Movie by the BBC documenting the 1913 debut of Igor Stravinsky's masterpiece "The Rite of Spring" and the ballet choreographed to it by Vaslav Nijinsky both so far advanced for the time that the Parisian audience rioted in its inability to grasp the event.

  • I can't believe no one in the audience became aware of how ironic it was to riot during this.

  • The sacrifice scene made my heart beat faster and faster. Superb!

  • According to IMDB,

    Nijinsky - Adam Garcia

    Diaghilev - Alex Jennings

    Stravinsky - Aidan McArdle

    Monteux - Christian McKay

  • What a beautiful song for a riot.

  • Thus far from what I have seen on youtube, Zenaida Yanowsky is by far my favorite as the sacrificial maiden.

  • It would have been nice to have the credits at the end of part six, to see who everyone is. The young man who plays Nijinski is very handsome. D. Alexandr D'Maddalena

  • Marvelous! The music is the music.

  • how can people still sleep in such disastrous but yet beautiful music written by Stravinsky?
