'Black Swan' starring Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis - trailer review

Black Swan

Directed by: Darren Aronofsky Starring: Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis, Vincent Cassel Rating: R Release Date: December 1, 2010

TRAILER SCORE: 8/10

MY THOUGHTS:

I have no idea what this movie is about but it looks awesome.  Portman plays a ballerina competing to move up in her company against a rival (who may be imaginary) played by Kunis.  It looks pretty surreal and may contain some sort of Sci-fi elements, though the trailer gives very little away.  I'm reminded of Requiem For a Dream more than any of Aronofsky's other films.  Is ballet the new drug?  I'm intrigued and excited. Now I just have to wait until December to see it.
