I'm sitting here crying my eyes out at how beautiful this program is. This performance tells it all. Exquisite beyond anyone's imagination. Russian artistry at its best. And to think they shared the medal? Urggggggggh.
They are SO beautiful. Every move,every note is finished. The extensions, the line, the edge. It galls me to no end they had to share the Gold Medal w/the mediocre Sale'&Pelltier-all because of a couple of hyped up,self righteous announcers. Watch that silly OP of S&P w/them crashing to the ice-complete with Jamie wearing granny's dress to top it off-then feast your eyes and ears on this beautiful performance.There's no comparison,no question which team are the true gold medalists and champions.
Perfect. They won on that SP alone. Beautiful music, classic choreography, elegant costumes, textbook elements and the grace of russian ballet dancers.
@AnnaPavlovaFan Just a minor correction that La cena actually translates as 'the dinner' (since there is a piece of music called 'Nocturne' from the same film this was taken form, and it isn't the same one). :o)
This is the best pair SP performance ever. Just beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! Everything! Perfect line, perfect speed, perfect music, even their body structure. Everything lines up as the most beautiful performance!
They are, with Gordeeva and grinkov, my favorite pairs.
They never miss an opportunity to get you into their world, their lines, their performance, their bubble. They used their mastered techniques to the service of expression.
It really IS unfair isn't it. The effects still being felt today w/this stupid CoP's. This judgemental,strident Sandra Bezic, yelping Scott Hamilton.Surely they can find SOMEBODY better than these two.Bezic quit skating at 18,never finished higher than 5th.Scott DIDN'T win the LP in '84. Come on NBC! Skating is on life support largely because of these two,although whiney Jamie DID play a part in it.Find someone else besides these two before it's too late. PLEASE!
right up there with gordeeva and grinkov' sp from the 94 olympics. this programs astounds with its technical prowess but more importantly the emotion of it all!
Much better than Gordeeva&Grinkov's in my humble opinion. If I had to compare it to a program, that would have been Torvill&Dean's Bolero, also an iconic skate. I've watched it about a million times and I can't find a flaw in this performance! Absolutely breathtaking!
ive watched it alot as well. i remember watching for the first time and just being blown away and feeling emotionally moved. ok if we are being nit picky, i think her position on the death spiral could be better. elena has such a vulnerability and fragility to her and anton complements her.. plus he is so handsome with a killer bod...lol
It really isn't. It's perfect, just like the rest of the routine. I can accept nothing less than a 5.9 for the technical merit and that's only because they skated early on.
This is the best SP I have ever seen, and I saw in live in the arena in Salt Lake City. They were such a great pair. He is as beautiful as she is in every move, with his extensions, posture, lines. He is not just presenting her.
In my eyes they are the only Olympic gold medallists in pairs at the 2002 Olympics. Such beauty and difficulty too. They make it look easy.

To Elena and Anton- the gold medal was an award.
To the Canadians- their medal was a gift...or a pacifier.
@libralady - I so agree with you.
" Bezec...never finished higher than 5th..." LOL

the spinning thing they do at 1:14, slightly out of sync

Under the new scoring imo they would have been ahead of the pack by a mile after the SP. Just breathtaking. No one could touch them here.
