In addition to the above, a character implies that she's been hit by men before, saying that it seems like they all must have been taught in school how to hit.
Also, toward the beginning, the male lead briefly manhandles the female lead (first grabbing her arm, then her wrist.)

Female protagonist mentions when discussing her backstory that her mother used to lock her in the attic when she misbehaved at a child. No children are abused throughout the course of the film.

We witness some extras in the opening scenes purchasing and using drugs in the background. Drug abuse is briefly discussed. No major characters use drugs.

Male protagonist's lawyer arrives at the hotel very angry and perhaps already with some alcohol in his system. He proceeds to drink some more before losing control and attempting to force himself on the female protagonist. Various extras are seen drinking in the opening scenes.

^ that’s a different category though! And it’s a bit unintentionally condescending to talk about a grown woman in that way, I’m not saying the film or sex work is unproblematic by any means but it is kind of SWERFy to equate all sex workers with minors, just saying

Technically yes there is blood but it’s a very small amount. (Richard Gere hits Jason Alexander, which causes his nose to bleed.)
