Friday, I went to the ballet with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sainfoin_fields. It was Swan Lake and at the end, when his power was broken, the sorcerer was weaving amongst the freed swans/maidens, dazzling in white, with their long lean delicate limbs and it made me think about The Last Unicorn somehow. It think it just lined up so nicely with when the unicorns are freed at last a gallop around King Haggard. That made this think about aging men and the capturing of symbols of maidenhood and keeping them trapped for his own validation. I'm not sure exactly what to say about this, but I find it interesting. Also, The Last Unicorn would make a gorgeous ballet.
