Black Swan

First, the quibble: a little too-much shakey-vision here. Director Darren Aranofsky should know better than that. Perhaps he felt that kind of "style" was necessary to create the vision he wanted to present. Whatever went into his directorial decisions, Aranofsky did craft an atmospherically unique film, something that I must say is unlike any movie I've ever seen. It's a consistently compelling experience, with an ever-building intensity that keeps the viewer riveted to the presentation. It may not be everyone's cup of plié--disturbing imagery, graphic sex, some violence, insanity...and ballet--but the adventurous viewer will most certainly be rewarded.
