Black Swan totally blew me away!
I was drawn into the movie from the moment I started watching it till the end, it was absolutely an intriguing and breathtaking piece from the director Darren Aronofsky, and of course the lead Natalie Portman who plays Nina Sayers the ballerina who obsessed for perfection.
Natalie Portman done well in presenting us a timid, naive, innocent Nina . Nina is afraid of everything and she's working hard on controlling herself so that she could be perfect in other's eyes. However Thomas (Cassel) the show director expects more from Nina, besides playing the pure and naive White Swan, he was worried with Nina incapable of handling the dangerous and seductive Black Swan. Nina is his first choice of playing the Swan Queen, but not the only choice.I seriously think that Vincent Cassel delivers Thomas's character very well. Those eyes, desires, strong, complex feeling he have for Nina, the way he cultivate her, and how cherish he was when Nina complete the show perfectly. I must say, Vincent Cassel is really doing very good! I love his sexy accent!
Not to mention Nina's controlling mother Erica. Under the repression of Erica, who gave up her ballet career and put her whole efforts on educating her daughter, Nina begins to experiences some hallucinations, causing by her obsession and pushing herself too much to perfecting the role.
Well, some part of the "hallucinations" left me wandering whether it is real or simply hallucinations. Some moments are pretty "painful" to watch, in another word---"terrifying". Certainly not a movie that I would like to watch repeatedly. (Doesn't mean it is not good, the movie is beautiful!)
I would say Black Swan is a horror movie to me rather than calling it as the psychological triller. Watch it and you'll know what I mean.
Obsession leads to perfection? or destruction?
Nina finally transform into the Swan Queen that she longs to, she wons applause and praise of the audiences at the end of the show. She did it, and she paid the price of perfection and beauty in return.
It is breathless to watch the climax part, so beautiful yet so cruel. The spinning and the transformation is so stirring and despair, Nina dance like she never was. She embraces the Black Swan.
Overall, the movie is a beautiful and gorgeous piece. Like Nina says, it was perfect.
Highly recommended.
