Product Description: One of the greatest ballet dancers of his generation, Rudolph Nureyev is at the height of his powers in this intimate 1972 documentary portrait, which offers an unprecedented look at the training and dedication behind his electrifying art. Providing a unique glimpse into Nureyev s personality, preparation and techniques, I Am A Dancer includes excerpts from his performances in the classical ballets La Sylphide with Carla Fracci, and Sleeping Beauty with Lynn Seymour; in addition to sequences from the modern ballet Field Figures with Deanne Bergsma, and Frederick Ashton's Marguerite and Armand with his long-time partner Margot Fonteyn. Bonus features include Terese Capucilli (Juilliard, Martha Graham) on Nureyev and Fonteyn, Skylar Brandt (American Ballet Theatre) on I Am a Dancer, and 16-page booklet with new essay by arts critic Kenji Fujishima.
