Here's a 21st Century fairy tale that mixes the classical with modernity. A delightful story that's also intriguing. WARNING: do NOT buy this as an eBook. If you want to read it, get it in hardcover. You can read my full review here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2013/08/05/a-new-fairy-tale-ballet/

Movie Favorite

"Freely adapted from a story by Hans Christian Andersen. It’s a must for anyone interested in the art of  film. It always seems to me a work of true madness about a descent into madness. Original and timeless, it’s also a glorious celebration of classical  ballet and the pain and effort it takes to make it. The matchless beauty of  Moira Shearer is captured by the cinematography of Jack Cardiff, and Anton  Walbrook (as the impresario of the ballet company) gives an unforgettable  performance, one that alone is worth the price of admission. The film is a  transcendent experience, and the Criterion Blu-ray gives new luster to  the imagery and sound. You need to see this, unless, like me, you’ve  already watched it endlessly."
