Me, Isadora Duncan ...

to devote myself to worship of Art and Beauty ...

as well as celibacy.

I will never marry.

I will only obey the requirements Truth and Beauty.

Simple CRM - Online Customer Management Free test: http://crm-pour-pme.fr

To seal this pact, I burn the marriage certificate

of my parents.

Beauty is Truth. Truth, Beauty.

That's all we know on earth,

and all what we need to know.

My first concept of the dance movement ...

was born from the rhythm of the waves.

And my first perception music...

sighs of the wind in the giant redwoods.

Because I live the day in front of an ocean.

And the major events of my life

occurred At the seaside.

I was born under the star of Aphrodite ...

love godess.

Black child, black child

In the country I will see again

The sun shines in every season

We work, or do we improvise a concert?

Black child, goodbye

We are very jazz, I see ... We continue ?

Where was I?

"Born under the star of Aphrodite ..."

I was born under the star of Aphrodite, Goddess of Love.

Born, too, in the sea ...

In the sea ?

On me seems more normal.

None of this is normal.

I want to tell the truth about myself but I'm talking about roses.

We will do great literature later.

Let's write a thousand words, Okay ?

We did nothing yesterday.

You still drank water.

No. I just saw your statements of account.

Dear Roger, I will never have the pen of Walter Scott.

I am not only a poor dancer.

I only know dance.

Put a little dog on it!

Good! That's enough !

The next one !

I'm dancing to you my waltz of Chopin?

You would dance well cancan, if you put yourself in it.

You have very pretty legs!

Come back...

when you will know how to use it.

It's okay, you're beautiful, you are beautiful !

And, no jokes ...

Neither lecture nor Greek stuff!

I obey you, but if I please, you will pay me.

Insofar where you attract the public.

Dog, you hear me!

I want 300 dollars for 3 weeks.

One hundred dollars.

I need

$ 300. I take my whole family in Europe.

- 200 - We are 4.

200!

250 is the maximum. Now, go dance the encore.

I'll have my 300 bucks?

250 is the ceiling.

I will have my $ 300, Yes or no ?

- 250! - 300!

Play the encore!

He's missing his promise!

I am poor and I make my family live.

He refuses to pay me!

Give him his dough!

Shut up !

Give him his cake!

Three hundred...

Say, honey, I have an idea...

Dance your Greek thing, then the cancan,

it will do a funny contrast.

You have just paid my trip to Europe

and that from all my family.

Craftsman of my destiny!

It's only a beginning. You are liked to the public. You will make a fortune here.

I am looking for my destiny, no fortune.

Roger, come, I need you !

What is it ?

Who is that man ?

- Which ? - The man with the glasses.

How would I know?

You know

everyone here.

It is important ?

Very. He is superb.

He is a little fat!

Come, we have to work.

I want to know him.

He is a young Adonis.

Adonis! It probably is a master driver.

Do not be snobbish!

Do not be extravagant.

I am naturally extravagant. You must have noticed.

Warning !

Dirty metic!

It was him !

My Adonis from the terrace!

A mad person !

He put your Memoirs upside down?

Your Memories ... not mine!

What kind of automobile was it?

How would I know?

A Bugatti, I believe.

A Bugatti! What a beautiful name!

Is it an Italian?

To see how he leads ... He almost killed us!

We die only when it's time.

This is not a consolation.

Oh yes... After all, he missed us.

It may be an omen. He is the messenger of the gods.

In 32 days, we will be in England.

Think about it!

And that this idea enchants you ...

If Raymond does not help to do the luggage, we will miss the boat.

I play the flute to soften our task.

But Raymond is working!

He surrounds us with beauty All the day.

Continue playing the flute.

Will we need all these covers?

It's going to be too heavy!

We will be hot on board.

We will live in Spartans and poets will comfort us.

If you have to freeze in the attics,

take the blankets.

We have to be tough, according to Nietzsche,

and tend towards the Infinite.

"Here lie Europe delivered to the earth and in heaven, waiting

"from his kidnapper!"

London, Paris, Berlin, Florence, Athens ...

We will take the museums assault

like the Parisians the Bastille !

We will return to America forgotten Greek art!

We will light the flame!

"Islands of Greece ...

"Islands of Greece ...

