The main female character fakes domestic abuse (involving a fake murder) from her husband to punish him, which is very triggering for victims who are often called liars in real life.

Halfway through the film there is the plot of the main female character faking rape to go after a minor male character, which can be triggering for actual victims since women are often accused of faking assault.

Semi-spoiler: No actual on-screen rape, but a character stages things such that they can pass as a rape victim upon assessment. These tactics are shown and part of it is quite graphic. There's also another person that tells a story of being similarly set up by the same character in the past.

There's a scene where one character kills the other by cutting his/her throat. I think this scene takes 5 to 10 seconds, it's when Amy is in bed with Desi Collings in his mansion

Horrific flashing through out.
My husband had several seizures but he powered through lol There's a paparazzi flashing every other scene. If it's night time, assume it's flashing. Between police lights and paparazzi it's horrible.
Please stop saying "no" to flashing if you aren't sure. It's the one trigger on here that can kill someone. Please be careful about being so confidently wrong.
