Ballet Russes (2005)

This film is pure documentary genius. Filmmakers Dan Geller and Dayna Goldfine pieced together a little gem about the famous Ballet Russes, using interviews with surviving members like Alicia Markova, Frederic Franklin, George Zoritch and Nina Novak. Cleverly mixing precious archive footages and new interviews, the film tracks the ups and downs of the dancers who counted great creators of this century like Nijinsky, Balanchine, Picasso, Matisse and Stravinsky as collaborators.
