The release date is set for December 3rd and I for one will be cueing up to see this film. It incorporates all the elements that I adore. Classical dance, intrigue, my favorite actors and of course outstanding and creative makeup artistry. What\u2019s there not to love? \u00a0You might be wondering who is the artist behind this beautiful makeup design. \u00a0Her name is Judy Chin who&#8217;s CV reads like a who&#8217;s who in the film world. We are all familiar with her work: Sex in the city, Frida, Failure to Launch to name just a few of her signature films. For the Black Swan, she wanted to incorporated some of the elements from the set, adding silvery branches so brilliantly crafted across a bold coal black sweep across the eye area. Ms. Chin&#8217;s masterful eye for detail, created the perfect makeup look that captures the essence of the character. This accentuates the contrast from the corp dancers and the Black Swan\u2014They being pale and delicate, and the Black Swan, dark and fierce. I don&#8217;t know what I will enjoy more, taking in Ms. Chin&#8217;s amazing artistry or Natalie&#8217;s rivoting\u00a0film presence, either way I know I am going to love this film!<br \/>\nTBS<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of my favorite actresses, Natalie Portman stars in the phychological thriller, The Black Swan.
