Today I watched the "Black Swan", which is a 2010 American psychological thriller film directed by Darren Aronofsky and starring Natalie Portman. A ballet dancer wins the lead in "Swan Lake" and is perfect for the role of the delicate White Swan - Princess Odette - but slowly loses her mind as she becomes more and more like Odile, the Black Swan. In this movie, I first heard the whole story of "The Swan Lake". Virginal girl, pure and sweet, trapped in the body of a swan. She desires freedom that only true love can break the spell. Her wish is nearly granted in the form of a Prince. But before he can declare his love, the lustful twin, the Black Swan, tricks and seduces him. Devastated, the White Swan leaps off a cliff, killing herself. And in death finds freedom. I really love this story and the ballet performed in this movie. Natalie also won

Actress for her role
