Natalie Portman, light and dark, black and white swan

Rating: 9/10 (13 February 2011)

The art world is a challenge. The overall scenery put on for this particular film, the theme is too strong for the lighthearted.
At the beginning you get the impression that Nina will probably be second to another dancer. This changes when she puts the director of the ballet in is place. And suddenly, she's the top dancer with all that implies.
This proves completely that personalities have dark and light sides. The first act is a disaster and this proves now to a challenge. In a battle of positive and negative, in a show of light and dark, you get involved. And for the final performance, you get the impression that someone dies, but then the ballet dancer kills her dark side and ends apparently bleeding perfection.
Strongly recommend this film, if you want to leave the theatre with awe and disbelief.
