In the very beginning you see butchers carving up animal carcasses and fish filets. (And people eat meat. )

Well described in the general "sexual assault" comment. It's not verbally made fun of, but depicted as a fun thing.

Two attempts, by a character in temporary despair due to misfortune. Neither is drawn out or shown with great seriousness. First attempt with gun - it doesn't go off. Second attempt with pills - character is not shown taking them, but is shown being found immediately afterwards. It then cuts straight to him recovering in bed.

Winthorpe tries twice near the end of the movie, after he tries and fails to plant drugs in Valentine's desk. Skip the five minutes after he leaves the building and gets on the bus
