- DirectorDarren AronofskyStarsNatalie PortmanMila KunisVincent CasselNina is a talented but unstable ballerina on the verge of stardom.

- DirectorLisa CholodenkoStarsAnnette BeningJulianne MooreMark RuffaloTwo children conceived by artificial insemination bring their biological father into their non-traditional family life.this is one of those movies where if you change the sexualities of the protagonists, it's still the same story. but aside from that, there's also some major offensive stuff. just make your lead a bisexual if she enjoys sex with men, too. meh.
