What Parents Need to Know
About Bull Durham
Parents need to know that there are many explicit discussions of sexuality in this film. Susan Sarandon's character spends a great deal of screen time outlining her philosophy on sexuality, especially about the relationship between sex and baseball. Other characters pipe in with their own takes on the matter. There are a few scenes of simulated sex with a little nudity. Alcohol, strong language, bar fights and a marijuana reference are also onscreen.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about making connections between sexuality and other facets of life (perceived or otherwise). Kevin Costner's character gripes about his lot in life as well as personal limitations that prevent him from moving up in the majors. Parents might talk about knowing your strengths and appreciating the good things in front of you.
