"A teacher wants to show it tomorrow
but asked me to preview it for sex scenes."

Would it not be more important to preview it for how well it fits curriculum needs? 
How to incorporate it into a unit or lesson
plan? To be able to point out specific things to watch for, take notes on? Where to 
stop to discuss?

Or is it more a 'find something to fill some time'?

Do you have a video use policy in place? Movie is rated PG-13 which might require 
parent permission signed depending on grade
viewing it.

I'd send her a review or two and note appropriate age level.
