Movie Reviews of Zizi Jeanmarie Dances Roland Petit
Movie Review: Great Dancing/Poor Video Quality
Summary: 3 Stars
Watch these wonderfully talented dancers and choreographers perform in three pieces. Zizi is exquisite. The dvd is exiting to watch. However,the video quality is somewhat poor whether due to the original filming, deteriation, or the transfer to dvd - I don't know. It is still worth viewing. I would have bought it anyway for the love of ballet, and the chance to see these people dance.
