“She is by far the most committed, dedicated, focused actor i have ever worked with.  a year before we started making the movie, on her own dime for 365 days she trained for eight hours, swam a mile a day, learned ballet, became a prima ballerina, and then when we shot, every single day she was in every single scene in every shot, and she shared her heart, soul and spirit with me and with the world.” 

- Darren Aronofsky on working with Natalie Portman for Black Swan.

“For you, every person is like a planet and two different planets can never become one. Two people together will always be: one plus one. 
I preferred to think of us as bubbles, because when they touch, they merge into one another like when two people make love. But now I know what you meant.
Two people together will always be one plus one.”
