“Les Sylphides is a short, non-narrative ballet blanc. The ballet, described as a “romantic reverie”, is frequently cited as the first ballet to be simply about mood and dance. Les Sylphides has no plot but instead consists of several white-clad sylphs dancing in the moonlight with the “poet” or “young man” dressed in white tights and a black tunic.”
Congratulations to Joaquin Phoenix for winning the Oscar for Best actor. What a great speech for sharing awareness and talking about film, animal rights, queer rights, climate change and his brother River.
