Rating: B -- I have zero interest in ballet, but this film held my interest. It isn't so much about ballet itself, as much as it is about all the people involved in creating and presenting a ballet, and how they all work together so effectively. Full Review

Rating: 3/4 -- What makes Jody Lee Lipes documentary so interesting - even transfixing at times - is the fact that nothing is editorialized or explained. There are no interviews or voice-overs. Full Review

Rating: 3/4 -- There are few titles and no interviews or narration. Entire scenes go by without anyone speaking. Instead, Ballet 422 is a very intimate look at the process. Full Review

The tension of BALLET 422 is supplied mainly by Lipes’ consistently inventive and probing visuals and by what he chooses to elide. -- Grade: A-

Product Description:

Jody Lee Lipes documentary BALLET 422 follows choreographer Justin Peck as he conceives, casts, rehearses, and stages a show for the New York City Ballet. The filmmakers detail the hard work performed by many people who never get the public glory when the curtain rises, as well as the arduous physical effort professional ballet dancers put into their work.
