They called him White Crow because he was different. And it was these idiosyncrasies that made Rudolf Nureyev a ballet sensation. This new movie about the exquisite Russian dancer, directed exquisitely by Ralph Fiennes, will have you soaring in your seat.
You probably already know about his defection to the West in 1961. But that doesn't dampen the suspense in the final scenes when his handlers try all the tricks in the book to prevent him from defecting.
Still, it's the breathtaking dancing that elevates this flick beyond any other the Movie Slut has seen in months.
Bravo!
