A couple of addenda to my movie post...

First of all, does anyone watch "Fringe"? Okay, spoiler alert if you haven't seen Thursday's episode...

My mini-rant: did they have to make the dead ballerina a depressive suicide victim whose only joy in life came from ballet? They could have made her a beautiful dancer who died an untimely death or who was an accident victim or anything else! This made me sad as both a writer and a viewer. Another stereotype used just to give a character "depth."

Sigh.

Now, onto a happier addendum. I opened my Yahoo page and saw this wonderful article:

4 Ballet Moves for a Beautiful Body from Natalie Portman's trainer for "The Black Swan."

Yay! Bring ballet out into the open! Showcase it, encourage it, support it!

Happy dancing~
