Bolshoi Ballet: The Best Of
This is a remarkable DVD that restores to wide circulation a 1957 cinema film that recorded the Bolshoi BalletÕs first ever visit to London. There is, let me say right at the beginning, some utterly amazing and quite unmissable material here and any lover of dance Ð and any ballet history buff - will want to see it. More of that later É Almost as mind-boggling as the Bolshoi companyÕs artistry, though - and, indeed, the first point brought to your attention in the opening credits - is the claim that the film is in itself artistically groundbreaking. In an introduction notable for both sheer hyperbole and slipshod punctuation, we are informed that it was Òdirected by Paul Czinner in his special method and technique
