Wonderful...

Rating: 9/10 (16 September 2011)

A young ballet dancer with the perfect personality to play the White Swan in Swan Lake but not the Black is forced to look deep inside herself to find her dark side in order to play both roles. A deeply disturbing film, with some genuinely scary moments, Black Swan fully deserves its recent awards and nominations.
Natalie Portman gives an amazing, Oscar-winning performance as Nina, the dancer whose obsession with finding her inner Black Swan affects her physically and mentally. Elsewhere, Mila Kunis and Barbara Hershey also impress.
Highly recommended.
