"One of the 50 Coolest Websites...they simply tell it like it is" - TIME

Don Juan Demarco | 1995 | PG-13 | - 4.2.2

Johnny Depp stars as a young man who thinks he is the legendary lover and Marlon Brando is the psychiatrist who is pulled into the young man's delusions.

SEX/NUDITY 4 - A woman stands by a mirror and we see her naked behind (in a rather long scene), a lot of talk about sex -- but usually in an archaic, romantic manner -- a few scenes of people kissing passionately. A man and woman are shown in bed presumably after having had sex. And, a man and woman are shown having sex and we see naked body parts and writhing and hear the woman moaning. The scene has a lot of cuts in it so it's hard to tell what is actually happening. A woman is shown in a see-through blouse, and a group of women are shown in various stages of undress. Photos of a nude woman are shown exposing bare breasts and behinds. A woman undresses while young boys watch her.

VIOLENCE/GORE 2 - A man stands on a billboard threatening to commit suicide. A man threatens to kill a man, charges him with a sword and crashes through a window. A sword fight results in two dead men, with small bloody wounds on their torsos.

LANGUAGE 2 - Two scatological terms and some mild obscenities.

DISCUSSION TOPICS - Insanity and delusions, retirement, mental institutions, psychotropic drugs, suicide, adultery.

MESSAGE - You must have romance to keep love alive; not all delusions are dangerous.

CAVEATS

Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.

We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.

Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
