Black Swan (2010, Movie)

Black Swan is about Nina Sayers (Natalie Portman), an emotionally delicate dancer who wins the lead in a contemporary interpretation of Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake.  The new interpretation requires performances as both an innocent white swan and a dark, sinister black swan with equal acuity. Director Darren Aronofsky has created a bold, scary and daring film. It hits on all marks. It is not nice. It is not pleasant. It is beautiful.
