Movie review and fullinfo:
A
psychological thriller set in the world of New York City ballet,
BLACK SWAN stars Natalie Portman as Nina, a featured dancer who finds
herself locked in a web of competitive intrigue with a new rival at
the company (Mila Kunis). A Fox Searchlight Pictures release by
visionary director Darren Aronofsky (THE WRESTLER), BLACK SWAN takes
a thrilling and at times terrifying journey through the psyche of a
young ballerina whose starring role as the duplicitous swan queen
turns out to be a part for which she becomes frighteningly perfect.
BLACK SWAN follows the story of Nina (Portman), a ballerina in a New
York City ballet company whose life, like all those in her
profession, is completely consumed with dance. She lives with her
retired ballerina mother Erica (Barbara Hershey) who zealously
supports her daughter,s professional ambition. When artistic director
Thomas Leroy (Vincent Cassel) decides to replace prima ballerina Beth
MacIntyre (Winona Ryder) for the opening production of their new
season, Swan Lake, Nina is his first choice. But Nina has
competition: a new dancer, Lily (Kunis), who impresses Leroy as well.
Swan Lake requires a dancer who can play both the White Swan with
innocence and grace, and the Black Swan, who represents guile and
sensuality. Nina fits the White Swan role perfectly but Lily is the
personification of the Black Swan. As the two young dancers expand
their rivalry into a twisted friendship, Nina begins to get more in
touch with her dark side with a recklessness that threatens to
destroy her. -- (C) Official Site
