This movie literally convinced my mom to get me out of ballet 😂 she said no way you ending up like this demon

"The only person standing in your way is you." Fun Fact: The script took around ten years to make it to the screen. Real Dancing Fact: Both Mila Kunis and Natalie Portman have praised choreographer Benjamin Millepied for altering the choreography enough to allow them to do most of their own dancing and to help them appear like professionals. Good Friemenies Fact: Natalie Portman revealed that director Darren Aronofsky would subtly try to pit her and Mila Kunis against each other during filming in an attempt to increase the on-screen tension between their characters. This included keeping the two actresses separated during filming and sending each of them intimidating text messages about each others performance that day. However, according to Kunis, this backfired; because they were already good friends before filming, whenever they would get wind that the other one was doing really well, they would respond in congratulatory support, not rivalry.

I don't think there's ever going to be a psychological thriller as good as this one, I wish I could revive watching the last performance again, especially the act where she ends with the black swan and her shadow resembles the swan, just perfect. The oscar Natalie won was well deserved

I love how the costumes are also telling the story. Nina starts in white and pink displaying her mind set and the shades slowly darkens with gray to black as she falls into madness. The movie is about toxic perfection and loosing yourself in your craft. Its so good. ❤❤❤

Love this movie, Natalie Portman deservedly scooped up an Ocsar, and Mila Kunis was superb as the ambiguously shady rival.

every time you said "ballet dancer" i heard "belly dancer" lmao

I never realized the rash on her back is supposed to be a metaphor for her mental health. At first, it's not that bad. Over time as more traumatic things happen to her while preparing for the role, it gets worse & eventually it consumes her. The stress/pressure of the industry she's in, the predatory behavior of the art director, her overbearing mom, her struggle with owning/accepting her sexuality, etc.

You should watch “Perfect Blue”. It’s a 90s Japanese psych thriller that this movie is loosely based on.

Girl this movie was PURE CINEMA! Loves this reaction! Your reactions to mindfuck movies are always the best.

fun fact: natalie portman actually trained in ballet for months for this role so she could actually dance in the film

When everything started getting chaotic I lost it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 feel like we going crazy with her. Your reaction is funny asf

If I remember correctly Natalie said Nina didnt die and it’s basically representing her innocence fading as she’s becoming a woman

I think he picked her because she bit him. It's the Black Swan energy he was looking for.

this is literally one of my favorite movies. If you liked this you should watch Perfect Blue (1996), it’s an animated movie that is literal PERFECTION. Natalie Portman was also in another movie called Closer that is so beautiful and iconic that she of course gave another outstanding performance in

One of THE best psychological thrillers imo.. I cant imagine anyone other but Natalie portraying this role, it was so beautifully heart breaking!! Thank you for watching this, there isn't many reactions for it 🥺🥺

The way Natalie bodies this role is what I aspire to! She deserved the Oscar for this!!!!

I've noticed a lot of people mention Perfect Blue, but don't think I saw anyone say that Darren Aronofsky bought the rights to Perfect Blue specifically so he could make Black Swan.

As someone who has danced professionally for years, I have a love hate relationship with this movie. Love the thriller aspect along with the aesthetic but annoyed how Natalie Portman claimed to do all of the dancing scenes when in reality the majority of the pointe scenes were done by a professional ballerina instead. Love your reaction as always, Chu!

OMG I'm so glad you reacted to this beautiful movie!! Darren Aronofsky is my favorite director...Love your reactions A LOT, sending love 💕

When I first saw this film, I had read an interpretation that it was about the protagonist having a mental breakdown after being sexually abused by her mother her entire life. Only later on did I hear other takes on this film, and that one is still the one that makes the most sense to me.

I took dance classes for 8 years, sadly some traditional teachers want you to be thin. "I can see your lunch" has been said to me a couple of times because my tummy would stick out. I don't know if it's the same today

Black Swan is such a good movie. I could only watch it once, but it left a big impact. This is why I voted for you to watch it. Gorgeous and heartbreaking. Natalie deserved that Oscar.

you can be a ballet dancer no matter what your size is, the skill and talent has nothing to do with weight. but the ballet industry has a long history and still very prominent beauty expectations for the ballet dancers bc of the beginning of ballet dancers in france also being used by powerful men and just general french beauty standards. but WEIGHT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH BALLET ABILITY!! alot of ballet dancers sadly end up having ED’s due to this prominent beauty expectation. but i think the industry atleast in the US is being bit more inclusive. although slowly.

Ok but the soundtrack and ballet idea was created a lot of years ago by Tchaikovsky, credits to him

i just watched it for the first time last week. it’s one of my fav movies now. also as a figure skater and ex ballet dancer, there’s a TON of eating disorders involved.

THIS was one of my favorite psychological thrillers ever. Pure cinema! The obsession of perfectionism! I'm so happy you reacted to this!

This movie was a mind twist but still good and an amazing performance by Natalie Portman. Love your reaction Chuuzus!

