5 out of 5 stars The most entertaining holiday entertainment ever!   November 22, 2008

Super fun and entertaining. I have watched it at least every year (first live, then VHS and now DVD). I am so glad the DVD version is out. Worth every penny!


5 out of 5 stars Best Nutcracker Ever!!   October 15, 2008

It would just not be Christmas without The Nutcracker Ballet and this is the definitive version for the Baby Boomer and post Baby Boomer generations. With all of the cultural references we can relate to from Barbie to GI Joe. From Television Yule Logs to Snow Ball Christmas Tree Lights. Oh yeah and the dancing is fantastic. Some of my favorites are Drosselmeyer and the Nutcracker Prince's dance, The Snowflakes, Maria's Mother and the Waltz of the Flowers and so many more moments too numerous to mention here. And even a Christmas Party that actually holds your attention all the way through. If you feel safer with the traditional Victorian versions of The Nutcracker we've seen over and over again, then this version might not be for you. But, if you want to start a new Christmas tradition at your house, buy The Hard Nut.


5 out of 5 stars Now This Is A Nutcracker To Be Seen!!   August 9, 2008

Mark Morris Dance Group is led by arguably the most talented choreographer of the day. His musicality is surpassed only by his wit and creativity. This irreverent adaptation of the Nutcracker is actually in many ways closer in intent to that of the original E. T. A. Hoffmann story. A must see!!!

Never can one predict how Morris will evolve even such as traditional work as the Nutcracker! Beautiful musical articulation and new interpretations of an ageless tradition. The dancers possess not only stunning technique, but a performance passion that reaches beyond the screen to one's heart - as if they were on stage in front of you. I viewed "The Hard Nut" at BAM in NYC it's openning night, and returned the following night for a repeat. Yet the filming of this production was an impressive art in and of itself.

If only I had such capabilities as a choreographer...:)

A delightful modern skit on a classic Tchaikovsky theme. More enjoyable if you see the classic version first to see how it has been changed but still retains the flavor of The Nutcracker.
