It was perfect.


Kat (Komfort Zone With A K) is back with another psychological thriller, this time it was their first watch of Black Swan (2010)


When professional ballet dancer Nina (Natalie Portman) finally secures the role of a lifetime as the Swan Queen in the studio's production of Swan Lake she thinks life can't be any better. There's something she needs to work on though, in this production she has to play the role of the innocent Swan Princess as well as the temptress Black Swan. As pressure mounts she believes that a fellow dancer might be trying to sabotage her, Lilly (Mila Kunis) who is the embodiment of freedom that Nina misses in her performance. She knows its only a matter of time until she is replaced like the lead before her, Beth (Winona Ryder). Not only that but her Mother (Barbara Hershey) has an emphatic need to keep her as innocent as possible. There's so much pressure and it's only a matter of time until Nina starts to crack.

So practice your pirouettes in the mirror at home, stop scratching the rash on your back and avoid sexual lesbian fantasies if you can as we verbally dance our way through Black Swan (2010)
