Set in Thirties London, Ballet Shoes tells the exhilarating tale of orphans Pauline, Petrova and Posy Fossil, who are adopted by an eccentric explorer, Gum, and raised as sisters by his selfless niece. The timeless and uplifting story revolves around each girl's struggle to fulfill her dreams: Pauline longs to be an actress, Petrova yearns to be an aviator, and Posy seems born to be a ballerina. But when Gum disappears, the money runs out - and the girls have a fight on their hands. Their struggle to balance personal ambition with the need to survive physically, emotionally, and financially, proves moving and comic by turns.

Die Waisenkinder Pauline, Petrova und Posy Fossil wachsen bei Onkel Matthew auf. Eines Tages beschliessen sie, berühmt zu werden, um in die Geschichte einzugehen und dem Namen Fossil gerecht zu werden. Sie treten in eine Ballettschule ein, wo sich ihre Begabungen in verschiedene Richtungen entwickeln. Und der Weg zu Ruhm und zu einem Eintrag in die Geschichtsbücher ist steinig...

Ganz solider Film mit einer hübschen Emma Watson.

Hab gehofft, Emma Watson bekäme nach den ganzen Potter Filmen (die ich auch als Erwachsener mag) mal eine anständige Rolle. Aber ein Ballet-Drama? Oh Graus!
