Natalie Portman As The Black Swan

I've always had a little crush on Natalie Portman... she seems like such a genuinely nice person, not to mention beautiful, smart and incredibly talented. 

Anyway, we went to see Black Swan last night, and this was definitely a new Natalie! The film was very dark, and eerie, and at one point I actually screamed out loud in the theatre (I'm not very good with thrillers!)... but Natalie was absolutely magnificent in her role as the self-tortured ballerina. So was Mila Kunis, actually.
I absolutely loved the costumes too. Dancers definitely know how to do ruffles, feathers, and gorgeous warm-up wear.
Have you seen the film? What did you think?

    I saw this movie...it was scary at times really dark and slightly depressing and sad but totally intriguing and the dancing was just beautiful! As was the entire movie, it was done rather artistically which is what I loved about it :)
    And Natalie was just awesome!

    It was so intense. I nearly had an anxiety attack, but I thought it was really well done.

    We just saw it last weekend as well, I LOVED it!! I have to admit, watching it on a hungover stomach made me more than queasy. I have the weakest tummy in the world anyway and there was a bit more grossness than I would've thought! But the costumes and outfits were amazing, both Natalie & Mila were stunning!
