company, Fox Searchlight has created some of the most beautiful, unique works of art; this can be seen through The Grand Budapest Hotel, Garden State, and Black Swan. A copious number of their films are praised for cinematography, storyline, and soundtracks.

Soundtrack “I’m a Lady” playing during the scene when the girls were training…
