> I saw the movie "Black Swan" today. It's the story of a ballerina who wins the title role in a company's rendition of Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake." The story is about a white swan and her opposite ego, the black swan. Usually, a different ballerina dances each role but in this movie, the artistic director wants ONE woman to dance both roles.

It's actually usual for the roles of Odette (white) and Odile (black) to 
be danced by the one ballerina.  I believe, way back, they were danced 
by different ballerinas, but way before my time.
