Black Swan

Black Swan is a film released at the end of 2010. It revolves around Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake ballet. Nina Sayers, portrayed by Natalie Portman, is a ballerina dancing with a prestigious New York Ballet company. She lives with her overbearing mother Erica, a failed dancer turned amateur artist, who tries to control much of Nina's life.

This is one of few films I've watched in my life that embodies the thriller part of a psychological thriller. It is amazing that by just adding hallucinations to the story line the film was made a hundred times better. I hope to see more of these kind of films throughout the year.

Rating 9/10
