The Purple Rose of Cairo (1985) More at IMDbPro »

A prostitute (presents herself as "a working girl") invites Tom Baxter to "have a good time". She then takes him to a brothel where a group of prostitutes, some with scanty attire, try to seduce him by proposing various explicit services. One of the prostitutes raises her leg to him and asks whether he likes her stockings. The prostitutes get to like Tom and therefore offer their services for free. They then explain explicitly what a whorehouse is.

A fist fight between Monk and Tom Baxter takes place in a church. Towards the end of the fight, Monk uses a groin kick to overcome his rival. No blood or gore in this scene.

On a few occasions along the film, Monk and Cecilia, his wife, are discussing the fact that he beats her. However, no such activity is shown.

It is apparent that Monk is an alcoholic.
