Not technically, but see the entry under asphyxiation - (spoilers) a character has a fatal allergic reaction that involves falling to the ground and spasming. This scene is very drawn out and gruesome.

Something similar to a child's toy is used as a button. It is implied that this might have been destroyed, but if so, that destruction isn't shown on screen.
One of the characters destroys the invitation box that is sent to them at the beginning of the movie; the box is full of games that can be considered childlike. One of the games is referred to as tic-tac-toe.

Kathryn Hahn's character v*s into a champagne bucket - audio, no visual. (Though there is, later, a very brief shot of the v* inside the bucket)
SPOILER (as to when it happens):
it happens shortly after a character chokes to death, and her character delivers a panicked monologue first

There is a scene early on where characters have an unspecified substance spritzed into their mouth with a gun-like object. This is most likely a "covid-b-gone" narrative device and serves no other purpose.

There is a scene where an alarm activates and flashes red, but the scene happens outside in daylight, so the flashing is somewhat mitigated. A later scene has the only lights as some flashlights and a lighthouse beacon occasionally panning over the scene.

On the contrary, Detective Blanc is shown to be silently crying in a scene, and this is presented in a very grave, poignant, "classic gentleman" way...much like the various crying scenes in LOTR.
