Title: Much too old and tedious
Product review: Some of the footage here might be earlier than 1977, it's Soviet Russia, eons before the place opened up. What we see in the footage is much too old to describe the school in the 21st Century. Grace Kelly drones on and on, and at one point quietly informs us that Nureyev, Makarova, and Baryshnikov are never mentioned because they defected. Well, they were rehabilitated years ago, and Grace herself is long gone. It's a humorless, dated documentary, and should be retired to the dust bin. Ignore any recent dates for the video's release, it has nothing to do with 2004. It's 35+ years old, and does not follow up on students who built careers.Although different in purpose, Born To Be Wild, featuring 4 top male dancers from American Ballet Theatre a few years ago is highly entertaining, and I ended up buying some ballet DVD's featuring those guys.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
