So I’ve been aching to see Black Swan since teasers first started to pop up around the web several months back. I waited patiently throughout the limited release (Miami was not included) but I could no longer wait when it was finally open nationwide. The hubs and I decided to have a date night, stopping at The Pasta Factory first for dinner (yums) and then headed to the theater. Wowza. I thought the flick was amazing – I especially loved the way it was filmed: so raw and gritty. Natalie Portman was spectacular. She really embodied the role of what I believe was a paranoid schizophrenic hell bent on being perfect at her craft. So hell bent that she embodied her character, in some pretty interesting ways. As my husband put it, this movie is not for everyone as it can get pretty intense, but I think it was truly a work of art.
