The Sleeping Beauty

2000 · 148 min

A stately, glittering stage spectacle of classical dance, elegant and unhurried, rewarding patient attention with visual splendour and romantic sweep.

Overview
The Sleeping Beauty remains, as Rudolf Nureyev often called it, the 'ballet of ballets'. It is the most accomplished and the most brilliant, as well as one of the most spectacular of the 19th century, and the most representative of the 'noble' style of classical dancing. Performed by Opera National de Paris in 2000.
