i hate that Jodi got in for her looks. she doesn't deserve to be there. gosh. i guess she is suppose to be the underdog or something. that's messed up, anyway. and Eva needs to tone it down before she gets kicked out.
I just feel so bad for Jody because she only got in by her looks not her skill and now getting flack from instructors and classmates/competition and somehow I favor her more than the rest of the characters... =/
Juliet reminds me of what I imagine my ballet teacher's ballet teacher was like. According to my teacher, HER teacher would call you "dear" if you were doing something wrong. She had the same teacher as Alan Foley (the Artistic Director of the Cork City Ballet), and he says it was a wonder that no one had the piano thrown at them! Thank God my teacher isn't as bad as hers- note that I said AS bad! Still, she's a good teacher, just as I'd imagine Juliet and my teacher's teacher were!
In the cygnets dance in Swan Lake at around 5:50, the second swan from the right was Sugar Plum Fairy (as a guest artist) in Ballet Minnesota's (which I used to be a part of) Nutcracker for like 10+ years; I was in it with her. She played Odette 2 years in a row with the same company too. She also taught a summer intensive class I took one summer.
I looove this movie, but one thing I don't get is Eva's attitude. I could picture someone like her being mean to Maureen or the other dancers, but I don't understand why Eva's so hateful to her teachers and Johnathan. You'd think she'd be nicer to the big bosses in the hope of getting a job, right?
@Quibbles2000 they can be a similar color, but don't ever call a dominican "black". my boyfriend is dominican and he get's really annoyed when ppl confuse his ethnicity. being black refers to African American/Haitian/Somali/Jamaican
So far I've watched this at least 5 times this month and I never get tired of it. Watching my cous do ballet is kinda boring but I luv dis movie as well as its sequal, center stage turn it up.
it's great that they show what students go through at a school like this but it doesn;t include outside of ballet how they have to stay maintained....but i <3 this movie!
Hey. People have Their opinions and no one is going to change them whether anybody likes it or not, so don't argue with each other over what people think because you're an individual and you have thoughts and oppinions an their your own and you dont want anybody tearing it down it's more hatred to a world that has plenty of it.
Being a "Better ballerina" comes from VERY hard work and training. Your race is inconsiquential. (though Russians are known for their gorgeous talents of ballet). It does not matter what your ethnicity is if your truely love the art, work for it and you CAN be the best ballerina whether your white, black, asian, hispanic, anything. I really hate when people think your ethnicty defines your possiblities.

