I'm not familiar with her dance background, but I would imagine there was some intense training for all of the actors during pre-production for the film.<br /><br />As much as I love dance, I don't know if this film is for me. We'll wait for the DVD and consider carefully whether we want to take a chance on it.Travis Codyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06192526507760146748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2715650832746263882.post-8059061367489891342011-01-31T12:46:26.112-04:002011-01-31T12:46:26.112-04:00Boobies and PK - Hope you enjoy it!
Janet - I do ...Boobies and PK - Hope you enjoy it!<br /><br />Janet - I do think that most artists will hit walls in their creative lives that equate to symbolic death experiences. Any artist, no matter what medium they're in, go to places that the average Joe doesn't have to. It's part of the job description.<br /><br />It depends on what kind of transformation the artist is experiencing. If it's really life altering, it can lead to elation or to a period of mourning, or put the person through painful feelings of being adrift, or all of the above. Some artists are prepared for the turbulance and ride it with eyes wide open, but some just find themselves in the middle of Dorothy's tornado on their way to Oz and have a bit of a freakout.Julia Phillips Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15392455413201190775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2715650832746263882.post-66606268887434977842011-01-31T08:58:43.628-04:002011-01-31T08:58:43.628-04:00Thanks for the lowdown, Julia - I've been watc...Thanks for the lowdown, Julia - I've been watching the trailers and thinking I need to see this (huge Natalie Portman fan, myself), now I know I have to!<br /><br />Your comments put me in mind of the anguish Heath Ledger went through in playing the Joker in Batman.
