The Black Swan

When I was about five years old my mother decided she would take me and my older sister to see a ballet that was played in our town. This magical door that opened up to me showed me "The Swan Lake" by Tchaikovsky. However, it wasn't a classical version of this beautiful ballet but a modern version. Every swan was bald and even the male dancers were wearing tutus. The only one sticking out of the crowd was the prince with his golden curls and green outfit.

I was hooked, high as a kite, full of music and dance. Since then, I can't get enough of watching ballerinas tiptoe out on a huge stage carefully but still with a speed that amazes anyone who is lucky enough to catch a glimpse of it.

My great love to the fine art made me fly over the moon with excitement when I heard that C had got hold of "The Black Swan".

I've never seen a ballet movie like this ever before, the darkness, pain and suffering... Natalie Portman certainly makes the perfect swan. But my favourite is Mila Kunis. Seriously, how come I've never seen her in anything else except "That's 70's show" (which is a hillarious serie) and heard her doing the voice for Mel in "Family Guy"? Whoever it was that hid her should seriously reconsider his or her crime, Kunis is just AWSOME!

Anyways, not planning to reveal anything about the story, it's too stunning to read about. See it! But maybe at home first, I'm glad I didn't go to the cinema... Scary movie in big version. Death!
