Statutory rape. She’s 15 and he’s 35. It “looks” consenting but she’s not a legal adult yet so it doesn’t matter.

Super briefly. A mom slaps her daughter on the cheek in frustration.

It could be argued that every person who does drugs and alcohol in this movie has an addiction. This is California in the 70s and everyone was doing everything.