"What loved and sang the ardent Sapho ...

"Cradle of the arts of war and peace. "

I need more space.

Champagne ... well deserved.

I would prefer milk.

An amphitheater, as in Greece.

The most democratic form.

We can see everywhere.

Failing that, I would be happy

to welcome you to my home.

We will do the whole program:

Elizabeth, Raymond, and my mother at the piano.

I am the star and I administer ...

Of course ... All together.

We would build you an amphitheatre ?

In London, who is our gratitude

is Mrs. Campbell

who is our patron here.

In the street, my outfit causes amazement.

But, enough about me ...

Raymond and I were dancing at Kensington Square.

He played the flute and I danced.

A beautiful lady pops up, dressed in black fur ...

"From which part of the globe are you coming? "

"From no part of the globe," have I said,

"We come from the moon."

I am fascinated ... Where did you learn to dance?

I was already dancing in the belly of my mother.

Thrilling!

It was!

My father, eminent man but unstable, we had left.

My mother was inconsolable.

She did not tolerate that oysters and champagne,

Aphrodite's dear ...

So I danced as soon as I was conceived.

It's a metaphor, of course ?

No, it's my predestination.

Come here !

What is it ?

Come here !

Another one of your fancies?

Do you think Mary loves me?

Of course she loves you.

It is attached to you.

She does not let me do anything.

What for example ?

Lie next to me.

My jacket will be crumpled.

Removes it.

It's better no ?

What she do not let you do it?

Dance, for example. She does not want me to dance.

She keeps pushing you to give a recital.

Relax ! I think I an ironing board.

I'm not comfortable.

Poor little Roger ...

The water boils.

As soon as a recital project is about to end,

she tries to dissuade me.

Dissuade?

I know ! I am old and fat ...

Here we are again!

Do you think I do not know?

I will never dance again.

The gods give and take again.

You are neither old nor fat.

But if. I am old and fat ... Ridiculous.

A cup of tea ?

You do not understand. You do not have a heart.

You want some tea or not ?

Give me brandy.

Tea would do you more good.

What makes you feel good to most people

is a deadly poison for me.

This is the case of tea.

I still have beautiful arms, is not it ?

I can be an old cloudy,

I still have beautiful arms.

In a woman, the arms are what withered last.

I have a check!

Pack up. We leave for Paris.

Paris? To do what ?

What does it matter!

So think ... Paris at dawn!

Do not worry.

This check comes straight Treasury of the gods.

En route to Paris !

Did you pay the hotel bill?

To do what ? To be again without money?

It will work out alone.

Forward, forward, always forward!

What is it ? What do you have ?

Deirdre and Patrick!

What is it ? Tell me, I can help you.

Stop the car!

What is it, Isadora?

I do not like these tunnels.

But we are outdoors, open air.

We are going to Paris.

We are going to Paris !

Let us cradle

Joyfully, happily,

Life is a dream

It's him ! Mary, it's him!

My God, I will not see him again. I have to see him again!

Let's find out at the restaurant.

You think ?

I would never have thought of it.

You are very beautiful, today.

- Today ? - Especially.

Because I am rich and in love.

We are looking of a handsome young man.

He was here?

Have you seen it ? He is divine.

I would have liked to know him.

Martin Bedford is here. He will join us.

It is an artist ?

- He aspires to be. - Brilliant?

He promises. He is very rich.

How are you ?

Beautifully.

I wanted to meet you.

My mother saw you to dance in London.

Continue ...

Did she adore me? Did I score a turning point in his life?

No, i dont think so.

So, why talk about it?

You have entered the legend during your lifetime.

Enter the legend in my lifetime!

I am reduced an ugly common place.

Your book is moving forward?

I do not know. I blacken pages.

It's new, this modesty ...

Will the lamb become a lion?

Do we all have to be lions?

Of course.

Because I love lions!

Stop after this sentence.

No, no, do not stop!

Dance again.

Who is here ? Who is it ?

My name is Craig.

I am a decorator, an artist. A bit of theater, like you.

You do not know me... not yet.

I saw you dancing

in front of your blue hangings in Paris. I could not believe it.

My own ideas, to the letter.

I had to see you alone.

In a crowd, it would have been awful.

I needed to be sure.

