Panda and I went to the movies on Sunday, to see Black Swan.
How cool and art deco-y is this poster?
I'm not going to spoil this movie for you, as I really recommend going to see it. It's dark, at times disturbing, and intensely gripping. The way the story builds and pulls you in reminds me of the well-crafted psychological thrillers of days gone by (think Rosemary's Baby.)
And it's beautiful. Immersing us in the dance world, the film is heavily doused in whites, blacks and baby pinks. The story takes place largely on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, a place where I've spent a great deal of time. Could this story have been playing out while I studied and goofed off across the street? Definitely added to the creepy factor for me.
If you're a fan of dark thrillers, I absolutely recommend seeing this.
