Darren Aronofsky chats up Ellen Barkin at ‘Black Swan’ premiere after-party

Newly single and mustachioed director Darren Aronofsky was trying his best to work the room at the “Black Swan” premiere after-party the other night at the St. Regis. The filmmaker, who has seemingly bounced back since his recent split with Rachel Weisz after a five-year engagement, spent an hour chatting up Ellen Barkin. Attendees included cast members Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis and Winona Ryder and guests Chace Crawford, Debra Winger and Emmanuelle Chriqui, who chatted about the explicit love scene between Portman and Kunis and Aronofsky’s new, pencil-thin mustache.
