Violette and Mr. B

An interview with Violette Verdy and several masterclasses given by the retired prima ballerina, who was once revealed to the world by the great choreographer Roland Petit. She became the star dancer of the American City Ballet and inspired major ballets by Balanchine and Robbins. In "Violet and Mr. B"., the voluble and ebullient sixty-eight year old dancer is seen (and heard) coaching new stars such as Elisabeth Platel, Isabelle Guérin, Elisabeth Maurin or Lucia Lacarra.
