Black Swan is a film telling the story of a ballerina named "Nina Sayers" who seeks to be the protagonist of "Black Swan" play. She made many mental and physical sacrifices. With competition and her desire to reach the skies, she begot two different characters fighting each other strongly: one is good, the other is bad. This parallels the high price paid by the creative person to reach perfection. From the very beginning, we are prepared in Black Swan to live subjective dark atmosphere wrapped into darkness shadows despite of the almost hidden light appeared in close spaces all over the film which is not compared to anything but the stage itself. The aim of Nina Sayers (new swan) in review is a case we can discuss after tackling the film review. Despite of the apparent resemblance between this film and the American films telling the story of a star trying to deep his way through fame obstacles; with reference to all these initiative signs, however the film finale is different. The most obvious thing is the psychological innermost which prevails the whole film and makes it one of the most outstanding films for the last year. From this point, the frame of events is achieved by the descriptive argument about its classification which lies between psychological thrill and psychological horror. This balance had gained broad public especially because it deals with a specific kind of art which had few audiences long time ago, that is realized through the film scenario. When talking about the film scenario, one of its strength points is impenetrability despite of its simplicity and apparent clarity. One of the clearest parts of the film is the sub-story ‘Lake Swan Legend": a legend tells the story of a pretty girl transformed by magic spell into white swan (a spell which only revoked by love), but the black swan kidnapped the heart of her beloved prince. When the white swan lost hope to be released, she commit suicide to get salvation. According to this legend we can follow the basic route of the film despite of some events that distract the mind by acute psychological motive through the whole film prevailed frequently and rapidly. Some events are hard to understand although they became clear at the end of the film, because the clearest theme is darkness and light, or black and white in order. This conflict is present strongly to penetrate the absolute faith in moral stability even through mere philosophical view. This was the same thing in The Wrestler by Darren Aronofsky on 2008. He declared that when he said that it was a match to The Black Swan. Aronofsky does not hide the impact of Roman Polansky over his new film especially The Tenant on 1976. We can comprehend some elements found in Al Shabeeh or Al Methl as mentioned in the translation of Dr. Sami Al Doroby for the short novel of the great Russian novelist Viodor Dostovsky. These impacts were present in the film through the psychological resemblance theme which leads the protagonist to die for perfection. The black swan subject – although it is the sub-story for the white swan story – is an important balance for this film and makes it running; this is clear in the film from the very beginning by focusing on strong and flexible toes which are the base for slim body of the ballerina. Also, the limbs which are bent or stretched according to the scenario which Aronofsky searched through the original script of Andri Hinz; the interviews with active or retired ballerinas; and his general knowledge about this kind of art which kept in his mind when he was young (his sister's hobby). On 2000, Aronofsky was preparing a new project. He took with Natalie Portman about acting a romance film: it's about a wrestler who engaged to a ballerina. When he realized that the idea is bigger to be acted in one film, he preferred to separate them; however, he kept the same match theme about art. Whereas the wrestling is the most contemptible art (as he called it personally) and ballet which considered the most elegant art i.e. the last luxurious art. Here he is gaining the fruits of his sagacity by many awards granted to the film and the cast in his way to Oskar Award. In my opinion, the smoothness of the film instead of its blackness, and Aronofsky's cinematic language combined courage and ambiguity attributed to the music of Clint Mansel which leads the film from the beginning to the end. We can see the great role of music, as to the film frame, which delivered the strong feelings of the protagonist Nina (Natalie Portman) who could perform the role amazingly (she may be nominated to Oskar Award). She could express the character suffering, perfection obsession, severe alienation, solitude, emotional thirst and dangerous evil side which lead her in wide paces unfortunately to the rough shortcut toward perfection (the salvation of the white swan not the black one as the story name suggests confirming its dominance, despite of the apparent triumph of the weak swan which chose to escape rather than to stay and fight.
