There's a scene where there's a cock fight, and though the information is scarce, I found an old article mentioning that that was in fact a real cock fight. It looked like the "losing" rooster died afterwards.
Not cool, moviemakers.

There's a cock-fighting scene, which I unfortunately think was actually a real one.
The rooster who "lost" dies in a man's arms afterwards. Would not recommend watching that scene.

Homer finally snaps when Adore won't stop hurling insults and throws a stone at him, so he chases the kid around and stomps him to death.
