I can not imagine what to expect when I go to face a new film from Darren Aronofsky (Requiem for a Dream, The Wrestler). With just five features above, the man showed us the diversity of proposals that can be handled (and stick to the angle well, which is lower), while maintaining an obsessive attention to aesthetics and imagery when counting story. The common denominator in the diverse universe of Aronofsky is an obsession, perhaps a reflection of the obsession of director (cliché, I know, but in this case I think is true) when forming their movies, maybe not much, but it is undeniable that the principal characters in this move in their stories promoted by some form of obsession, and Black Swan is no exception to that rule.

Sayers Nina (Natalie Portman in a performance that makes me doubt that she and the actress from the Star Wars prequels are the same person) is a dancer from the pile in the corps de ballet of New York until the director Thomas Leroy (Vincent Cassel) selects for the lead role in its free version of "Swan Lake", in which both the role of Princess Odette (White Swan) and of Odile (Black Swan) are interpreted by the same dancer. Leroy credited to Nina that's perfect for the role of Queen of the Swans, but lacks the passion and sensuality that takes to the role of the Black Swan. With this starting point to begin your trip obsessive Nina to achieve perfection in his performance as a Black Swan. Aronofsky knows Nina's obsession and the journey must be done, and excellently staged, using all resources at hand and especially Portman, which loads the film practically alone. Underlying (or rather, support) is great performance, resources appear stylistic director chooses to demonstrate this process of transformation. The use of mirrors and flat-countershot relevant generating own reflection of the actress in it, accompanied by the use obvious (though not so obvious or excessive) of white and black in sets, costumes and makeup help us to enter the "liberation" of Nina, and subtlety, without realizing it, in his own mind, as Portman's metamorphosis occurs in the plane of reality as the unconscious.
Far from falling into the cliches of the psychological thriller, Aronofsky takes us into the character at that point to attend the proceedings as spectators, never mind understand what happens in reality and what happens in the mind of the child herself, although there anyway and audio visual cues to decipher. If you ask me could even discuss if the character of Lily (Mila Kunis, excellent in the role) is simply the rival who personifies everything that Nina must reach to become the Black Swan, or other internal manifestation of the psyche of the character. The director adds even more layers to the reflection on the transformation extrapolating the dynamics of the ballet, in contrast to the harmony of the dance scenes with grotesque closeups that show the physical damage Portman is getting (or inflicts).
I will not delve further into the plot or details that might reveal too much information, it is the intention of the blog, but yes I would highly recommend this movie. Excellence Aronofsky directs a drama that turns into thriller (for tense moments of pure horror film), looking like its protagonist, perfection in every shot, every sequence, and it succeeds greatly.
If I learn one day to put a system of stars will do in the meantime I'll stick with the good old

Well, fine. Last day of January generally means two things children: the first is that tomorrow I have to return to work. The second, which is ultimately the only one of the two that makes the content of this blog is to circulate these days by the tortuous path of the awards, were presented last night Screen Actors Guild Awards, a week ago and the Golden Globe in exactly one month the Oscar.

Far from arming pads, this is a serious blog (or is going to be until I get my first review of film), I will devote this month to discuss the various films that the Academy (not nominate a best-director Christopher Nolan does not deserve the capital) nominated "best film 2010" . That is, I will devote myself to discuss the following films during February:

Black Swan
The Fighter
Inception
The Kids Are Alright
The King´s Speech
127 Hours
The Social Network
Toy Story 3
True Grit
Winter's Bone

later today I start with Black Swan ... yes, the fan of Clint Eastwood, Bruce Willis and Stallone started talking about feedback cycle on a film of ballet dancers ...

How To Straighten Hair Without Spoiling It

workplan aaacción

withdrawal Ok ... my facebook me back a lot of things missed (time to read, a private life, etc ...) but is something that took place that gave me to to comment on movies that no one ever read. This blog will take then, from now on (that is, until I get bored using it) that space. Figuratively and literally, then, what makes this new gimmick is basically taking up space, but I promise to try to occupy the more worthy than me out.


Anyone who has paid attention to both the address and the title of the blog will have noticed the clear film references that contain (I hope no one has problems in recognizing them) making it clear that this is a film and basically blog there I shall write FILM (again, old, independent, Hollywood, European, that I like, I do not like, classic, unknown, whatever comes ...) but do not rule out occasionally use it to discuss something else, books, music, tv, comics ... I hope to entertain those who read it. As I write to amuse myself and basically I have no assurances that any other player appears in that sense I think I have covered the target, but perhaps people will fall to the dance: thanks for reading ... they are a wonderful audience ..
