Like the heroine of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale, whose magic shoes compel her to dance, Victoria Page—played by real-life ballerina Moira Shearer—finds herself driven to the breaking point by obsessive Russian impresario Lermontov (Anton Walbrook) when she is cast in his ballet The Red Shoes.

With its captivating behind-the-scenes insights into the creative process, fairy-tale enchantments, glorious Technicolor cinematography, and characters for whom art is more important than life itself, The Red Shoes is perhaps the definitive ballet film.

Filmography: The Tales of Hoffmann (1951), The Fighting Pimpernel (1950), The Red Shoes (1948), Black Narcissus (1947), A Matter of Life and Death (1946), I Know Where I'm Going! (1945), A Canterbury Tale (1944), The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp (1943), One of Our Aircraft Is Missing (1942).
