1993Year Having trouble snagging tickets to the New York City Ballet's seasonal favorite, "The Nutcracker"? Do not despair. A $10 million film version of that production opens on Wednesday. The movie stars Macaulay Culkin, who among his other claims to fame danced in City Ballet's "Nutcracker" in 1988 while a student at the School of American Ballet.
