Black Swan

I knew I really wanted to see this movie but I was also nervous because I am a huge wimp and don't handle suspenseful/disturbing movies very well.  I always love the story lines but I prefer to watch this type of movie in my own home, in the middle of the day, with my finger very near the "pause" and "fast forward" buttons.  So anyway, I braved the theatre with La last night and all I had was my fleece to hide behind. 
I don't know that I can give the clearest review of this movie because it is so bizarre and leaves you wondering what was real and what was imagined.  With that said, I thought it was excellent and worth all of the hype.  Natalie Portman's character loses herself and her mind while trying to convince the Company's director that she is capable of portraying not only the White Swan, which comes naturally, but the Black Swan, as the lead role in the upcoming "Swan Lake" ballet.  The movie follows her visions, thoughts and dreams while trying to discover and release her inner-dark side.  I totally recommend seeing this!
