Duly Noted From Russia, with depth
Posted by Andrew Alexander on Mon, Jul 11, 2011 at 6:43 PM
Next up, in theaters tomorrow, Tuesday, July 12, it's Giselle in 3D from no less than the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg, Russia. It's billing itself as "the world's first 3D ballet," and though it does sound kind of like a gag from a Mel Brooks movie, we're actually willing to give this one a chance. Filmed ballet always ends up a bit flat, so the well-considered use of 3D technology could, in fact, bring the sense of depth and immediacy that so many movies of dance tend to lack. This Giselle will kick off on Tuesday, July 12 at 12:00 p.m., followed by a second performance at 7:30 p.m at local theaters including Barrett Commons 14 with IMAX, Discover Mills 18, and Southlake Pavilion 24 with IMAX.
