Donn. Dancer of the 20th century is this fascinating documentary that really digs into Jorge Donn's life. It's like a visual archive that rescues him from the shadows, showcasing not just his dance but the raw emotion behind it. The film balances between glory and tragedy, especially his partnership with Béjart, and it’s all wrapped in a haunting atmosphere that makes you feel every moment. The pacing is reflective, almost meditative, allowing you to soak in the beauty of his performances and the weight of his struggles. The archival footage is carefully selected, pulling you into a world that feels both distant and intimate.
This documentary is somewhat hard to come by in the collector circuit, with limited releases and a niche audience. Initial formats have included DVD and some rare VHS copies, which are becoming increasingly scarce. There's definitely a growing interest among collectors, especially for those who appreciate dance history and the artistic storytelling that this film achieves.
