Take a look: interviews, investigations, photo stories & inforgraphics - there are some real beauties here. 1/10 https://www.royalacademyofdance.org/rad-at-home/10-from-10/
Includes: Natalie Portman and Benjamin Millepied talking about Black Swan (oh my, I remember seeing that film first time. I came out of the screening into St James' Park and totally freaked out when the swans waddled toward me) đŸŠąđŸŠąđŸ˜±Â 2/10
