She's injected with a tranquilizer when she's having a panic attack, though that seems consensual. But she's also given twilight sedation during a medical procedure that she's changed her mind about.

This movie is beyond extreme in its portrayal of sexual assault, again and again.

No, there’s no ‘excessive’ gore. There’s barely gore at all. I know the part people are referring to but y’all don’t understand what ‘excessive gore’ means, clearly.

skip from 2:08:00- 2:08:45. audio and visual, Marilyn is sick in an aeroplane toilet after taking pills to "help her sleep". She has a nightmare where people are applauding her just skip this whole bit.
marilyns internal monologue later says when giving jfk a blow job "dont gag and don;t throw up" but she doesnt so no danger
at 2:18:21 she gets waken up from sleeping on the floor and is sick visually whilst being pulled up to stand. i'd skip until 2:18:35 to be safe.

1:52:50 I’m not sure but when Whitey is calming her down it seems like Marilyn may have slashed her wrist? It is hard to see though because it is black and white and weirdly lit

Someone calls the two guys in the relationship with Marylin ‘cock suckers’. I can’t imagine thats just a generic insult term back then and they actually meant it literally… so yes.

The famous “Well, nobody’s perfect” ending from Some Like It Hot (1959) is shown, which is a man in dress gag. While not played for laughs in Blonde, we also see an actor as Jack Lemmon in drag.

Not shown but she got a phone call from one of her Ex who told her that her other poly amorous Ex dies from an overdose and because they where in an bisexual love triangel I would say yes.
The call is at 02:24:15 to 02:20:15.

Sprinkled all over the movie because she was seen as a sex symbol. So we see her nude for movies and shootings, when she has sex or also partly while she got sexually assaulted.

No, but the film is not subtle about playing up Marilyn’s supposed Electra complex, with her calling multiple sexual partners “Daddy” constantly
