ReportProfessional photographer L.B. 'Jeff' Jeffries breaks his leg while getting an action shot at an auto race.

A man watches his neighbors. This isn't inherently stalking, especially given the context of the movie.

Considering a dog was killed, yes, I'd say an animal was abused.

A dead dog is shown. Its lifeless body is carried up by its owners. It's pretty obviously fake, but still a very sad scene.

not technically.
**description of scene below**
a neighbor in a window (at a distance but still visible) who is very lonely finally gets a date, who proceeds to forcibly kiss her, grope her, shove her to the sofa and presumably proceed to attempt to rape her. she is able to fight him off, hit him, and drive him from her apartment, whereupon she bursts into tears. it's a very sad scene.

The main character's leg is already broken at the start of the film. Another leg is broken at the end of the film, and you see it.

Kind of a gray area. The wheelchair-bound character only has a temporary disability; a broken leg that is almost ready for the cast to come off. It's a bit less egregious than an able-bodied person playing a permanently disabled character, as the character is normally able-bodied too.

I'd say not really. While the cops save the day in the end, the police detective character spends most of the movie doubting the main character's suspicions and not treating the case seriously. It's only due to the involvement of Lisa, Jeff, and the nurse that the killer is apprehended.

A woman is arrested but is soon after released. A man is arrested at the end and it can be presumed he goes to prison. No scenes inside a prison are shown.

The main character does look quite a bit older than his young and beautiful girlfriend (the actors were around 20 years apart). Both are adults, though.
