Black Swan (2010) - ”The Feminine Urge to Go Completely Insane” (ft. The Revisionist’s Almanac)

In this episode of Horror Hour with the Hanna's, we pirouette into the haunting world of Black Swan (2010), Darren Aronofsky’s psychological horror masterpiece. With Natalie Portman’s Oscar-winning performance as a ballerina spiraling into obsession, this film blends beauty, madness, and body horror in a way that still lingers in audiences’ minds.

We break down the film’s themes of artistic perfection, duality, and psychological decay, exploring how Aronofsky crafts a nightmarish descent into madness. Is Black Swan a horror film in disguise or a true genre-bending thriller? And how does its portrayal of ambition and self-destruction still resonate today?

This week we are joined by Andrew from "The Revisionist Almanac". You can find more of Andrew here:
