When the killer of the Black Dahlia is revealed they end up killing themselves after revealing the story. It’s heavily telegraphed but still comes quick and is graphic. It’s over after moments.

There’s a part when Bucky goes to a crime scene in the latter half of the film and there’s a shot of a dead child that horrifies him. It lingers for a moment before cutting away.

Near the beginning of the film when the two leads are boxing, a big blow gets landed on Bucky and his two front teeth get knocked out. Moments later we see they’re being replaced with a retainer.

Yes, at one point it’s said by a white man that Bucky is interrogating when he’s holding him against a wall.

When the men are boxing they break a lot of bones in each other’s faces but it’s not really tracked in future scenes.

In the final act of the movie an important clue to the mystery is this weird painting of a clown.

Vaguely? The film doesn’t super lean into the psyche of the characters but there’s a random moment near the end when Bucky gets flashbacks to the crime scenes and it upsets him.

Not alive, but we see a person put into a cremation machine and they’re not in a box of anything so you see them pushed in ever so briefly before it cuts away.

Sort of? Two people sleep together like a day after the woman’s boyfriend dies so it’s sort of not technically but there’s energy between them before he dies.

About an hour and a half in when one man is choking another on a balcony, they’re attacked and fall off and one of the man lands directly onto a spiky fountain on his head and it’s a quick but bloody and explicit moment of his head exploding.

There’s some mild antisemitic phrases used in the film at various points. Mostly just twice in the beginning and one weird comment in the latter half of the film?

Nothing is ever truly said explicitly regarding the sexualities of the characters but very coded bisexual or lesbian characters die throughout the film. It handles queer content very messily in this movie.

Not technically, but there is reference to a man being obsessed and sexually attracted to a woman who looks like his daughter. It’s unclear (to me at least) whether he is aware she’s his daughter, though.

There’s a scene where Elizabeth Short’s pornographic film is shown and it looks like she is not into the action happening and it could absolutely be triggering as the scene lingers a lot on her upset and discomfort with the sex happening. There are also references in conversation to Kay being sexually assaulted when she was a sex worker.

Lee eventually becomes very angry and takes a lot of his anger out on scaring his partner. There’s also discussion of her previously abusive relationship.

When all is revealed in the end the murderer is revealed it’s obvious that they’re very unstable and we see them kill.

Some jerk guy decides to just shoot and kill pigeons as they eat crumbs off the ground. The movie is garbage.
