Winona, Fox Searchlight Join Aronofsky's 'Black Swan'

Written by bigpicture on

From: getthebigpicture.net

A few more names have been added to Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan, the movie that is becoming more heavily circulated because of a sex scene with Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis than its subject matter...which is not that. I forget what it is exactly...Oh wait, yeah, it's about ballerinas and the supernatural.

Winona Ryder, kind of a Portman version 1.0, has joined the cast, and she'll play, shall we say, a much more "seasoned" dancer for Aronofsky. It's hard to say exactly what went wrong with Ryder's career. I'm not convinced she was ever as talented as we all wanted her to be - we just had a real dearth of teenage talent in the 1980s, let's be honest - but the pendulum really swung the other way in the years before her shoplifting conviction and it was a long time after that before people took her seriously again. I give her credit for slowly rebuilding her reputation, though. This should help.
