@bajillionballet15: Natalie has never said she danced all the parts. In fact, she did compliment her double in several interviews. Also, Natalie was classically trained in ballet for several years when she was younger. Her first go at ballet was long before Black Swan. I think she did an amazing job of making me believe she was a ballerina, not an actress.
@Peppepoppldoppl No. I just don't care about ethnic or religious backgrounds of people. I think she is a good actress and she is smart and pretty, and I really don't care if she's Jewish.
@Peppepoppldoppl Alright now I know your screwing with me. Are you one of those undercover non-trolls just trying to get funny reactions out of people? if so, nice job.
@Peppepoppldoppl It's a fact that I'm not muslim.I'm anti-muslim,like many other albanians! Albania is the oldest nation in Europe,with the oldest language,and protector of Europe from the Ottoman invasion.What about your country?The little fanatic whore of the Nordic area!
It's a fact that you are sick,and jewish people are much better than you! You are a big..nothing!
@Rina25tir Wrong, Albania is not a European country. Albania is an ANALBANIAN country. You didn't "defend" Europe, the Slavic Europeans did. You defended your little shitstain called Albania.
It's a pity that the Ottoman Empire didn't crush Analbania completely and eradicate it's population, then we would have an easier time without Analbanian trash. Also, do not take pride in boasting about the assets achieved by MEN. You are a WOMAN, and you are from ANALBANIA.
@Peppepoppldoppl It's not true that jewish ppl hate Albania.we've protected Jewish in our country during WW2,and they have helped Kosovars during Kosovo war.
Albania is already in NATO. And it will be in EU after it reaches the european standards.We are not Turkey.
You should control this big hate inside of you.Islam is our enemy,not jewish people.
@Rina25tir Lol no, Jewish people hate Albania. You are only in NATO because you want to be safe with a couple of others. Typical MUSLIM behaviour. Without NATO you would belong to Serbia.
@Rina25tir Don't you remember that you are the muslim?
Never did i utter a word about Turkey you filthy islamic scum. Turkey and Analbania are both collusion with each other. Both like Islam and will follow until their death. Fuck off from the continent of Europe, because you are muslim scum.
i used to like her sooooo much. when i first saw Mars attack, i was like who is that hotty? but now....i dunno. She kind of annoys me and comes off as all high and mighty. Maybe its just the hormones from her pregnancy? haha.
I would just like to say, Natile did NOT do the dancing you thought she did. It was Sarah Lane. It does not take a year and a half to dance like a professional ballerina. I am not trying to bash on Natilie she is a wonderful actress, but it is degrading to every ballet dancer out there working hard non stop for years. All I'm saying is, Ballet dancers work much harder than you think. Natalie did not dance. sorry.
@bajillionballet15 Its true that Nathalie, didn't dance all the parts, but she did dance most of it, it's just the hardest parts, that she had a doublette to do, but she really has gotten good during just one year
Harvard-educated? Really? If she would stop saying 'You know' every 5 seconds she would sound more articulate. Look at this video youtube.com/watch?v=Z2ZDiyTlOr0 - Tom Hiddleston, her co-star in Thor - a less popular actor but more eloquent than she is.
Intelligence, classic beauty, class, kindness- These are the true elements in a lady, and natalie has them all. I adore her so much. Natalie Portman = True love
Yes, the dancing was visually stunning, but on the whole, what really sold me was the acting alone. If the story had been given a different backdrop, I think the story would have been just as effective because it was brought forth beautifully from each actor. While I always liked Natalie as a person, I didn't become a huge fan until this film. She just took my breath away.
She embodies the absolute perfect woman. Extremely talented, intelligent, dedicated, beautiful and well-mannered. A perfect role model and an inspiration to all...
@benjiimaster actually she's not very bright. That's strange because she's jewish. There was very pathetic moment in Behind the actors studio ,with her because of that.
Her parents sound great, there are so many parents in hollywood who just want to make money from their children's success these days it's nice to hear that her parents just supported her and didn't push her into being an actress. I really hate pushy parents!
"I mean, there's no way, obviously, I could have learned, you know, fouette turns en pointe for the film. That's something that takes a lifetime to perfect.
So there's a wonderful dancer, Sarah Lane, who did the more complicated pointe work. But I did the stuff that was possible to learn in a year."
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i loved the movie but will always look down on Portman. She took credit that she didn't deserve.The dancer who actually performed all of portmans scenes is named Sarah Lane. She has been practicing ballet for 20 years to perfect her craft.Instead of being gracious and giving credit where its do,portman showed how low class and devoid of character she apparently is.
@ThereYouGoGirl quite simple really natalie need to play the white (good) and black(bad) swan, now she's perfect for the white swan, but has trouble with the black swan, but mila kunis is perfect for the black swan. so she struggle to get it and whatnot.
@EnvelTheTrader yeaa i understand tht part, but why in the world does she go so crazy? because shes under pressure from the role or because its a result to her trying to be so perfect?
