Summary: historical ballet document
Review: The picture of Maya Plisetskaya is deceving, if one only buy the video because of her.This is a more interessting video if one want to witness Galina Ulanova in all her glory. The first ballet ''collage'' is an rare film studio version of Swan lake, With a lot of special effects. Specially the tranformation swan/human is worth mentioning + animated parts. It also includes a mashinegun speeded Natalia Dudinskaya as the Black swan. The fountains of Bakhhisarai is the only ballet one can see Ulanova/Plisetskaya , dancing together. The the flames of Paris is only of'' historical document'' interest. Charlie Chaplin would have done it better!
