15th Anniversary Screening!
Synopsis
Striving for perfection proves harrowing when a young and talented ballerina (Natalie Portman) is next in line to be principal dancer in the company production of Swan Lake. In her pursuit of the lead, she meets her competition (Mila Kunis), who is her reflection in almost every way—with the exception of her inhibitions.
Details
Paid in Sweat’s ballet series comes to an end with the 15th Anniversary of Black Swan. We are deep into spooky season and November is the extra creepy, extra dreary month. It’s the perfect time to watch this dark masterpiece and lean further into the horror of the season. Darren Aronovsky sets a relentless pace, and presents the effort, sweat, grime and pain of these artistic athletes and their determination through mirrors and metaphor. We can get cozy through the terror. See you at the movies. (VANYA GARRAWAY)
