      Black Swan is about a ballet dancer who, driven by the demand to perfectly play the lead role in Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake, descends into madness.

      It’s with Natalie Portman and a truly amazing movie. I absolutely recommend watching it, even when you’re not into ballet.

      Edit: To be honest just watch Joker too. It tells the story of Joker becoming the Joker and Joaquin Phoenix did an amazing job playing the role. It’s completely different from any DC / Batman movies and probably not what you’d expect from a movie that plays in this universe.

      Both movies are great psychothrillers.

      A ballet dancer who’s going through some serious psychological shit, and the story of the movie is kinda a modern retelling of the ballet she’s performing in