@ThereYouGoGirl There are actually quite a few messages in the film. Important ones being the transformations of people's personalities as they move into the spotlight and the pressure of fame/performing. It is a reflection of show business. How it doesn't care about the people (Nina), the only thing that matters is a perfect show. It is this quest for perfection that causes Nina to lose her mind. there are other themes too. Look up Roger Ebert's interpretation for more information.
@FyreBalletDancer Natalie is more than a ballerina in this film she plays a deeply disturbed and mental unstable young woman ! Of course Nina's character is implausible no one can sprout wings and no ballerina has the level of psychological problems (i hope anyway) as Nina does, but that is what cinema does it takes a streotype and exaggerates it to the extreme and Natalie portrayed Nina's brilliantly!
@Analeigh999 i meant implausible OUTSIDE of the sci-fi elements. for ex. i find that Harry Potter is a plausible character in the sence that his personnality and actions are believable according to what he has lived, psychologically speaking, it's possible that someone acts the way he does according to his upbringing etc. but Nina's character is not plausible as a dancer (outside of the hallucinations). i agree NP played amazingly i never said the opposite
@Analeigh999 and i dont think it's so great that cinema uses stereotypes and exaggerates them ... if they had made a movie about some jew that is super rich and selfish (and other stereotypes) you would have seen a whole community scream the heads off about racism, and i think they would've been right ! so i think it's normal for some ballet dancers to have problems with this movie and the images it gives ... -peace out-
Movies are made to be appreciated and to take you on an 'emotional journey'. Why people are criticizing Natalie Portmans private life is beyond me. Why should she talk about her life if she doesn't want t? And the comment 'maybe her life isn't so perfect as she makes out' Reality check...nobodys life is perfect!
Regarding the 'stunt double' Being a stunt double in movies is just that, the anonymity goes with it, it's a job that the person gets paid for, and she was paid to dance FOR Natalie P.
@travellingtale Stunt doubles leap from burning buildings, yes? I'm hurrying to catch a performance of a famous stunt action thing - I think tonight's stunts centre around a girl who is betrayed by a Prince & who loses her mind. She dies & she & lots of other dead, jilted girls are supposed to stunt him to death. Don't remember too many burning buildings, exploding cars etc in Giselle - some ballet bits tho, which don't take long to perfect as NP can testify. Surprised she needed stuntwoman.
@travellingtale I agree with you, that's the life that the stunt doubles chose, and I have a lot of respect for them. But please, why can't they just enjoy the movie without all the bitching. Black Swan is a great movie. So what if they used stunt doubles.
@1989blindside Let's try a little role-reversal. Imagine in a live classical ballet performance an actress comes on to say some relevant lines of, say Shakespeare, that only a 'real' actress could do! Imagine it was NP & she was credited only as 'Hand double/lady who walks on/STUNT double - and then even more marginalised after the performance as if her contribution, altho' actually vital, was meaningless. Do you think the acting profession would get a bit pissy?
@travellingtale the whole "stund double" thing is not about who much recognition Sarah got or if she got paid for ir or whatever, it's about people being sick and tired of Hollywood LYING to us and INSULTING people ... that's it
@travellingtale the whole "stund double" thing is not about who much recognition Sarah got or if she got paid for ir or whatever, it's about people being sick and tired of Hollywood LYING to us and INSULTING people ... that's it
@Justasimpleservant74 Yup, that's why I'm recommending my young students pack it in now and return to it much later in life,and just train for 18 months! Must hold down a part-time job too, to mimic NP working on 2 films simultaneously! Will save a lot of blood sweat and tears, not to mention money! Pointe shoes are so expensive these days! Oh, I'm talking myself out of a teaching job! lol
I wonder why she keeps her private life so secret, even to all of her fans. I wonder if her life is as seemingly perfect as she makes it to appear like in the public eye. In all honesty, I know nothing about her besides how she is in movies, interviews and pictures. Otherwise, I get a very one-sided view about her.
Ummm.... she studied ballet, but that doesn't make her a ballerina. If you really watch her in the film and take out the parts that her stunt double did that they put her head on, she's really just an amateur nothing to write home about. They did a good job just filming her upper body and face throughout the movie to hide her not so great dancing.
@fartknocker0308 NP did MOVES - Not the same as DANCING. Poor creature couldn't even waddle on as BSwan in POINTE shoes, wears FLAT ballet shoes children wear every time she 'moves' as the prima ballerina. Bloody farcical - was this the result of all that training? Yeah, right. Anyone off the street can learn those moves in no time at all. Did DA mean her flapping 'ballet' bits to be a spoof? If so, sure worked! Scary? Dramatic? Only if you are 5 years old. 12 hrs a day - give us abreak!
Natalie Portman is a home wrecker. Don't believe me? Just ask Isabella Boylston, Benjamin Millepied ex long term girlfriend. Or even ask Robin Wright, Sean Penn's ex wife. Natalie Portman clearly isn't the innocent princess that she makes herself out to be. I wonder what these women have to say about her. Luckily, what goes around, come around. Looking at pictures of Natalie Portman lately, she doesn't look happy being pregnant or even engaged, despite claiming to be "indescriably happy."

