Harassment includes graphic groping, and an abduction/assault is attempted but thwarted.

Not explicitly, but there is appetite shaming and a woman states that she did not eat at all the day before.

No, but there is a scene in a dressing room towards the end of the movie where someone says to a person who seems unhappy, “why don’t you go [kill yourself in a specific manner]”

There are MANY jokes at the beginning of the movie about Polish people. Nearly all of these jokes include the use of the slur "Polack".

There’s easily a 20 year age gap between Jennifer Beals and the actor who plays her love interest. On top of that, he’s her boss.

There are many characters who are erotic dancers, which I think is objectifying by definition. That said, the story centers around one of those dancers, and the film itself doesn’t employ a lot of the “male gaze” techniques one might expect.

Yes. There is a scene where the main character exits a moving car, causing the driver to stop and other cars behind them have to veer and stop suddenly. Several cars honk and have to screech to a hault.
