Performance of the Day

Actor: NATALE PORTMAN
Film: "Black Swan"
Character: Nina
Year: 2010


I was a little doubtful about all the hoopla over Natalie Portman's performance in this flick. She has irritated me slightly in the past with her acting style, particularly her whiny voice. Boy was I wrong. Natalie Portman has certainly given the best performance of her career and I am willing to say it was the best female performance of 2010. She absolutely deserves to take home the SAG tomorrow night and the Oscar in a few weeks. Let's just talk about her devotion to this role. The weight loss, the months of dance training, the constant back and forth with emotions. It was perfection and shouldn't be missed (although the film will probably leave you a little traumatized). Brava Portman... Brava!
