ReportSynopsis
Humble Maria, who outfits top London theater star Ned Kynaston, takes none of the credit for the male actor's success at playing women. And because this is the 17th century, Maria, like other females, is prohibited from pursuing her dream of acting. But when powerful people support her, King Charles II lifts the ban on female stage performers. And just as Maria aided Ned, she needs his help to learn her new profession.

A male character implies in conversation that he might’ve been sexually abused as a child. However, nothing is shown, and there’s no explicit dialogue here.

This is hard to answer. Someone is severely beaten, they’re clearly suffering. I’m not sure if that’s considered torture, but I figure it’s worth mentioning.

A man lets 2 women feel him up who want to know for certain he’s a man. No nudity. Sex probably implied. A brief sex scene with no nudity, played for comedic purposes. A man kisses another man, sex implied, but nothing shown on screen. Sexual dialogue.

I didn’t hear any slurs. And there aren’t any confirmed transgender characters, maybe because of the era it takes place in. But a male main character makes a living playing women in plays. He mentions on a few occasions that he feels like a woman, that he doesn’t know who he is if he isn’t playing one. This character is degraded through most of the movie. It’s not really for his identity though. It’s more about not keeping up with a change in times. So, short answer, no, but I just wanted to mention it in case anyone finds it upsetting.

No slurs that I can think of. But, given the time this movie takes place in, homosexuality is looked down on by many of the characters.

A woman pulls down her dress to show her breast for a portrait. She doesn’t really want to, but agrees when the painter says they need to prove she’s a real woman. Non-sexual. A brief shot of a woman shown nude from behind.

Sorta; it depends if this means characters in the movie do the mocking, or the movie itself does. A male character is mocked for not conforming to traditional gender roles by other characters in the movie. However, the movie does not glamorize the mocking.

The movie revolves around actors in the 1600s acting in Othello. Staying accurate to the times, a white character does do blackface. Not trying to excuse this - just trying to provide context in case someone wants it.

I don’t think so? But this is hard to say. It seems like a bisexual character might’ve been cheated on. His male partner is at one point engaged to a woman.

A male character says he feels like a woman, or feels like a woman playing a man. His whole life revolves around playing women on stage. He seems to struggle with gender identity, however, given that this movie takes place in the 1600s, he isn’t really able to explore his identity beyond this.

Not shown specifically, but there’s a scene where a man is beaten by a group of people. No injury detail, but he walks around with a cane later. Heavily implied to have broken/dislocated injuries in that scene.

There’s a little bit of blood coming from a man’s mouth after he is beaten, but it’s nothing excessive.
