Why should we care?

This is what D. Arrogantsky said about making BS:
" I wanted to say something about ballet dancing. I just don't know what or why. Or why I'd even be particularly credible to say anything about it.
I planned to recycle all the clichés that people - myself including - have about ballet dancing and ballet dancers particularly.
That ballet dancers are much more sensitive and much more artistic creatures than the rest of us. And because of this, and because ballet dancing simply takes so much dedication and so much hard work, dancers tend to suffer from emotional instability and more often than not have problems with their sexuality. Either they are too loose or too frigid. Babies in grown-up bodies. Who lead sheltered and isolated lives, who probably still live with their parent - in singular because that's even more telling!
Stuff like that, well you know.
That's why I wanted some hot lessy scenes in the film. Well that and because it will lure those reluctant males into theaters, too. And I made the ballet director the typical dirty and scheming old man. That's how we males get to see some action yet remain clean ourselves.
I wanted to cast Portman as the leading lady because the public for some reason sees her as the greatest living actress around - plus I think it would be just too damn funny to make this whiny, self-proclaimed goody-goody girl-woman with two-expressions cry and twist her face throughout most of the set and to make her touch her self, to boot.
Haha, a riot - I know!
And in the end I'm just going to nullify all criticism by lamely pointing out that it was just all in her head anywayz - and then maybe add later on how, if you pay attention, you'll see what really went down after all. Major mindf*ck!! Ding-ding-ding-ding! Yes folks, that really does work. People are stoopid that way. That's the whole point of my films, yet no one seems to get it.
I trust that all hipsters will say they got my film, and that they will bring more of their hipster friends in the cinemas. That always makes my day! It's especially comforting as I walk to the bank. It just cracks me up every time, I swear! "
OK, I'm not 100% sure if the director actually said all this. It could just be all in my head. Wow.
