Synopsis
NIJINSKY is a fascinating film that chronicles the lifes, the loves, and the madness of ballet's legendary and mercurial star Vaslav Nijinsky (George de la Pena). Onstage, Nijinsky, the most celebrated dancer of the early 20th century, was always in flawless control. Offstage, he was in turmoil, torn between the ballerina (Leslie Browne) he married and the domineering mentor (Alan Bates) he loved.
