ahh just fonteyn raising her arm at the beginning makes my heart melt

Even though this is not the best version of this pdd I have watched, it's the most touching one. With Nureyev and Fonteyn there is always the honesty to emotion, the true connection, in little moments as well as overall body language. When Nureyev is on stage with Fonteyn, he took what he later projected to audience and gave it to HER. He just can't be crazy enough about her. And Fonteyn could die just any second in his arms.

Rudolf Nureyev and Margot Fonteyn. A partnering made in heaven.

PERFECCIÓN PURA. BELLEZA PURA.

Fonteyn did a lovely job but nowhere near as perfect as the much younger Lynn Seymour, on whose physique this choreography was devised by KM. She had the opening night snatched from her to allow F & N to dance it instead - ROH got a lot more publicity/money that way, but still shabby treatment of young dancers, typical of RB at that time.

I love nureyev because he wasnt perfect like baryshnikov. shows you dont have to have everything to go somewhere
@hellokittyjfh
woow Fonteyn is awful? You obviously don't know anything about dance. The ARTISTRY (which is what she was known for, not tech.) of Fonteyn, was what made her such a legend in the dance world. If you can't watch this video and be touched by the sheer artistry of her presence and movements, then you have obviously not been educated enough to know that artists like these come few and far in between. Like Pavlova before her, its the ARTISTRY that makes the artist not tech.

There are only two reasons why someone could dislike this. Number one: just to cause an annoyance. Number two: they don't understand. The technique and choreography in this piece is way beyond its time.
