Quote The first trailer, exclusive to PEOPLE, for Sarah Adina Smith's third film sees two young women competing against one another at a prestigious ballet school in Paris while being pushed to their physical and emotional limits. The movie is based on the novel Bright Burning Stars by A.K. Small. Sounds familiar. Please report back here if you see it! Link to comment
dirac Posted October 3, 2021 Author Share Posted October 3, 2021 A review in the LA Times. Quote Based on the young adult book “Bright Burning Stars” by A.K. Small, “Birds of Paradise” follows two aspiring ballerinas as they fight for the top prize at a Paris ballet school. Kate (Diana Silvers) and Marine (Kristine Froseth) are both Americans in Paris, but they couldn’t be more different. Kate, hailing from Virginia, is a scholarship student and an inelegant outsider, while Marine, the daughter of the American ambassador, has been training for this honor her entire life. Her dance partner and twin, Ollie, recently died by suicide, and a desire to “win for Ollie” drives her to succeed by any means necessary. Link to comment
