Isadora

“The Life and Many Loves of the Most Exciting Woman of Our Time”

Isadora Duncan (Vanessa Redgrave) dances barefoot in a loose tunic, and audiences across the U.S. and Europe call it scandalous. Karel Reisz follows her through lovers like Gordon Craig (James Fox) and Paris Singer (Jason Robards), through nude performances, debts and a pro-Soviet stance that rattles her admirers. She refuses to dress, marry or live as anyone expects, and every public choice risks her money, her audience and her name.
