Love this movie, even if I'm not too keen on the ending. It has some of the most gorgeous visuals. I wish movies were still done in Technicolor.
YES.
Love, love this movie!!
In fact I've talked about it some time ago in my blog, I remembered it with all this buzz about ballet ... it's so different and strong, and art direction is just beautiful.
Best technicolor ever! I love the opening titles so much.
jenni - i agree! technicolor is so awesome.

I totally agree with you regarding Black Swan. That was my first impression after seen the movie, it is a new version of Red Shoes ..... beautiful though !
Just to say that I really like your blog ! It's a huge way of inspiration for me ! Have a really happy new year 2011 and thank you for the reference ! I can't wait to see Black Swan, and now : Red Shoes !
