In the second story a character is put on a horse to be hung, it’s interrupted by a battle scene where he tries to keep the horse in place so he doesn’t hang. After, he is hung but gets shot down after struggling for a while.

Offscreen and inexplicit, but a character hires a prostitute while a third person is in the room. They both undress a little with no nudity, and before they do anything sexual, it jump cuts to afterwards with them both sitting on the bed fully clothed.
