Not a "warning label", but I think we should try to put descriptive/summary notes (520 in MARC) in the catalog for as many materials as possible, and I would note in the record for this film that it is a "tragicomedy" with poignant elements as well as containing very humorous material. This is in accord with the reviews I just read of the film. Maybe some people will say that any sort of caveat equals "censorship," but I think it's doing a service to provide descriptions of the materials whenever possible, and the patron can check the catalog to help make decisions about borrowing materials.
