Conversely, as I mentioned above, I saw the movie not long after reading the article which posits the sexually abusive relationship between Nina and her mother and even though I was looking for it, I couldn't make it work.

est:
I dunno, I hadn't read the article and I thought that I saw it in places.  The mom is just too touchy-feely and is all up in her business even when she's trying to take a bath, etc. 

Barmymoo:
The thing for me that finalised it was when she is having sex with "Lily" and and Lily says "my sweet girl", and she finds out it wasn't her after all. I just couldn't see how that wasn't a deliberate message from the director.

KharBevNor:
See I didn't read that as being sexual on part of the mother. She's infantilised, the mother simply treats her in the same way you might treat a six year old, which is the reason it's creepy. The 'my sweet girl' thing is when we're in the viewpoint of a deranged mind, it's probably just basic guilt/freudian terror shit, an echo of when she is masturbating and sees her mother next to her.

Johnny C:
oh you saw it dude, what did you think
