ALL THAT JAZZ (1979)

Certification15 Our Rating

The story of a Broadway choreographer under such pressure to be top of the Bill that success could cost him his life. A film that is really a meditation on love, life, death and personal priorities. The real standout is the vibrant editing and music - long before MTV coopted the fast and loose cutting styles that make it hard to focus, Fosse put it to good use. He doesn't just cut for shock value, he cuts WITH the music, creating images that go right into your inner rhythm somehow. Brilliant ent find out more...

Set during the miners strike, Billy is the 11 year old son of a widowed miner who stumbles across a ballet class one day on the way to his boxing lesson. The young boy becomes hooked, and while keeping his new found passion secret from his family, Billy's raw talent is noticed by the dance teacher, who encourages him to audition for the Royal ballet.

BLACK SWAN (2010)

Certification12 Our Rating

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 strives to subsume, at the behest of the director, the personality of the Black Swan, Odile. Once again Aronovsky returns to his familiar themes of obsession and addiction (see also 'Requiem For A Dream', 'Pi' and 'The Wrestler') and has created an enigmatic and frustrating film. Audiences have been divided over the degree of success he achieve find out more...