“Is that her” “That’s you girl” I’m sorry but that part sent me💀😂😂😂😂😂😂your the best for a reason 😂😂

I didn't know I needed this until I saw this notification 🥺🥺🥺 this is one of my all-time favourite films; these white girls were acting *down*, okay?!

Being someone who had a passion for dance, and later having to give it up because I sustained a knee injury and gained massive weight as a result of depression, this movie WRECKED me. Especially seeing the other dancer getting hit by a car and having bolts on her legs...

how I took the lip biting thing was he wanted to see her have a strength/resistance, show how defiant she was to get the role. Had she let him have his way it would’ve proved she’s weak

One of your best reactions yet mehn!!! I've seen the movie many times before, but your reactions made it even more of an experience. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I love you!❤️❤️

This is an excellent movie. I remember being a kid and looking forward to watch this. We didn't have internet access at home so I would go to the public library to do research for homeworks, they'd assign you a computer for an hour to google whatever you needed, I would rush and use the last minutes to watch this movie's trailer as many times as possible. Then, when I got to watch the film, Omg! Natalie is perfection. Good old times those days.

I’m so glad you loved this movie 👏🏾 33:27 “Cinema! THIS IS CINEMA!!!”

this movie is definitely inspired by perfect blue, an anime film directed by satoshi kon. i strongly recommend watching that film too. it’s beautifully haunting.

You should watch "Mother!" It's one of my favorite movies EVER. So disturbing but Jennifer Lawrence's performance is INSANE. It's the same director as "Black Swan" too :)

I remember watching this when it came out and how it reminded me of Gaga's 09 vma performance but also Madonna's Die Another Day video. As someone living with a mental disorder, I'll always have a special place in my heart for this movie. Loved your reaction because b*tches do be crazy lol

I'm so glad I (and the other girlies here) voted for Black Swan-I knew you'd like it and that it'd be hilarious to watch!!

Another great Darren Aronofsky film is Mother! with Jennifer Lawrence it'll definitely take you for a ride and it's just as beautiful as Black Swan 🖤👌🏻

'Oh no don't waste the cake! ' Love this reaction

aaah so happy you did this, black swan is one of my favs movies from life! it was what got me into dancing 'cause the dancing scenes are so breathtaking. this reaction is the best Christmas present, thank you ❤

Thank you for this 😊. If you're looking for another movie to watch, Promising Young Woman is a great one! Make sure you read up on the trigger warnings first though 😬 Merry Christmas! ❤️❤️❤️

omg ugly fine is the perfect term. I have such a thing for ugly fine men like Vincent Cassel, Benedict cumberbatch, Adam driver

there are a few theories that speculate what happened to nina before/after the movie but the one i think is the most logical was that nina was s3xually abused as a child. it’s dark AF but hey so is this movie 👀😅

One of my favourite films of all time by one of my favourite directors, thank you for your reaction

The definition of beautifully tragic! I'm so happy you reacted to it ❤ Happy New Year, Legend!

You experiencing these amazing films with such joy and being on the verge of tears because of the quality of the film is why I love movies and reactors like you!!

oh my god this is one of my all time favourite movies it's so good! i'm glad you checked it out boo💞 Natalie Portman gave us that Oscar nomination type acting as Nina, she DID that

one of the greatest movies ever! loved this

That opening scene ....the first 30 seconds of the movie is absolutely beautiful- my favorite scene. I have loved Natalie Portman since I first seen her in The Professional, 1993. She's one of my favorites.

Omggg my favorite movie !!! So glad you reacted to it

Black Swan is a classsic. I loved your reaction, Chu!

your commentary was so funny, I was traumatize the first time I watched it, and had nightmare with the "black swan side" but the final dance scene omg it was beautiful.

great reaction! awesome movie choice.

Me liking your videos before they even start 🙈🙈🙈

You have the best reaction

whoever is in charge of this soundtrack did an amazing job 😂 tchaikovsky is rolling 35:12 great vid!!

SO glad you reviewed this one. This movie's always had a weird hold on me.

For some reason, my favorite line and also line favorite delivery in this film is, "Was I good?!" Black Swan instantly asking the only thing that matters.

Best Line: it's demonic but it's beautiful!

that cutaway edit to Cassie from Euphoria about the lez dream omfg hahaha my soul left my body

You'd really like Last Night in Soho. Anya Taylor Joy ATE.

I literally said I need a drink from the scene to the hospital n Chuuzu put in that meme 😂😂😂😂😂

So happy this won the poll!!! This is such a great movie, and love the lust over Cassiel. He is so damn fine!

Vincent Cassel is a French treasure and a damn fine actor! I'm very excited for the upcoming version of The Three Musketeers with him and Eva Green 😍 Definitely check out Vincent in Brotherhood of the Wolf. You will not be disappointed by additional man candy Mark Dacascos 😉

Merry Christmas Chu! Happy holidays everybody ❤️ Edit: CACKLING at "uglyfine" 🤣

I love your reactions. Love from Pakistan.

27:40 lol. So many funny reactions. I saw this once but a long time ago I forgot how good it is

Merry Christmas Chu! 🎁🎄

I love this movie! It’s so interesting as you’re watching thinking am I imagining it or is she?
