A monkey is kept in a domestic home and when first brought in is in clear distress. There is also a scene from The Greatest Show on Earth where animals are potentially harmed in a train crash. (And potentially harmed in the making of the movie within the movie.)

In one of Sammy’s films, a character is “shot” in the eyes. This is all acting, the blood is fake, the guns are props, all actual people are unharmed.

When putting toilet paper on to pretend to be a mummy, one of the sisters struggles to breathe as she adjusts the toilet paper. Sammy also has a panic attack late in the film.

A character spits ketchup after filming a dentistry scene; a character spit bloods after being punched in the face. These are mostly audio with some visual. A character says they are carsick or comments on someone else being carsick, but no one actually gets sick.

An extremely subtle, tongue-in-cheek line is made about the character Sammy making a movie of his experiences someday. Sammy is a self-insert character of the director of the film, Steven Spielberg.

Sammy films war movies and westerns. The guns are all props, fake blood is used, and the gunshots themselves are created in post. No one is actually shot, it’s all “movie magic.”