wow natalie, so hot. its just really unfortunate that shes a devoted JEW. i heard she wanted her kids to go to isreal so they could feel more jewish. it just breaks my heart to see such a beautiful woman be so infested with judaism
@TheeOneWhoTalks She said in an interview that she didn't believe in an afterlife. She has Jewish ancestry and was indeed born in Israel, but I don't think she's a practicing Jew.

Movies are made to be appreciated and to take you on an 'emotional journey'. Why people are criticizing Natalie Portmans private life is beyond me. Why should she talk about her life if she doesn't want t? And the comment 'maybe her life isn't so perfect as she makes out' Reality check...nobodys life is perfect!
Regarding the 'stunt double' Being a stunt double in movies is just that, the anonymity goes with it, it's a job that the person gets paid for, and she was paid to dance FOR Natalie P.

@travellingtale Stunt doubles leap from burning buildings, yes? I'm hurrying to catch a performance of a famous stunt action thing - I think tonight's stunts centre around a girl who is betrayed by a Prince & who loses her mind. She dies & she & lots of other dead, jilted girls are supposed to stunt him to death. Don't remember too many burning buildings, exploding cars etc in Giselle - some ballet bits tho, which don't take long to perfect as NP can testify. Surprised she needed stuntwoman.

@travellingtale I agree with you, that's the life that the stunt doubles chose, and I have a lot of respect for them. But please, why can't they just enjoy the movie without all the bitching. Black Swan is a great movie. So what if they used stunt doubles.

@1989blindside Let's try a little role-reversal. Imagine in a live classical ballet performance an actress comes on to say some relevant lines of, say Shakespeare, that only a 'real' actress could do! Imagine it was NP & she was credited only as 'Hand double/lady who walks on/STUNT double - and then even more marginalised after the performance as if her contribution, altho' actually vital, was meaningless. Do you think the acting profession would get a bit pissy?
MrKLT1945 10 months ago
@travellingtale the whole "stund double" thing is not about who much recognition Sarah got or if she got paid for ir or whatever, it's about people being sick and tired of Hollywood LYING to us and INSULTING people ... that's it

0:33 love seeing that done to Natalie by a guy. Wish it would of went longer. I'd do the same thing to her. She is very pretty.

Justasimpleservant74 10 months ago
@Justasimpleservant74 Yup, that's why I'm recommending my young students pack it in now and return to it much later in life,and just train for 18 months! Must hold down a part-time job too, to mimic NP working on 2 films simultaneously! Will save a lot of blood sweat and tears, not to mention money! Pointe shoes are so expensive these days! Oh, I'm talking myself out of a teaching job! lol

I wonder why she keeps her private life so secret, even to all of her fans. I wonder if her life is as seemingly perfect as she makes it to appear like in the public eye. In all honesty, I know nothing about her besides how she is in movies, interviews and pictures. Otherwise, I get a very one-sided view about her.

Ummm.... she studied ballet, but that doesn't make her a ballerina. If you really watch her in the film and take out the parts that her stunt double did that they put her head on, she's really just an amateur nothing to write home about. They did a good job just filming her upper body and face throughout the movie to hide her not so great dancing.

Natalie Portman is a Harvard Alumni.
Yes she did all those dances and went through months of vigorous training 6 days a week for 12 hours starting from 5:30 along with filming etc.
She is very intelligent along with beautiful some things that not every actor has is the education.
She's great and well rounded.
so to everyone. shes not fake. shes great.
im just tired of reading these retarded post about peoples assumptions about her being atheist etc. get your facts straight first.

@fartknocker0308 The bottom line: Sarah Lane is the prima ballerina who made this film while Natalie contributed the face and acting talent.

@fartknocker0308 NP did MOVES - Not the same as DANCING. Poor creature couldn't even waddle on as BSwan in POINTE shoes, wears FLAT ballet shoes children wear every time she 'moves' as the prima ballerina. Bloody farcical - was this the result of all that training? Yeah, right. Anyone off the street can learn those moves in no time at all. Did DA mean her flapping 'ballet' bits to be a spoof? If so, sure worked! Scary? Dramatic? Only if you are 5 years old. 12 hrs a day - give us abreak!

Natalie Portman is a home wrecker. Don't believe me? Just ask Isabella Boylston, Benjamin Millepied ex long term girlfriend. Or even ask Robin Wright, Sean Penn's ex wife. Natalie Portman clearly isn't the innocent princess that she makes herself out to be. I wonder what these women have to say about her. Luckily, what goes around, come around. Looking at pictures of Natalie Portman lately, she doesn't look happy being pregnant or even engaged, despite claiming to be "indescriably happy."

wow natalie, so hot. its just really unfortunate that shes a devoted JEW. i heard she wanted her kids to go to isreal so they could feel more jewish. it just breaks my heart to see such a beautiful woman be so infested with judaism
