Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan was an almost permanent fixture in critics’ Top Tens and Best Film award nominees for last year and the powerful film is out on Blu-ray and DVD on Monday the 16th of May, perfect time then to share this clip with you.

This video is part of the Special Features on the Blu-ray and if there’s a film that benefits from a thorough deconstruction it’s this one, thankfully there’s an extensive breakdown of the film included on the disc, with contributions from cast and crew with Aronofsky in particular in a generous mood and watching how he builds the mental landscape of Natalie Portman’s fragile Nina is fascinating.

We’ve got a clip for you which hints at the ideas behind the film, the comprehensive extras are well worth a look.

 

Black Swan is out on Blu-ray and DVD May the 16th and our review will be up shortly.
