"You could give her five or six notes, and she just bounces and bings between them and just completely hits each one on the nose, and, at the end, she'll just do a little, extra corkscrew that will just completely screw you up, but it's completely great and completely blows your mind even though you don't really know what it is that you saw," says Darren Aronofsky on Ellen Burstyn. Aronofsky stated that Burstyn lost forty pounds for the role. She wore several different prosthetic pieces (some which took four hours to apply), wigs, and makeup throughout the film and never complained about how arduous it all was. There are several moments in the film where Burstyn will act in a way that hides the lines on her prosthetic pieces from the camera's view.
