Great Black Swan Interview

I came across this great interview on Charlie Rose featuring director Darren Aronofsky and Natalie Portman, talking about Black Swan. This is a movie I'm really excited about, especially considering Aronofsky's most recent work The Wrestler. (The fact that its limited release on Dec 3 didn't include Philadelphia is hugely frustrating to me). Both Portman and Aronofsky are hugely talented and extremely intelligent, which makes this interview an insightful look into the themes within the movie and where they were derived from. Especially interesting to me was Portman's interest in ballet, due to its alignment with visual representation of emotion, which ties in nicely with the way film functions.

Black Swan gets a broader release on December 10th and a wide release on December 22nd.
