trust, fidelity and the consequences of adult choices, substance use and its effects on families. Parents can ask which characters had safer or fairer alternatives, how the story treats people with less power, and whether consequences match the choices made. For an older film, it may also be useful to compare the social attitudes shown on screen with present-day expectations about respect and consent.

Final recommendation

Our family-viewing take

Suggested minimum age: 13+. This film is better for teenagers than younger children. The main reasons are romance and relationship themes, adult relationship or sexual themes, alcohol use or drunken behavior. For shared family viewing, use the category ratings as a guide and preview if a child is sensitive to these themes. Where research sources were sparse, the recommendation is deliberately cautious and does not assume that undocumented content is absent.
