Sex & Nudity

Mild
2 of 2 found this mild
A man sees an acquaintance having dinner with an attractive woman in cleavage-baring apparel, and congratulates him and mentions the woman being a "promotion".
The woman mentioned above starts a conversation with the complimenting man, and they move it up her apartment. It is implied that she is a prostitute. You see her shoulders throughout the scene, her bare back, and a shot of her buttocks.
A soldier attempts to rape a young woman but is stopped. Not graphic.
