A cop causally says “An old n**** and an old Jew women driving down the road together. Now that is one sorry sight.” The two people are out of earshot.

The only death in the movie is a black woman, but she dies of (presumably) a natural cause. Nothing brutal or graphic about it at all.

I‘d rather call it a bittersweet ending, as a movie spanning several decades about two people who were old to begin with is wont to have. You may shed a tear, but you’ll smile while doing so.
