    The Red Shoes

    ★★★★

    “Why do you want to dance?” 
    “Why do you want to live?” 
    A film about the mutual exclusivity of great art and personal relationships. 
    As in Hans Christian Anderson’s Red Shoes, Victoria can cut her feet off with love and marriage, but they will dance on in front of her; the haunting memory of her potential barring her from spiritual peace. Julian can choose between work and love. Victoria cannot do the same.
