L.I.E.

Movie • 2001 • Drama  

Report
In this biting and disturbing coming-of-age tale from writer-director Michael Cuesta, life is bittersweet along the L.I.E., also known as the Long Island Expressway, as suburban teen Howie Blitzer learns all too clearly. In the space of a week, he loses nearly everything and everyone he knows and is left to navigate his adolescence virtually unsupervised.

multiple minors are sexualised throughout the movie so i cant really give a time stamp but it happens quite often so if you are uncomfortable with that you definitely should not watch this movie.

A character leans on top of another (while laying down) and lets spit come out of his mouth, threatening to get it on the character on the floor. He sucks it back in and they joke and stand up.
The way it's filmed, the spit is lowered towards the camera.

not really, but the protagonist stands on a bridge at the start and it seems like he might jump, he is balancing on the railing and even lets one foot off it to lean forward to make it seem like he will fall down (there are cars driving under the bridge). This scene is shown at the start and in the middle of the movie around the 1 hour mark (i think)
