There is a gory shot beginning at the 6 minute 50 second mark with lots of fake blood spattered around the room where the character pretended that he cut himself to death, it shows visible bloody wounds on his body. Bloody imagery and the scene ends at 7 minute 20 second mark.

A fake hanging opens the film. It could be upsetting if you came to the movie unaware of its sardonic nature.

The movie begins with a scene with a character that seemingly killed himself by hanging. After a few moments he starts to make sounds as if he is struggling to breath and slowly dying. He is fine.

Maude is revealed to have been in the concentration camps during the Holocaust. It is likely that she suffered/suffers with it, and her outlook on life is how she copes with it.

The whole movie is around a character that pretends to commit suicide in several different ways. It is likely that he is depressed, although it is never confirmed. But the characters mother is worried about his behaviour (not in a caring way, sadly) and has him go to a psychoanalysist.

there's a real suicide at the end, and numerous fake outs for the main character's mother's benefit, but as he says, 'I wouldn't call it for her benefit'. Its so brilliant. There is faked suicides of every kind. I love this movie

At 8:28-40 he is going through a carwash that has lights that blink on and off between red and blue. At 21:05-34 cars with headlights at dusk on are driving down a path and there is a lens filter that makes them flare out, and they flash as obstacles pass in front of the headlights. At 1:16:05-41 they are at a carnival and there are many spinning and flashing lights as they exit the carnival ride. At 1:18:55-1:19:14 there is a shot of fireworks going off. At 1:25:54-1:26:01 red ambulance lights flash.

No graphic sexual scenes happen, however there is a scene which shows two characters shirtless in bed together in the morning, implying that they were intimate the night before. One of the characters models in the nude (nothing graphic shown). There are some suggestive jokes, including one visual joke involving a very large wooden carving that looks like a certain anatomical part

The ending makes me cry everytime (and I've seen it 20+ times), but there is a feeling of catharsis, satisfaction and happiness that each character is better off and got what they wanted and needed. Bittersweet ending.

There is a gory shot beginning at the 6 minute 50 second mark with lots of fake blood spattered around the room where the character pretended that he cut himself to death, it shows visible bloody wounds on his body. Bloody imagery and the scene ends at 7 minute 20 second mark. There are many other scenes where he pretends to hurt/kill himself by means of hanging, drowning in a pool, shooting himself, setting himself on fire, chopping off his hand with a cleaver, and stabbing himself in a harakiri ritual.

Fake out drowning played for laughs, no tension.
