Isadora Duncan, the Biggest Dancer in the World

00:00:01 I! S! A! D! O! R! A!

00:02:26 I only knew her during the last year of her life.

00:04:24 But large symphony orchestras and Greek temples

00:06:25 - Isadora, aren´t you feeling well?. - I´ve never felt happier in my life.

00:08:23 I´ll dance my gratitude to you. I´ll dance all night.

00:11:47 Oh, my dear, I´ve just made the most wonderful discovery!

00:13:35 Don´t you pretend you´re not responsible. Just look at these unpaid bills!

00:19:54 The school became a grotesque mockery.

00:23:09 If not, I shall have to go to Russia, to the Bolshevists.

00:25:04 Gordon Selfridge, who ´d given it her as a going-away present

00:27:46 some leading members of the Communist Party.

00:31:01 bursting into this temple of art with your gang of hooligans?.

00:33:44 But Isadora pronounced all their charges preposterous

00:36:00 It was not a little ironical

00:40:56 - That doesn´t stop you drinking, does it?. - (Calling out)

00:42:45 I can´t tell you how often I´ve wished I was here.

00:44:32 That epoch is dead and Europe is the past.

00:46:22 - Fool! - # On a prairie sea... #

00:50:01 Tomorrow, I leave by plane to tour Germany.

00:51:55 Now in her middle 40s, engagements in Europe came with growing infrequency.

00:56:30 # But buggy-riding loving sure beats any machine

00:58:32 Oh, wait. Oh, leaves. Yes. Autumn leaves.

01:01:19 # Blackbird, blackbird

10:00:00 the Père Lachaise crematorium today
