Forget 127 Hours. BLACK SWAN is the movie of the season (at least until Tron & True Grit come out). It is breathtaking, horrifying, and bloody brilliant. Just like Inception, Nina(Natalie Portman)'s process of 'letting go' is undertaken on multiple levels - in her dance, in her relationships, in her mind, in the music and the very structure of the film itself. I couldn't open my eyes wide enough to take it all in.
127 Hours is a movie I could actually see myself making. Yet I could only ever dream of attempting a film like Black Swan.
