Splendid - a do not miss for ballet fans (and others)
11 November 2005
This is certainly one of the best films in a long time. Although ballet fans will enjoy it, others will as well. It received a big round of applause from the audience.

It is full of art, humor and extremely interesting characters. It is mostly the history of the Ballets Russes as well as other interesting stories about ballet. Practically without exception all of the characters interviewed in the film were interesting and most with a great sense of humor.

There were many enjoyable and moving clips of the dancers when they were younger, now most of them in their 80's. It is enough to move even the most hardened movie goers. I include this as one of the best films I've ever seen (and I've seen a lot).
