The Red Shoes/ UK/ 1948/ Dir: Michael Powell & Emeric Pressburger/ 133 Min/ Current Rotten Tomatoes Score: 98%
This singular Technicolor epic from Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger is cinema’s quintessential backstage drama, and has influenced generations of filmmakers, artists and aspiring ballerinas. A young rising star (Moira Shearer, THE TALES OF HOFFMAN, PEEPING TOM) is torn between two forces: the composer who loves her (Marius Goring, A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEARTH), and the impresario determined to fashion her into a great dancer (Anton Walbrook, GASLIGHT). Featuring outstanding performances, beautiful cinematography by Jack Cardiff, Oscar-winning music and an unforgettable, entrancing central dance sequence, this beloved classic stands as an enthralling tribute to the life of the artist.
