Goofs
Even though the film has not indicate the year, the mise en scène places the story in the early 1970s.
Some cars that weren't in the production until the mid-1980s were visible in the parallel parking scene: Rover 800 (production started in 1986), third-generation Audi 100 (1982-1991), Volvo 245 (updated taillamps from 1981 onward), and second-generation Volkswagen Jetta (1984-1992).
The type of external rear-view mirrors and bumpers on Jaguar XJ driven by Jerôme (Shia LeBeouf) indicates a Series III (1979-1992) while the period-correct Jaguar XJ (Series I or II) should have chrome mirrors and bumpers. See more »
Quotes
Seligman:
Love is blind.
Joe:
No, no, no. It's worse. Love distort things. Or even worse, love is something you never asked for. The erotic was something that I ask for or even demanded of men. But this idiotic love... I felt humiliated by it. And all the dishonesty that follows.
Joe:
The erotic is about saying yes. Love appeals to lowest instincts, wrapped up in lies. How do you say yes when you mean no? And vice-versa. I'm ashamed of what I became. But it was beyond my control.

Near the very end of the credits there is this disclaimer: "None of the professional actors had penetrative sexual intercourse and all such scenes where [sic] performed by body doubles." See more »
Nymphomaniac Volume I is simply a shameful movie with porn. It tells the story of a woman called "Joe" who was found on the street beaten and rescued by an old man called "Seligman". This film is a rather a porn biography of an insatiable whore who can never stop having sex!.
If you like explicit scenes of a hairy vagina,oral and anal sex,all you have to do is see this movie!.
My point of view about Nymphomaniac Volume I is that it is tasteless and absolutely cheap and watching this kind of movies will make porn seekers horny.
If you enjoy seeing some porn and explicit sex you gotta see this movie!.
