Black Swan (2010) starring Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis. Ballerina (Portman) wins the role of the Swan Queen in "Swan Lake," but is told that she must develop her sensual side to effectively play the part of the Black Swan. Nina (the ballerina) turns out to be an unstable girl, and the pressure of preparing for the big break drives her around the bend. About halfway through this movie, I knew it couldn't have a happy ending, and it doesn't. If you're a ballet aficionado, you may get more out of this movie than I did. I found it disturbing to watch -- not a pleasant night of entertainment. The subtitles and closed captions are good. Grade: B
