“He flew in, pitched me, left. The whole thing was probably an hour and a half, and then I was like, he’s hot. I remember I was holding my dog and I shut the door and when the door shut I went, ‘Pippy, that’s called s-xual tension.’”

“He played hard to get for, like, nine months, maybe longer, which just killed me … I mean, I was in love with him for like, two years. I still love him very much.”

Mother! received a rating of 6.6/10 on IMDB and an average rating of 69% on Rotten Tomatoes. Starring Javier Bardem and Jennifer Lawrence in the lead roles, the 2017 film is available to stream on Paramount+ Apple TV in the U.S.
