Ballet 422: This is a documentary, sort of getting to be a fly on the wall as a young dancer and choreographer and the New York Ballet Company (and that that goes with that) bring together a new ballet. I enjoyed the tv show Breaking Point, it took us behind the scenes of a ballet company, this does the same, but focuses on the dance, rather than drama among the dancers. I really enjoyed it.

A Midsummer Night's Dream: This version, as I'm sure there are many versions, is set in turn of the century Tuscany and boasts a star studded cast. I really enjoyed this movie but there was a major flaw for me. It's no surprise that Shakespeare is not generally G rated, AMND has a lot of opportunity to be taken to a more adult rating, this version included a good deal of nudity and partial nudity, it's rated PG-13 but I was not prepared for quite so much nudity, it's not requisite for the story.
