Hear new Clint Mansell score in 'Black Swan' trailer

by Ciaran Thompson

Inspired by Russian composer Tchaikovsky’s “Swan Lake,” Clint Mansell has written the score for the new psychological thriller film Black Swan, starring Natalie Portman and directed by Darren Aronofsky. The movie focuses on the extreme pressures dealing with modern ballet and apparently Portman has done 90 per cent of the dancing herself after training for only one year.

The soundtrack boasts music by The Chemical Brothers, Al Tourettes, Jakes, Kavsrave, Pete Min and Sepalcure featuring Angelica Best. A new music video/trailer for the film featuring Mansell’s score has been released (below). Black Swan opens in select theatres on December 3.
