The White Crow

Drama

Directed by Ralph Fiennes

The story of Rudolf Nureyev, whose escape to the West stunned the world at the height of the Cold War. With his magnetic presence, Nureyev emerged as ballet’s most famous star, a wild and beautiful dancer limited by the world of 1950s Leningrad. His flirtation with Western artists and ideas led him into a high-stakes game of cat and mouse with the KGB. From TMDB

    I watched The White Crow this afternoon. I realized I had never seen a film that Ralph Fiennes directed. It wasn't bad, but I felt the narrative was kind of all over the place. Maybe a script issue? Otherwise, it was a beautiful movie to look at. 📽️

    Fast Rewind - The White Crow (2018) "Despite The White Crow's visual beauty, powerful performances and assured direction, something is missing as the film dances around many aspects of Nureyev's character." Read more: cineramafilm.com/cinerama-film-…
