I thought, I should recommend you something with all the Black Swan’s frenzy of the moment; The Red Shoes. Aronofsky himself has stated that he’s drawn inspiration from Powell’s The Red Shoes to create Black Swan. Some say that Black Swan resembles The Red Shoes on acid, as Aronofsky’s film takes the idea of giving one’s all for art to a morbid extreme.
However, I still think , there is something really creepy and fascinating about the Powell’s film.
