So I've watched the Black Swan.yepey! The movie completely made an impression on me. Everything was about search for beauty and perfection -the ideal-and the pressure that comes along with it(in this case? Imagination gone wrong.Twisted even).Why is there a longing for us human for beauty? A deep hunger for applause and approval? the "look at me I'm beautiful and perfect". But in this movie to reach the beautiful you must first experience the dark side of what it is to be fully human. Ive always thought purity and holiness is beauty. What if you let go of yourself...what if you give in to your desires and sexual wants and longing...what if there is no conscience. what if there is no feeling of what is good and right. What if you let go of everything you hold dear in life...like values and morality for instance? What if you just let go and be the Black Swan? Would life be really beautiful after that? Would not guilt and sin haunt you...And if your tainted, and have given in to your hearts content all what you thought is right, would life be beautiful then afterward? What is beauty for you? What is perfection? Can your heart be ever satisfied once you know how it is to be fully human? And what is being human? Is it letting go of your self control? What is it? What is it like to feel everything? Spinning and spinning and spinning... Ive asked God why. Why did He allow it to be so. Why did he open our mind to the knowledge of evil? If we are created for Him? And there is one answer He told me - So that you may know what I am not.
To be human is to feel the pain of life, the joy of living, the laughter, the smile, the rain, the sun, the trees, and the person next to you with open eyes. Never judging. That's what it is to be human. You are free to be anything. Yes freedom, to choose and not to choose. Life or death. Light or darkness. It is yours for the taking. Yes freedom. Is. Beautiful. And there is only one beauty in life i hold dear and aspire to - Freedom from fear...freedom from being concern of what others think of me...Holy Freedom., behold the beauty of God.
Comment: The movie was beautiful and the ending epic.
Fave quotes: "Go touch yourself."
" Im frightened but now its perfect."
Rate: 5 stars(thats my highest score)
Side comment:
The touch yourself thing scene was completely awkward but i still have the courage to watch it..no i wasnt frightened a bit. But when the lesbian thing came out i freaked out. ahahhaha had to skip it. The little chicken was completely frightened. Maybe next time.
It has a lot of scene where everything is just plain phychotic. Literally hurting yourself to cope with pressure. Is that some kind of disease? or just plain madness? Maybe i have to research on that.
Watching Natalie dance is like watching a bird flying...Oh ballerinas can be so enchanting.
Actors and actresses: Natalie Portman was completely believable. She has such a weak and sweet voice it fits the role for the White Swan completely. And her smile is lovely.She is indeed an actress(at least that is what i thought of what it was like to be an actress in every sense of the word). And that girl Mila Kunis has got such beautiful and seductive eyes each with different color. Yes she is naturally seductive. There is only a few celebrities that i find very seductive even when not trying to.
Fun part: The part where she was touching her self and wasnt fully aware that her mom was sitting at her side. The look on her face! Epic! The situation completely made me laugh! ahahaha
Awful part: All the bleeding thing. Especially the part Where she had imagined herself peeling off her skin on her finger. Ew that was really gross. My brain jump a little at the sight of it.
Realization: Movies can help you ponder and realize things. I just did. And that i never thought ballet could be that stressful. wew! The director Darren Aronofsky is something to be watched out for.
