Based on a Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale about a pair of
enchanted crimson ballet slippers, 'The Red Shoes' follows the beautiful Vicky
Page (Moira Shearer), a young socialite who loves ballet, the rising composer
Julian Craster (Marius Goring) whom she loves, and her dictatorial director,
Boris Lermontov (Anton Walbrook).
A glorious Technicolor epic that influenced generations of
filmmakers, artists, and aspiring ballerinas, The Red Shoes intricately weaves
backstage life with the thrill of performance.
A young ballerina (Moira Shearer) is torn between two forces: the composer who loves her (Marius Goring), and the impresario determined to fashion her into a great dancer (Anton Walbrook).
