She said: "I cut my finger throwing something at him (Rourke). I squeezed a can and sliced my finger open in the middle of the scene. I'm covered in blood and (Aronofsky) the director's going, 'Use it! Look at your hand! Keep going! Let's take some photos of that blood make sure ours is authentic.' (He's) Not like, 'Are you OK?' He said, 'So we can call an ambulance, but we don't have a lot of time. We can superglue it.'"
