Black Swan - rok - 08-21-2009
The next Aronofsky film didn't really interest me until this bit from the script leaked. Unless some studio hack steps in and starts cutting out scenes, including this one, I need to see this movie.

<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->There’s a review of Mark Heyman’s script for Black Swan, soon to be a Darren Aronofsky film starring Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis, over at ScriptShadow. There’s a lot of detail there and some good analysis, but the piece opens with a huge bit of salesmanship that will likely get at least half our readers interested in the film really, really fast: <b>“in this movie, Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis have sex…And not just nice sweet innocent sex either. We’re talking ecstasy-induced hungry aggressive angry sex.”</b> Does that make all you puerile bastards more interested in a movie about ballerinas? Yeah, I thought so. More after the break.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

It could turn into Showgirls with a supernatural edge to it.

i enjoyed parts of "showgirls."

I've enjoyed everything Aaronofsky has done so far. I'm going to assume this one will be good until I see evidence to the contrary.

It also kind of sounds a little bit like Suspiria, without some of the corny horror elements, and I would guess this is partly what attracted Aronofsky to it.

Things like that never end up actually being as over the top as described. The scene, I mean. Not the flick.

This still has promise, but I am sort of unimpressed with the trailer, as I am with most over-edited trailers these days. Reminds me of Suspiria mixed in with some of Polanski's The Tenant.

After seeing the trailer - Agree with Tom

I think that looks pretty good.

Saw this tonight. It was excellent, and surprisingly the erotic scene involving Portman and Kunis actually didn't disappoint. Hopefully it gets a wide release, because the audience loved it as well. That is all I will say.
4.5/5 stars.
Black Swan - Butcher - 12-06-2010
I'm seeing it tonight. Can't wait...

This is a little off topic but it's Mila Kunis. Also, it may be a little NSFW-ish. Gentlemen, start your boners....

Natalie Portman definitely deserves Oscar consideration. I still think the lead from Winter's Bone should probably take home the Best Actress Oscar, but Portman should get a nomination. She clearly poured everything she had into the role. I like the movie a lot, but it didn't have quite the same visceral impact that Requiem had. That's not necessarily a criticism because very few movies have the same visceral impact of Requiem...
It was actually very similar in a lot of ways to The Wrestler, thematically. But Natalie Portman is a lot more fun to look at for 2 hours than Mickey Rourke.