Sure of what ?

From you.

Are you now?

Certain.

You are extraordinary.

No, I have an appointment.

Come on! With whom ?

My mother.

Your mother ?

The meeting between Gordon Craig and Isadora Duncan

could not take place, Miss Duncan was having tea with his mother.

I was spoken to of your family circus.

It's not a circus.

An artist does not have to do from a family.

I do not have any and will never have one.

I have my mother.

She is a great artist. She understands me.

I have a work to do: create a world ...

Create a whole universe on stage. A new unit

for the actor, the decorator and the dancer

where you, the dancer, will not only one with my light and my air.

You are the one I imagined.

The universe you live in on stage is my creation.

Come in... make yourselves at home.

Do not stay here, indecisive ...

Look...

It's your decor ... completed.

That's wonderful.

I designed this for the first act of Hamlet.

The distribution of light is the same as yours.

- It's beautiful. - More than beautiful ... much more.

It's a scenic place completely new.

When you see yourself dancing, I could not believe my eyes !

I saw come to life my own visions.

I invented you ...

And I did not know your existence.

Ignoring each other,

like two stars evolving in the same sphere ...

Now their roads crossed each other.

Destiny has brought them together.

Stand in the light.

You are different from what I had been told.

What were you told?

There are two theses ...

According to one, you are a teacher from Milwaukee

who is frolicking on stage

barefoot in a suggestive way ...

That's what they think?

Some, yes.

Others claim

that your dance is shameless

but you are a great artist.

And you,

What do you say ?

- What I see escapes them. - That is to say ?

Priestess, the revolutionary.

Really ? And what else ?

Being the 2 halves of a puzzle, we have to work together,

we need each other.

Twin souls. Like a brother and a sister

united in glory!

"So alike that no mortal could not distinguish them ...

"Black as night,

"their armor ... whites like snow, their steeds. "

Enough of frolics. Do not move.

And remove those damn sandals!

Bacchantes do not wear them.

Admirable!

Yes I know.

You belong to Me.

I was thinking...

I have not stopped repeating to everybody

that if it is a sacred thing, it's the human body.

I thought I knew what I was talking about ... wrongly.

How would I have known before you know

Why have not I been told how beautiful are men?

If I capture you before he moves,

the moonlight will be permanent.

Will you let me paint too?

The painter is me. You are the dancer.

Dance to immobilize the moon.

O moon, be quiet ...

while my lover capture your light for eternity.

O moon, interrupt your run

while my lover is trapping you.

So ? She stopped?

No hope.

She obeys only virgins.

Moon, I challenge you!

Do not walk on it, you ruin everything!

Fuckings!

They are beautiful.

They spoil the drawing!

I paint you in red: you'll be the scarlet woman of the Bible.

Food!

Do not tell me anything, I know: bread and savels.

Inexpensive, but I eat your part if you do not want it.

- And to drink ? - Cough syrup.

I saw one of your posters.

"Release for cause Miss Duncan's indisposition ".

I do not really feel good.

What day is it ?

Friday.

We are here for a week, already.

Mom must be distraught.

Without speaking

from your impresario.

Nothing can be done... Miss Duncan is suffering!

It's very bad. You are a woman without morality.

That's right, it's true.

Can we die of love?

What comes next?

- Continue ... - I miss words.

invariably you miss words.

You, you know the lyrics?

All evening, you have listened.

Mr. Bedford, you who are a confrere,

sing something.

I think I know: Everybody loves my Baby.

Sing it.

No, no stop! It's atrocious!

Where did you learn this horror?

Sorry...

It's inept! Inepte!

A reporter asked me what I thought about jazz.

I answered :

"Jazz is the pied-de-nez from America to Isadora Duncan ".

Isadora, I'm coming back.

We are going to Paris !

It will be tomorrow.

Ah, tomorrow is hypothetical.

Does the boss know his name?

No, but he dines here often.

So, Paris will wait. Drink something.

No, let's go home.

Archer gives an evening ...

I'm tired, I'm coming back.

Good. Send me the driver.

I'm going to get drunk like a flock of thrushes.

I did not care to return with her.

Alone with women, I believe myself in the convent.

What are we doing now?

You are the !

You came to see me! You came to see me!

He does not stay!

