Every single movement of hers tells a story...no unnecessary displays of flexibility (although heaven knows she has it...and uses it beautifully)

This is by far one of the best interpretations I've ever seen. Breathtaking.

the only bad thing about this variation is the CAMERA MAN

Agree on feeling what I've seen of this perf is badly edited, although they did a nice job with Guerin. Platel's variations have a lot of shots where you see torso and face when you know feet and legs are doing something you want to see. Nothing will *ever* make me like this version of the dance with the flower basket (much prefer Makarova/Lanchberry music and steps). It just looks like it belongs in Stomp. But Guerin does it better than anyone I've seen, preserving some delicacy.

I think that the camera man/men did a fantastic job with this ballet. I've seen much worse. 6:13 - very powerful image.

This is the best Nikiya i have ever seen! Poor thing, when she "dies" it's breathtakingly amazing, but her hand smashes on the ground...

Bayadère production in 1992 was the last Noureev work (He died in januar 1993) , but the film was made in 1994.

Less is more - the most sophisticated interpretation of Nikiya's part. So sincere, unpretentious and very moving. No artificial ornaments, grimaces, showing off her elasticity. I like the costumes Thanks heaven she does not look like some kinde of Sheherezade comparing with russians versions.

I have seen many variations of this on youtube. She is my favorite. She exumes the sadness needed for this scene, and she dances it beautifully. I like Zakharova, but she always seems lacking in her emotions.

@manderson610 Sorry, but this is the Russian method. This is Nureyev´s last ballet for the Paris Opera. Because he was already very sick(he died 3 months later)he asked the sublime Ninel Kurgapkina(his partner of the Leningrad years) to come from Russia and finish training the dancers.

She is incredible but I kinda wish she was wearing the red costume.
