Black Swan (2010)

Genre: Drama

Director Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan is one of the finest movies I have seen after Requiem for a Dream. Its Intense, disturbing and shocking personal tragedies like the one shown in Requiem for a Dream which was more disturbing and nightmare for many of the viewers.Natalie Portman as Nina is decent , committed and disciplined Ballet dancer in Company. She has trained for months and in many years she has been in Ballet dancer. She is working her ass off to be the Character of Swan Queen for which she needs to play dual character of White Swan and the Black Swan which is offered by her director who wants a new face for the new Season of his show.Nina has the proper character of White Swan as her character , but she fails to portray the character of Black Swan which is a darker part.

She has competition for her role in Swan queen played by Mila Kunis as Lily who is perfect and shows more feelings than Nina in the character. Darren’s Swan played by Natalie is a shear ideal character.Her Metamorphosis from White Swan to Black Swan is really heart wrenching which is driven by hallucinations, jealousy and personal relationship failure with her mother. Nina is perfect but her definition for perfection shows up when she has performed the dark part so well that she puts her relationships in jeopardy. Her Hallucinations give her a bad time.Her diligent mother witnesses how her sweet little daughter has turned out to be a hostile at the climax. I have to say, Natalie Portman is undoubtedly this year’s Best Actress award.Performances from supporting actors like Lily and Thomas are also mind blowing. Brilliant Piano Background score from Clint Mansell . This Movie is undoubtedly a Gem. MUST WATCH .

Rating: 4/5- Very Good
