Movie Haiku:Manhattan dancer (Portman) gets lead in SWAN LAKE (her big break!), but while she''''s perfect as "the white swan," she too goody-goody to be "the black swan." Jan hated this film so much she could barely sit in her seat ("f##king misogynist snuff film"), but Rich saw a female complement to Aronofsky''''s very successful film THE WRESTLER (which Jan also dissed).