@Maewynn2011 Actually your the idiot here you dumbass hoe! Who the fuck do you think you are saying white are better ballerina's? Your racist ass needs to get a life then make stupid ass comments!
@megacupcake4444 LOL, whatever you think! :D Loser. Dont messge me back, you you say "who am I" to say what I said, who are YOU to sy what you said. Just because YOU or anyone else dosent agree with MY opinion doesnt make them right. So go fuck yourself bitch.
@Maewynn2011 im the loser? ok? I never said it makes them right. can you read? btw saying "go fuck yourself bitch" does not make your ugly ass seem cool.
@Maewynn2011 This coming from the person who called me a dumbass hoe, without EVER talking to me in your life. NOT to mention YOU harassed me first by saying that, so I replied. Why didnt you just leave me alone?????? Did I comment to YOU? NO. I dont care what you think, that is my opinion and its not going to change. I think white people are better ballerina's ... wow get over it. BTW: Calling me ugly isnt "cool" either considering you dont know what i look like. I believe I ALSO said dnt reply
WTF? Look I get the whole "suspension of disbelief" thing but what ballet company runs "Swan Lake" and "Romeo and Juliet" on the same NIGHT let alone the same season????
Zoe Saldana IS black or dark if you want, I mean she's even darker than Beyoncé or Alicia Keys. But she's not African American , that is the difference.
Was the "ballet" they were seeing supposed to be, like, a medley of scenes from different ballets, or were they just being stupid...cause last time I checked, the pas de quatre and the balcony scene were from two different ballets...
@Funtabulosity329 i think in benefits they perform different routines from different ballets. usually the most popular or recognizable. benefits are basically to display the talent i think
I use to love my dance classes sooo much, but my Father pulled me out, saying it was a sport and stuck me in karate! I hated it! This movie brings back some memories though!
@melissalovesjls Yes I agree. It is very physically demanding to be a ballerina. No Question!!! You have to be athletic and in top shape. Kudos to those who chose this as a profession!!! :)
@piccolomaster I agree. I have a passion for Ballet and am trying my best to progress in my technique. I do not want to dance professionally (why an added stress?) but enjoy what I do and appreciate the beauty of it. There are millions of talented dancers out there, and though some people decide to attempt pursuing this art as a career, we should work on being the best dancers as we can as individuals. .
@sevrinaanastasia Best of luck to you and I wish you well. I agree with your statement about being the best dancers as you can be individually. Tough profession no doubt.
@xxDancingBabyxx Sorry, just my weird brain. Over here in England it's generally pronounced MAU-reen, rather than mau-REEN and I associate it with a plump, middle-aged woman with her hair in rollers and a headscarf who runs a pub or a greasy-spoon cafe and shouts at the customers - a bit like something from Monty Python. A far cry from the pretty, young woman in the film.
I go to AMDA and have been told many times that the intense training there is like that in the film... Yikes. But they only take 500 students her year, so... :)
So, ballerinas REALLY need to watch their weight, eh? That's "no joke", then? I mean, I knew they had to be thin, but, okay, yeah, this is probably a dumb comment, but they appear to be gazelle-like. I guess the longer a dancer exercises certain muscles, the sooner his or her body will take the shape of a ballerina. Also, the muscles become more "toned." I wonder if this is where many eating disorders begin?
@iluvamedic very true.. doesnt matter how good you are, its important to show respect for teachers/choreographers no matter how much theyre hard on you or whatever, because the reality is, most teachers, choreographers etc, arent exactly the nicest people youre gonna come across, thats just how the business is in the real world, and if youre arrogant and have a bad attitude, more than likely you wont go very far..
The ballet teacher is DONNA MURPHY...a phenomenal singer/actress, Tony-Award winner...the lady is FIERCE. I knew her when she started to become 'known'...check her out! x
The last time in class when I was banging my toe shoes on the ground i let go of it and it hit me in the head...everyone laughed but it hurt soooo much
@FredericaBimble Actually, it looks to me as if the screen is slightly elongated, meaning everyone looks to have been stretched a bit. Maybe it's my monitor
To keep their legs warm.When dancing you can't allow your leg muscles to get too relaxed ,even during breaks or you will lose the level of flexibility you have worked into and have to warm up all over again-at least sitting on the floor u can continue to stretch to keep your legs warm and muscles flexed.
ok i cant wait till i get my point shoes...they all look absolutly beautiful when these girls dance ..this movie really made me really want to watch it again
@Domo4eva That may be so, but Ms. Saldana identifies as a black woman. She's quoted as saying: "When I go to the D.R., the press in Santo Domingo always asks, '¿Qué te consideras, dominicana o americana?' (What do you consider yourself, Dominican or American?)... I'm like, 'No! Let's get it straight, yo soy una mujer negra.' ('I am a black woman.')"
@VntgeLve i really thought she was half black but i never knew shes latina..shes beautiful really lovin this movie much since i was in highschool...it made me do ballet even more coz of this movie...
My mom did ballet when she was younger, and said the point has a hard material inside so that they dont break their toes when they are on them since they are on their very tippy toes.
i hate that Jodi got in for her looks. she doesn't deserve to be there. gosh. i guess she is suppose to be the underdog or something. that's messed up, anyway. and Eva needs to tone it down before she gets kicked out.

To keep their legs warm.When dancing you can't allow your leg muscles to get too relaxed ,even during breaks or you will lose the level of flexibility you have worked into and have to warm up all over again-at least sitting on the floor u can continue to stretch to keep your legs warm and muscles flexed.

@gullet86 She's actually not black at all, she's Dominican. Some are darker. I have a cousin who is.

@Domo4eva That may be so, but Ms. Saldana identifies as a black woman. She's quoted as saying: "When I go to the D.R., the press in Santo Domingo always asks, '¿Qué te consideras, dominicana o americana?' (What do you consider yourself, Dominican or American?)... I'm like, 'No! Let's get it straight, yo soy una mujer negra.' ('I am a black woman.')"

why are they wearing pointe shoes?

My mom did ballet when she was younger, and said the point has a hard material inside so that they dont break their toes when they are on them since they are on their very tippy toes.

I think the lift at 8:20 is way better than the Dirty Dancing one!
