They do an exam of sorts, measuring various parts of the Queen (distance between nipples, checked the scar on her back) to deem if she's healthy or not. She wears her underlayer/gown thing but it's sheer and there's other people in the room. It seemed like a standard at the time but FYI.

Yes, around one hour and 11 minutes into the film, someone walks in on Queen Christina and her lady in waiting. The guy had unrequited love for the queen the whole time and takes it out on her / does not handle it very well. Someone else comes into the room and stops it before it goes too far but could definitely be triggering for some.

Around 55 minutes into the film (very brief, no blood / we see her clothed and reclined), though it is discussed by the blonde and a guy earlier on (after she eavesdrops on Christina and her 'bed warmer' (Countess/lady in waiting/love interest.)

I didn't notice any specific slurs but the court is homophobic.

There's an attempt on the Queen by someone after the dissection scene, and then she attempts after the wedding scene.

A lot of the movie is based around the royal court being homophobic towards to queen.

An unrequited one, sort of.

Her first cousin is in love with her (unrequited) and assaults her (slapped + kissed) when he finds her with her lady (intimate). In an unorthadox way, she queen later grants his wish to be her king and it's also an attempt to quell all of the efforts to get her to marry and have a kid– she declares him her son.

They examine a brain (it's inside the person's head, and then they... access it.) Around 58-60 minutes into the film. You'll have warning / know it's coming as well.

Someone fires a gun at the queen around one hour into the film. (She's ok, she's pushed out of the way and hits her head, but we don't see that-- we just see the screen go black.)
