A character mentions having vomited as part of a panic attack, but this is a story about something that happened in the past and is not depicted on-screen. There is no graphic detail.

The f-slur is used once in a transphobic context. It is a trans woman telling a story about something that happened to her in her childhood; the interaction is not depicted on-screen.

The only time thisbis mentioned, can be heard when the trans person Haper reads out tweets made about her (lasts about 3-5 minutes). The movie and cast show their distance to the tweets immediately.

The movie begins with Will Ferrel talking about his best friend, using her deadname and old pronouns. This only happens at the beginning of the movie. Part of the context is that this trans woman is a comedy writer and people may know her work under her deadname, so it is reasonable to establish her identity. Also, this is a documentary about a real person who presumably really was okay with this, not a trans character who was written to be okay with it. This person also occasionally uses her deadname to refer to herself pre-transition.

No one is explicitly stated to have gone through with an attempt, but there is discussion of suicidal ideation and allusions to a specific method. It is non-graphic and ends on a positive note of how they learned to love living as their authentic selves.

There is a brief scene where Will Ferrell talks about not being in shape and Harper tells him he may not be the weight he wants to be in a speedo, but he looks good in a suit. There is also discussion of gender dysphoria, but it is distinct from body dysmorphia and usually focuses on the positives of taking steps to a physical transition.

No explicit eating disorder, but there is discussion of being out of shape and having more weight than they might want. The scene ends on a positive note of "looking good in a suit".

There was a firework scene and a karaoke scene. Both showed kind of flashing light. I get overwhelmed by that stuff most of the times. The movie depicts these so "slow" that I didn't find it hurtfull.

There are also a few brief shots of vandalism to this trans woman's home that contain the first few letters of homophobic slurs, but the camera does not show the full word.

The movie avoids discussing this trope entirely. A trans woman does talk about wearing dresses before she transitioned, but there is no discussion of or jokes about "man in a dress".

Yes, repeatedly. This movie is about a trans woman on a road trip in rural America. It is corrected by Will or Harper each time it happens and often the person corrects themself afterwards, but not always. The only time it is explicitly malicious is a scene about cyberbullying- many tweets with dehumanizing and purposely misgendering language are shown. This is clearly portrayed as wrong in the context of the movie and the two leads discuss it.

Not "jokes" exactly, but discussion of weight and shame around it. The scene is brief and ultimately ends on a positive note, but Will Ferrell laments not being in good shape.

There is a scene at a pool where Will Ferrel takes off his swim trunks and it is implied he's going nude, but he actually has a tight speedo on underneath. We only see it briefly before he jumps in the pool. He is shirtless with his waist not visible beneath the water for a longer scene afterwards. No sexual nudity.

In my opinion no, but there is a joke about someone's breasts. The person who it is about thinks it is funny and it is not a sexual context. Additionally, this is a documentary, so it is the real person's reaction to the joke about her and not a character being written to be okay with it.

There are multiple jokes about breasts and brief discussions of sex lives (in the context of "I don't expect to be very sexually active at my age" and how it impacts Harper's desire for bottom surgery). There is a brief shot of Will Ferrell in a revealing bathing suit, but it is comedic and non-sexual.

Sort of- the end credit song is a song written for the movie that was teased about during the movie, so it is worth sticking around to listen to it.

The movie is about a road trip, but there are no crashes or close calls. There are a few jokes about being a bad driver and someone very briefly drives in the wrong lane on an empty road.

There is discussion of someone going to a gun store with the implication this was a plan to commit suicide. She did not end up buying the gun. There is no graphic detail. It is also a story being told that happened in the past and is not depicted on-screen.