He is on his way for the antipodes.

Let's go walking in the wind.

What pushed you to come in this lost hole?

Mother wanted me to steal to the eyes of the curious.

There is a lot to steal.

You know how does she call me?

The vile seducer ...

She always calls you like this: it's your nickname.

In the actors' stage,

the gold cloth becomes a train of gold

who, starting from the shoulders King and Queen

covers the entire bottom of the board.

In the bedroom scene,

he becomes the hanging through which

Hamlet stabs Polonius.

So, although Claudius do not be on stage,

his shadow must hover over Hamlet.

Yes ! That's wonderful !

To try this, Moscow is ideal.

I can not wait to see him.

As soon as you get rid of that, come join me.

Yes, yes, I will come.

He has dark on me

and tried to kill me.

We had never spoken, he has dark

in this beautiful Bugatti.

I would buy one, If I had money.

You have some...

To pay for a dinner, not a Bugatti.

Are you rich?

I would not say that.

You said it rich.

I have a certain ease.

If you have "a certain ease",

What do you buy me a Bugatti?

What better use of your money than to please me?

I know others.

Let him leave my table.

Be less likely!

I do not want him at my table anymore!

Tell him to leave.

Should we wait for you?

No. Someone must stay close to her.

Do not talk about me that tone.

Why you say such things?

Why do you such things?

If it's a girl, call her Deirdre.

- This will invigorate you. - I feel good.

You must rest... for the baby.

I am not tired.

Mom, stop knitting!

It's better than being idle. Try ...

I do not want.

I can not live surrounded by women,

drugs, knits. I am an artist.

Ted too.

If it was a man he would be here, near you.

Mum, I do not want him here.

I do not intend to marry him,

even if he was not married.

He understands it. Can not you do the same?

Mom, please ...

Do not Cry, I need you.

I need you, do not Cry.

Of course, I dream of a life common with Ted and the child.

A life together ... I am not a monster.

But I will not let myself abuse by a dream.

In six months, I would hate him.

Do not Cry.

Help me ! Help me !

Help me ! Do something !

Can not you to give him something?

Must wait. These are the first pains.

Must wait.

He said that two days ago.

He does not want to do anything to help me ... it's easy!

Old sadist! It does not matter to you that I suffer!

None of them wants to help me!

Give it to me ! Give it to me !

I arrived there!

Without the help of anyone!

I arrived there all alone !

Come in.

It's you, Pim!

Can we see it?

Not exactly ... but I'm going see what I can do.

Who is here ?

You have a visit.

Oh, where did you get it ... How did you find him?

Oh, it's Pim!

It is only me... Who did you take me for?

I thought you were the man the most beautiful of the earth.

I'm !

Not the one I was hoping for.

This one is called Bugatti.

A car brand ...

That's all we know of him.

He almost killed us, Roger and me.

The ugly journalist came back.

Whoever wants to buy your love letters.

Roger sends you this deposit.

Oh, that one, really!

In fact, I want to show you my new system. Infallible!

In the horseshoe,

the major arcana.

You sell your love letters?

It would be inappropriate.

I do not cut only if you remove Death.

I always take it off. I do not like it either.

Promise me that "Bugatti" will come out.

The past... the present ... the future.

The consultant ... meeting ...

the Emperor ... Interesting.

I like it... It's the mysterious man.

He is the courage, generosity, power ...

authority, success.

It's not Bugatti, it's Singer!

Miss Duncan ... I wanted to see you dance 12 times.

It was you who sent me all these roses?

Yes. I wanted to tell you ...

It's not at all my favorite flowers.

Let me finish my speech.

I paid dearly for me to write it.

- Do you have it on you? - Yes, but I know it by heart.

What do you think ?

He is excellent.

That is my opinion.

Sit.

It is not finished. There is something else.

A testimony of my esteem.

Is it for my beauty and my talent?

Or do you pay in advance?

Maybe the three ...

Is this how you spend all your fortune?

Not all... I'm not going fast enough.

Maybe you could help me?

Are you fabulously rich?

Fabulously.

It's a beginning...

Singer ... sewing machines?

Yes, among others.

The beautiful brunette who does not leave you eyes,

You know her ?

Who is she ?

Nobody.

She must be someone ...

