could sometimes imagine that he will falter or go astray but not Darren Aronofsky remains one of the greatest contemporary directors and Black Swan is its new masterpiece. Interfere his camera behind the scenes of New York City Ballet, he will explore the intimate drama of the quest for perfection, tu schizophrenia, self-mutilation, incest and erotic descent into hell of a dancer. The sweep across the genres with amazing dexterity: drama, thriller, horror, all mixed together, linked in a staged brilliant and fascinating that it would not go unscathed.
While the dancer Beth (Wynona Rider ) is thanked for his loyal service in the troupe, the choreographer Thomas Leroy (Vincent Cassel ) presents the new creation Ballet, Swan Lake. Auditions for the lead role of Queen of the Swans started. Nina (Natalie Portman ), ambitious dancer and a perfectionist, would do everything to become the dual swan, white and black. Unfortunately, his fragility, his innocence leave Thomas Leroy skeptical. He says it is unable to let go, to get lost and do happen from uncontrolled personality. Putting it in competition with Lilly ( Mila Kunis), a young dancer released and manipulative, he hopes to overcome her frigidity Nina expressive and become the black swan.
In Black Swan , Aronofsky revisits one of his favorite themes, that of the deconstruction of identity by the destruction body as in Requiem for a Dream which the characters sink into the router or torturing their bodies in where The Wrestler Rourke , the old wrestler, pushes the limits of endurance by winning events and masochistic punishment. Here, Nina, by his desire for perfection, she will also enter into a destructive circle. Insidiously, distilled with a view to multiple interpretations, the director troublemaker on the schizophrenic personality of its star dancer. Hallucinating or really being transformed, Nina becomes what is expected of her. She mutilates his body, cut his nails, the tears, vomit, and is locked up in his room as his box to watch the stranger in the mirror reflection. And as in the novel The Picture of Dorian Gray of Oscar Wilde, the issue is murderous or suicidal.
is simply amazing to witness such mastery, Aronofsky equals Shinning of that inspired Kubrick to evoke the madness and loss of bearings. It also approximates Lynch and Mulholland Drive in a love scene between Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis to the dramatic intensity much greater than that which united Naomi Watts and Laura Harring . If the atmosphere Black Swan has nothing to envy these two masterpieces, it is still Cronenberg that comes closest, of course, resuming the theme of metamorphosis of Kafka in this Fly , but also the split personality to the test in Dead Ringers and Spider , then close the wounds of those of Beth Holly Hunter in Crash . Sum of all these strange influences, a major component alone Black Swan enters the pantheon of cinema.
So we can certainly always blamed his mirror effects, ubiquitous, some scenes a bit predictable as those of the bathtub but his desire to stick closer to his actress, just phenomenal, in a scene makes his virtuoso partitions anecdotal. After a breathtaking visual crescendo and a demented narrative tension, Natalie Portman reached perfection, the research that her character with so much pain. Always on the edge, breaking it absorbs the excess of his role with amazing finesse. Grandiose scenes turns fast and indecent, the metamorphosis of the swan tumbled whipped successive sequence plan to get out of the nightclub, the fight in the dressing room. Everyone reached the summit.
Worn by a revamped music and Tchaikovsky's sublime , Black Swan is one of those rare movies that we want to see at the end credits, as wonderful as him each of the figures in this demonic dance involving human test of its own ambition.
