    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Veda's singing parts were actually performed by world-renowned coloratura soprano, Sumi Jo. The filmmakers used some of Jo's existing recordings along with new recordings made specifically for this movie. Evan Rachel Wood (Veda) worked with Deborah Surdi, a vocal coach at the Opera Orchestra of New York, to learn proper posture and breathing techniques.
    • Goofs
      In the end credits the Triple Concerto by Beethoven is identified as Op. 55. It is actually his Op. 56.
    • Quotes

      Mildred Pierce: But why, Veda? Haven't I given you everything you've ever wanted? If there was something you needed, couldn't you have come to me first instead of resorting to this? To blackmail?

      Veda Pierce: You want to know why? I'll tell you why. With enough money, I can get away from you! You... And your pie-wagons, and chickens, and everything that smells of grease! I can get away from Glendale, and its dollar days, and furniture factories, and women that wear uniforms and men that wear smocks! From every rotten, stinking thing that even reminds me of this place. Or you.

      Mildred Pierce: I see.
