Baby's transformation from quiet and bookish to outgoing and confident is inspiring, but it comes at the expense of her losing her innocence. Many storylines have mature themes; a lonely divorcee seduces a young man, Penny's pregnancy and botched abortion threatens her life, a middle-aged couple considers divorce, racial and socioeconomic divisions cause prejudice (an African-American man tells a teen, "Leave the little white girls alone," for instance), and so on. In every case, the content is presented thoughtfully, and there often are indicators of attitudes changing in positive ways, especially with regard to gender roles and race relations.

Not applicable

A couple of sex scenes are more suggestive than graphic (including one where a teen loses her virginity), but couples are shown cuddling in bed after the act. Lots of sultry dancing and suggestive moves with partners rubbing up against and wrapping their legs around each other. A divorcee entertains Johnny in her cabin on a few occasions (mostly kissing and implied physical contact). A man tries to force himself on a young woman. Johnny is shirtless in a few scenes, and Baby is shown in a bra.

Rarely "hell" and "jackass."

This movie remakes the '80s classic of the same name.

Teens drink wine together, and Johnny is shown drinking as well.
