Centered around a ballet performance of Hans Christian Andersen’s dark fairy tale, a ballerina (Moira Shearer) is torn between her love for a ballet director (Anton Walbrook) and a composer (Marius Goring). With impressive choreography by Robert Helpmann, spectacular performances by the Lermontov Ballet Company, and stunning cinematography, The Red Shoes is arguably Powell and Pressburger’s most famous film and a classic film of British cinema. Not to be missed.
