(SPOILERS) At the 1980 New Year Party, Little Bill shoots his wife and her lover and then himself. Skip for about 45 seconds after he goes and gets the gun from his car.

The entire movie is about porn. Many graphic sex scenes. The final shot is of Mark Wahlberg’s (prosthetic) Penis

No, but there is this weird thing where Amber calls Eddie her son or her boy, then later they have sex.
