Trivia
Throughout the entire movie, no one's name is ever mentioned and not a single character is ever referred to by any name. Characters are listed in the end credits by their roles in the story.

Goofs
When the Michelle Pfeiffer's character burns her hand on the skillet, her husband tells "Mother" to get some ice. As a medical doctor (he said earlier that he is a surgeon) he would know that applying ice to a burn can further damage the tissue. It would have been better to run her hand under cold water.

Quotes
Mother: [crying] You never loved me. You just loved how much I loved you.

Crazy credits
At the end of the credits, a steady heartbeat is heard.

Anxiety: The Movie.

The way it's shot, how the dialog is written, the characters and their choices, all odd and nonsensical at first, but all there for a reason. All there to help write a poem that wants to tell you something. Some things. Everything.

Mother! is an astonishing yet nerve-racking allegorical picture that won't leave your mind.
