Not really on screen, but someone talks about how they drink too much & act out.

The same Hollywood mansion used in “The Godfather” appears in this film - though luckily, no horse meets the same fate as Khartoum in that film.

A woman mentions that she had been pregnant once, but lost the baby. She says she gets sad thinking about it, but that's the extent of discussion

This might be subjective. I found it to be sad, but someone else might find it hopeful.
