Black Swan
“I had the craziest dream last night about a girl who has turned into a swan, but her prince falls for the wrong girl and she kills herself.”
The movie Black Swan directed by Darren Aronofsky and written by Andres Heinz, is a about the story of a girl called Nina, which dances ballet in a company for many years and she finally has the opportunity to be the protagonist of the play “Swan Lake” but there is something that limit her to be perfect for that part, and perfect is what she always tried to be. In this play she needs to dance the White Swan, what she does perfectly, but she also needs to dance the Black Swan, which is very difficult to her, not because she doesn’t do the right dance moves but because she tries to do the moves perfectly and the Black Swan is not perfect. The teacher kept telling her “lose yourself”, so she could release the Black Swan that is trapped inside her but she can’t do it easily and painless.
The whole movie is about that, about her metamorphose from being a sweat and innocent White Swan to a free and audacious Black Swan. The metamorphose is really painful and scary for both spectators and character. That’s because she doesn’t want to become the Black Swan but at the same time she tries to act like one; it is like when you open the door for someone but you don’t let him out, and this person starts to push harder and harder to get out. That’s what she does. Nina starts to have hallucinations. And she believes that the person in does hallucinations is a girl who tries to be her friend but Nina didn’t let her because she was the perfect one to be the Black Swan after her. With that she starts seeing the girl in the hallucinations and to become paranoid about her, thinking she wants to still her part of the play. When the girl actually is supporting her and is amused about how Nina dances amazingly.
At the end before she dance the Black Swan part she has another hallucination in which she supposedly kill the other girl so she can dance the Black Swan, but Nina actually kill her White Swan, and release her Black Swan by doing that. She dances the Black Swan, everyone is amused, and then she goes back to the White Swan to dance the last part of the play: when the White Swan commits suicide because her true love doesn’t love her. She finishes the play perfectly and the White Swan dies.
Many people say she actually die, but I personally disagree. I am sure she survives because the whole movie is about Nina and her “conscience”. In the movie you can how she is control by the mother and how the mother doesn’t let her grow and live through her. So when she finally dies in the end, she doesn’t actually die; just the White Swan does, and with that she release herself from her mother and grows as the Black Swan. The movie, in my opinion is great, but I wouldn’t recommend it because it is extremely heavy, and I don’t get very emotional with movies and this time I was just in shock. It is worth watching it, but if you will need to be prepared, it’s not an easy movie and many people didn’t like it, especially because it is hard to understand exactly what is going on, if it is reality or her mind.
