A bit of a gray area here, but I think it's important to mention: In an early scene, Maud and Everett are in bed (they share a bed in theory platonically because it's the only bed in the house). Everett holds Maud and then pulls up her nightgown. She tells him "If you're going to do that, we ought to get married." He brushes this objection away and positions himself on top of her despite her saying no. He only stops when she tells him that she previously had a baby that died.
The relationship between the main couple, Maud and Everett, is abusive in many ways. At one point he backhands her for making a joke he doesn't like (a friend sees this and mildly chastises him). Everett is constantly verbally abusive to Maud.