She dances well.

Necklace that you gave me...

It was just a trinket.

I have sold it.

I have sold it.

I do not like jewelry. Does it bother you?

Bored? Why ? He was yours.

Have you had any a good price ?

Yes. What to repay the mortgage.

On my school, in Berlin.

Do you have a school?

I do not need money only for that.

I live a very simple life.

I do not sell myself. I dance to make the school live.

She lives because I win.

And donations.

That's all.

Your students do not pay?

This is not a dance class that I lead.

I do not want of rich kids.

They do not need art.

The poor need it.

Their sensuality is freer.

We do not pay like in a dance class.

It's not a dance school?

No. To dance is to live, and that's what I want ...

A school of life.

You are going to have

of the visit.

You owe me a dance.

Will you excuse me for a moment?

Madam goes away.

Please excuse me, Miss Duncan.

Call me Isadora ...

You do that every morning ?

Spend time

to pamper you?

A healthy mind in a healthy body.

You have a lot mistresses?

Not at this moment.

And when you tire of them?

I snap my fingers and they volatilize into a blue cloud.

A wizard ?

Could you, like Zeus, you metamorphose

bull or swan,

and remove your nymphs in a golden nimbus?

Yes. All that is just a breeze

As for you,

I will lock you up in a silver bezel

that I will wear on me, in order to look at you

when I'm sad.

It will be necessary to let me out to dance.

I alone have the right to contemplate you.

But, look at this ...

I have more than one trick in my bag.

I sell them, you know it.

That you will not sell it.

- Who is it ? - A magic key.

- Who opens ...? - A new school.

You offer me a school?

Or ? Where is she ?

16 km from Paris. She is superb.

Let's go see it!

She will not run away.

Tell me ... She is tall ?

About 600 hectares.

Beautiful lawns, and calm.

It seemed made for you.

- I jumped on it! - You are a magician!

If we made a child?

I want to do my children with beautiful men.

"I love you I adore you...

"Mine, my lovely, my wonderful ...

"My sublime dancer ...

"Signed: Doreen Montgomery, secretary,

"for Mr. Paris Singer, absent."

To her only, it would be worth a fortune!

Listen, it looks good.

On each side,

we have the Cavalier and the Popess.

It means love, conjugated with

triumph in art.

Good start.

We dare not believe it.

Incompatible ... art and love destroy each other.

It may be possible a time, with certain beings,

but it would be a stroke of vein.

We start again.

Arms raised ...

We lower our heads.

Everything is tense ... to the clouds.

Do you tend ...

Tighten your fingers well ...

Come eat strawberries!

Here, everyone!

There are strawberries!

You have been very wise. Save yourself!

There will be some for everyone !

You will never understand what I'm trying to do.

I want to instill in them the meaning beauty, simplicity.

And you bring them strawberries in Rolls-Royce!

We can not have everything.

I have to go to Nice, the week next. Come with me !

What purpose ?

Oh, I do not know ... The yacht needs repairs.

A yacht? I can go to sea?

Good idea...

But, without me. I am seasick.

It's grotesque, right?

But ... will you come?

Leaving Elizabeth all alone ?

Hire someone, you will have your hands free.

Oh ! I hurt myself Knee !

Kathy broke her leg!

Come quickly, mom! Quick !

She hurt her leg.

Right away.

Let's have dinner together.

Patrick Michael Singer,

my son and heir, will have a home ...

We will go to England.

Deirdre!

Mom, come see the pretty house!

One two Three, four five six...

seven eight nine ten...

I go !

Where is Deirdre? She's gone?

Is she among the candies? No.

Patrick, where is your little sister? Help me find it.

Is she under my pillow? No.

Under the bedspreads?

No more... Where has she gone ?

In the garden, maybe ...?

Where is she ?

I've got you !

Here she is again!

Ah. Very good...

And now, under the arch, the first time.

It's good !

To me.

No. I'm still entitled to a shot.

I always forget...

When we pass a hoop,

we play again.

Do you feel lonely here?

I like the company.

England is very depopulated.

I do not speak of worldly life.

You hit my ball. It's allowed ?

This is the game

And now you will be at my mercy.

What a pleasure it would do you!

You know, you make me the difficult life, Isadora ...

on the worldly plane.

