Continuity mistake: Before Max's computer blows up, it predicts that a specific share will fall over 30 points. The next day, Max is on a subway train and borrows a newspaper from another passenger so he can check the stock prices. The price of the share indeed has fallen, but the text next to it indicated it has risen two and a half points, rather than fallen by over thirty.
Pi (1998)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Darren Aronofsky
Starring: Mark Margolis, Ben Shenkman, Pamela Hart, Sean Gullette
Max drills the mark on his head (could be symbolism.) The mark that Max drills out is his ability to understand Pi, which, based on other examples we have seen, would lead him to his death. He chooses to live and not understand Pi. After that the little girl asks him some math questions. He just smiles and says "I do not know."
Maximillian Cohen: I'm trying to understand our world. I don't deal with petty materialists like you.
Trivia: During the second crash, the computer display is flickering with tons of garbage output. Watch carefully and you'll find a hidden message at the bottom of one of the output screens: it reads: "AND JESUS WEPT"
