School of American Ballet & Peter Martins: A Dancer

School of American Ballet
"This valuable film surveys the training...at the Juilliard Theatre. There are views of...classes, and of a workshop rehearsal directed by Alexandra Danilova in which George Balanchine is seen tinkering with some of the choreography from the first act of 'Swan Lake'.... Footage was shot in 1972, a year in which the school's prize pupil was Fernando Bujones...shown extensively in class and rehearsal." --John Mueller
