Bows, feathers and lace :: the dark allure and beauty of Valentino

dark beauty
Time seems to disappear into a big black hole ~
and in the darkness is mystery, unexpected pleasures and glimpses of light.

the swan queen
Black Swan :: Natalie Portman stars in director, Darren Aronofsky’s movie about a dancer living on the edge of reality, and explores the challenges of striving for perfection.
It portrays the story of an emotionally brittle ballet dancer who slowly unravels after winning the role of Swan Queen in “Swan Lake.” where she must dance the parts of an innocent, fragile White Swan and her dark, sensual, evil twin, the Black Swan.
Darren Aronofsky’s ballet-psycho-thriller Black Swan
grand jete’d onto the cinephile radar with an air of incipient triumph.
