Message | Even in Victorian England, a woman can learn to stand up for herself and doesn't have to settle for a life of emotional abuse from a cruel and neglectful husband. |
Role model | Effie starts the film as a naive young newlywed whose own identity is closely tied to that of her new husband, a well-regarded writer. But eventually she's able to create her own sense of self and seek out what will make her happy. |
Violence | A woman is groped and nearly assaulted, and she must flee through a succession of dark and isolated alleys. A husband and wife use cruel words to each other during arguments. |
Sex | Movie revolves around a young woman in a loveless, sexless marriage. Several discussions about the lack of physical intimacy in their relationship, albeit in the genteel, circumspect conversational patterns of the time. One scene shows Effie undressing; viewers see her nightgown falling to the floor. A nude man is later seen from behind, from a distance. |
Drugs | Some social drinking at dinner parties. |
