Witness: Death Wish III. It's like the guy on the block who decides to paint their garage some ungodly color just to be different.

Forgive me for being naive, but I think the criteria should be can you do the dance or not. Obviously, I know nothing. And it sounds an awful lot like modeling.Dellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634519605152190304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-227751790693713235.post-36315229337408331192016-05-04T19:48:51.892-04:002016-05-04T19:48:51.892-04:00So...I want to watch all of these.

Each doc seems as if it would be right up my alley. I almost saw A Ballerina's Tale theateically, but just missed out. I'd like to tell you that's where I'll start...but you know me. <br /><br />Canon Films, it is.m.brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14457418128925003938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-227751790693713235.post-33897184024167668442016-05-04T18:31:45.255-04:002016-05-04T18:31:45.255-04:00Is that a "thing" in ballet. Yes. Yes it...Is that a "thing" in ballet. Yes. Yes it is. Both of my girls are heavily involved in ballet--the older one is a year away from her BFA in dance performance (and she's 17). The younger one is spending her summer at the Joffrey Ballet in Chicago.<br /><br />Both have commented on the level of body issues that are imposed on them constantly. I know, for instance, that Kid #1 will have trouble entering the corps of some companies because she's 5'3" and that's a thing. She was told years ago to do certain things to adjust the shape of her legs. The ideal ballet body is 5'8" to about 5'10" and about 110 pounds. She is not that body type and is very muscular, and that's see as unattractive or distracting or difficult to work with. It is very much a thing. She's had too many friends with eating disorders for it to be some sort of coincidence. <br /><br />It doesn't surprise me at all that skin color would be an issue for some people--at least for some of the older guard. So, while there's still some racism that exists, it's actually a <i>much</i> broader problem of which racism is just an ugly part. Weight issues, height issues, body shape issues...it's constant, and they are frequently played against each other. I imagine it's not that different from modelling.SJHoneywellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550007053995112090noreply@blogger.com