It would be different if we were married.

We are not.

Why not ?

In principle.

Who, having read the marriage office, get married,

deserves his fate!

I'm entitled to another round.

You are ruthless ... do you know ?

What do you want exactly?

Work here.

I offered you to hire an orchestra.

I do not need it.

Perfect.

I will find you a pianist.

A young and handsome pianist.

This way.

Coward!

A good pianist, I was told.

He is repulsive!

That's what I was told.

I will hide it behind a screen.

He looks like a frog.

Why forbid me to see you,

Isadora?

Just play up what I tell you to stop.

Play.

Isadora, I did not come only because of you.

I am sorry but,

physically you repug me.

Same time, tomorrow.

We are sea lions.

Throw us some bread.

Catch, Deidre!

It's time ?

You have to take it out bath.

Come, my frog.

I organized our life for the next twelve months.

How about Switzerland this winter ?

Then?

I envisioned the Nile, in spring.

Have you ever been there?

I would like to show you the pyramids.

Then?

Oh, I do not know ... New York, Paris.

Select ... Where you want.

Nowhere. We will not go anywhere.

You are bored here. We need to change air.

It will not force you to stop dancing.

If that's what worries you, we can take Armand.

I did not have you yet never seen. You're handsome !

Your soul radiates in your eyes.

In your eyes ... brood the flame of genius!

Oh, my frog!

My little frog!

My frog legs!

Calm down

I hope it will do me good.

It is an excellent treatment.

Zurich's results are very encouraging.

Paris ... I have to talk to you.

When will I feel it the effects ?

In a week or two.

I have something new I need to talk to you.

Turn off the power for a moment ...

What do you have to say to me?

I want to talk to you one to one.

Detach me and leave.

No ! You must stay still

ten minutes so that your molecules are stabilizing.

Ten minutes of absolute calm ...

Good evening, doctor.

I am offered

to do a tour for Gross.

I can not to refuse him

I'm sad to leave you, but I have to go.

I'll go on Tuesday.

Good. That's settled.

It does not bother you?

I am in full treatment!

Good. We will talk about it again.

You take the Frog Prince?

Sorry ?

I do not understand.

You do not understand !

"History of the Frog Prince:

"Only the Princess had detected his true nature ".

My servants told me everything!

You made me

to spy !

We tumble in my greenhouse, we roll

in my cars!

How vulgar! How bourgeois!

I pay these people well. They are faithful to me.

I am faithful too!

This is the dominant trait of my character.

But I like !

I am in love of a genius.

His soul radiates in his eyes!

Only I can fill his aspirations.

Go away

and take the Frog!

You have no soul! Or...

the soul of a shopkeeper!

And you...

you have the soul of a whore!

Organ player of Barbary!

What a horrible mess!

I do not give up so easily.

I will give myself a new life!

Love and Bugatti.

A valley full of flowers and happiness.

If you cut it, it's inefficient.

It brings bad luck.

Soul of the universe ...

radiates in me!

Here it is ! The death !

The first card that I return.

It also means "harvest".

The suitor ...

I'll see him tomorrow.

More love! To be jaded.

Second card ...

the moon.

Death over the Moon, what does it bode?

Death by the water.

For months, I had presentiments ...

Why do not I taken into account?

That morning, the nurse was striving to silence the children,

of fear that they do not wake me up.

I tell him : "Let them play.

"Where would we be without the sound of their voices? "

A psychic had one day predicted

that I would lose what I had more expensive in the world.

I did not listen to it.

I had hallucinations, I did not pay attention.

I had not seen Singer since 4 months, I received a note from him ...

"Come see me". I went there.

On the road, in the car, holding children in my arms,

I was full new hope.

How many times

did I hear the voice

who advised against going there!

But I thought

that the presence of children would arrange everything.

Where are they now,

my poor ...

my fragile ...

my beautiful children.

Singer had to talk to me.

We sent the children visit Paris.

I kissed them.

I kissed the window there where their lips had landed.

This cold contact I chilled lips.

There are pains that kill.

This tragedy was put an end to all hope

of a normal and happy life.

Since then...

I have only one desire: to flee ...

Escape the horror of this drama.

My life is just a leak Perpetual.

