4.0 out of 5 stars A fascinating close-up of Darcy at work, 1 Mar 2002

By	Mrs. G. Naghdi (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this video for my ten-year old daughter, a young ballet dancer herself. She was absolutely absorb by it, from the beginning! The contemporary ballet Darcy is dancing, gave us both the shivers! A pity there is not more dialogue with her, I would have loved to hear her talk more about life as a ballerina.
Showing how she treats her feet before putting on the pointes fascinated my daughter! A nice video for anyone interested in ballet.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not very long, but interesting., 30 April 2000

By	L. Braben "Lynnieb" (Lancashire, England.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Although this was a good insight into what goes on behind the scenes in the world of ballet, it was really too short. The video ran for about 40 minutes, and I was left desperate to know more. Still, it is always a pleasure to watch Darcey Bussell dance, and there were scenes of her rehearsing for various roles. Only for die hard fans!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not convincing enough!, 6 Feb 2003

By	"scottish-dancer" - See all my reviews

I thought after reading the reviews here that it would be a good buy (it may be short, but it's also cheap!). However, when I received the tape, I was really disappointed. It's very short, and most importantly, the quality is bad!! Several minutes are actually repeats of images previously shown (unacceptable! If we want to see the sequence again, we can rewind, thank you!) and the only 'interesting' bits is the rehearsals, which again are too short, and what is being said is inaudible (they seem to have microphone on them, but didn't bother subtitling it when sound was bad, or repeat the sequence).
I admit that it gives that little bit more knowledge about Darcey, but surely, she deserves better than being represented by such video!
I also really like the extract from the ballet 'In the Middle Somewhat elevated'. This is pure joy! :-)
