Črni labod

Slovenski opis filma:

V psihološkem trilerju, umeščenem na newyorški baletni oder, Natalie Portman igra plesalko Nino, ki se zaplete v mučen psihološki boj s tekmico (Mila Kunis) za glavno vlogo baletne predstave.Zgodba Črnega laboda spremlja Nino (Natalie Portman), plesalko newyorške baletne šole, katere vse življenje - tako kot pri njenih soplesalkah - je v celoti podrejeno odrski predstavi. Nina živi sama z mamo (Barbara Hershey), nekdanjo baletko, ki močno podpira poklicne ambicije svoje hčere. Ko se umetniški direktor Thomas Leroy (Vincent Cassel) v novi sezoni Labodjega jezera odloči zamenjati primobalerino Beth MacIntyre (Winona Ryder), je Nina prva v vrsti pretendentk za glavno vlogo. Vendar kmalu dobi tekmico, novo plesalko Lily (Mila Kunis), ki prav tako navduši Leroya. Predstava zahteva baletko, ki je zmožna odplesati dvojni lik: nedolžnega in elegantnega Belega laboda ter čutnega in zapeljivega Črnega laboda. Medtem ko je Nina idealna za belo polovico, je Lily poosebljenje njene črne plati. Tekmici se zapleteta v izkrivljeno prijateljstvo, Nina pa je čedalje bližje svoji temačni podobi, ki grozi, da jo bo slednjič uničila.

Originalni opis filma:

Nina (Portman) is a ballerina in a New York City ballet company whose life, like all those in her profession, is completely consumed with dance. She lives with her obsessive former ballerina mother Erica (Hershey) who exerts a suffocating control over her. When artistic director Thomas Leroy (Cassel) decides to replace prima ballerina Beth MacIntyre (Ryder) for the opening production of their new season, Swan Lake, Nina is his first choice. But Nina has competition: a new dancer, Lily (Kunis), who impresses Leroy as well. Swan Lake requires a dancer who can play both the White Swan with innocence and grace, and the Black Swan, who represents guile and sensuality. Nina fits the White Swan role perfectly but Lily is the personification of the Black Swan. As the two young dancers expand their rivalry into a twisted friendship, Nina begins to get more in touch with her dark side - a recklessness that threatens to destroy her.
