I think it's kind of the same concept as having a body double or a stuntman in a film. Natalie trained hard to dance as much as she could in a short space of time, but only the scenes where staying en pointe wasn't for too long. The more difficult scenes were handled by Sara Lane, and she was recognized for dancing the parts Natalie couldn't. Maybe the could have given her more credit or something, but after all, this is a FILM about ballet, not an ACTUAL ballet.
she says she doesn't want fame and natalie deserves everything. so why is she speaking out? she was paid, and got her name in the credits. no one said natalie did all of the dancing.
It's great she spoke out - why not point out you can't became a pro in a year?
I studied classical ballet and I could tell she had trained but that it was very clear that there was a cinematic emphasis on Portman's emotions in her face while the long shots were a Double.
@ramonimacaroni could not agree more!

She doesn't care about fame and recognition yet she's "speaking out" and doing a dance routine in this news segment?
