About this product

Product Information

New York City ballet dancer Nina (Natalie Portman) enters into an intense battle of wills with a talented and ambitious new arrival (Mila Kunis) who seems intent on edging her out of the spotlight in this supernatural-flavored psychological thriller from director Darren Aronofsky. Nina covets the role of the Swan Queen in a production of Swan Lake by acclaimed theater director Thomas Leroy (Vincent Cassel). The harder Nina works to win the part, however, the more overwhelmed she becomes by her suspicions that talented newcomer Lily (Kunis) is intent on stealing it away from her. As the production draws near and Nina struggles to master the duel roles of the White Swan and the Black Swan, she grows increasingly unstable to the point where she finds it difficult to distinguish fantasy from reality. Though her burgeoning friendship with the unconventional Lily helps Nina to jettison her perfectionist instincts and find her footing as the Black Swan, the closer she gets to perfecting the role, the further her sanity erodes until she begins to experience a bizarre and profound transformation.

    Good psychological thriller movie!

    Good movie. Natalie Portman did a good job with this character. She earned the Oscar. They should of given credit to ABT soloists Sarah Lane. I don't know why they didn't do that. Most all dance movies give credits to the doubles. I felt like they were hiding the truth and made it look like Natalie Portman did all the dancing. They did it so she would get the Oscar. Natalie did not even acknowledged Sarah Lane. She said nothing. I feel her acting earned her the Oscar. There was nothing to hide. They insulted and disrespected all the ballet dancers that worked really hard for their love of ballet. Still a good psychological thriller.

    Ghastly Movie

    This movie is not made for the viewer; it is intended to win the praise of critics, who value quirky camera work above entertainment. The camera follows Natalie Portman's head around almost as if attached to it. Rarely is it more than about 12 inches' distant. Long or broad shots are rare in this film; I estimate not four minutes of the entire movie is other than a tight close-up, and it gets really tedious--actually oppressive. The only salvation is a bit of superb dancing (if you like ballet) and the wonderful score at the end with plenty of Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake." If you close your eyes, you can enjoy the soundtrack without the wretched experience of trying to see a movie where there is nothing but artsy camera trickery. I practically memorized every pore on Portman's face. She is pretty, to be sure, but I was soon tired of looking at her from a virtual distance of about 10 inches. I wanted to see more of Winona Ryder, but her role was vanishingly small. I plan to give away the DVD. It would be unconscionable to take money for it. Maybe the recycling bin is the place to put it. I have not seen such a visual disaster since "Pieces of April" some years back, which was similarly ruined by the relentless close-ups. What ails these so-called filmmakers?

  • Not for me

    It could have been a really good movie, however as most "modern" movies go there has to be gore, sex, profanity and girl on girl encounters. Please do not get me wrong I am not a prude but why does every movie and every movie star lend themselves to this kind of trash cinema?