I have not been that a ghost ship

on a phantom ocean.

The moments of my life

that I evoke with the purest joy ...

are the ones I have consecrated teaching children.

I was going to come back.

In the spring of 1921,

I received a dispatch of the Soviet Government ...

an admirable simplicity.

"Only the Russian government can you understand. Stop.

"Come to our home. We will build you a school. "

Also, I say goodbye to the old world

and set me on the road to approach the new.

I had come with great ambitions.

I had been promised a school

and a thousand children.

But the times were hard.

All came to be fed and housed.

"The children are homeless, hungry, "they told me.

"Dance is a luxury. Give them some bread. "

I took the resolution

to feed the body and the spirit of these children.

The government did not offer me

than the local.

I said that I would only take 50 children.

I could not hope to feed more.

There, in a big room of an icy palace,

devoid of its radiators,

without beds, without mattresses,

and whose furniture had been requisitioned,

I opened my new school of dance.

It's Mary calling you.

I found !

I have the address!

Mr. Bugatti!

"Bugatti". She found it.

Bugatti! I arrive ! I arrive !

I witnessed the famine and the misery of Moscow.

But the life of an artist differs from that of a saint.

I found a way to forget.

I made friends among poets, artists.

They alone had vodka and champagne.

The idol of this generation

was the poet Serge Essenine.

The first time I he heard it, he recited a poem.

He speaks of the country where he was born.

He says, "Like you, I am a soul in pain. "

He has dedicated this poem to you, Madam.

I know...

I know.

I did not know that a poet could be so beautiful ...

than his verses.

Tell him.

What's he saying ?

That he ruined his life. That love

is his only hope.

My golden fleece!

This is a book.

This is a pencil.

The pencil is red.

Is this pencil blue?

No, he's red.

It's not the kind of conversation

I want to have with Serge.

How do you say : "I want to make love" ?

How do you say "I adore you"?

Write it down.

And you have beautiful thighs?

You're welcome !

Serge has wonderful thighs.

Write ... "I adore you. You have beautiful thighs. "

We are going to make love like tigers. Yes ?

Tigers from all countries, unite!

Where were you ? Isadora was very sad.

Purrs.

Take me in Your arms.

Husband...?

Not my husband.

That one, husband?

Husband!

Farewell, husband!

No, the poor ...

Isadora will bite you very strong !

Farewell ... old man.

Poor old...

Farewell, young man!

Goodbye everyone!

And this one !

Goodbye everyone!

We do not need you, Isadora!

Goodbye, old life!

Children?

No, not the children!

No, not them!

Not the children!

Have mercy!

Your husband is dead!

Your children are dead!

Your husband, it's me!

Your children, it's me!

What does this man do? Who is he ?

The man who is in the workshop.

Ah, him ...

You saw it ?

I'm talking about ... Bugatti.

No, I missed it! He had just left.

I offer you 1200 francs for the whole. Okay with you ?

I sell everything.

What is going on, Isadora?

I made a decision.

I sell everything. My lease, my property, everything!

I'm going back to Paris.

I'm going to wire Elizabeth

to bring back 12 the best students from Moscow.

We will give a recital and I open a new school.

Wonderful!

Is not it ?

Mary, I'm going to get back at work. For my salvation.

Here they are !

What a handsome couple !

Sensational !

She has a US passport or Russian?

Who knows ?

Stand still or you will be dealing with me!

Welcome to America!

Shut up ! Silence!

Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Essenine will talk to you.

I bring you the salvation of the young Soviet Union.

During the Revolution, you tell us have been of great help

by sending us food and blankets.

I come to reciprocate.

The soul of America and the soul of Russia

must strive to understand each other

Miss Duncan, how are you doing to stay so young?

I eat and I drink what I like

and I have a handsome man for husband.

Why were you refused? the entry visa?

In the eyes of the officials, a Russian passport

make you a criminal bloodthirsty.

Why become Russian?

Because I like a Russian

and that in America, unless you are very, very rich,

a man and a woman can not live together

only if they are married.

- I have enough ! - No wait...

That's enough !

Serge will tell you some poems.

Miss Duncan will give recitals of ... Russian dance,

and Mr. Essenine recite his poems.

Forgive me this question

but we say that during the crossing,

your husband has brutalized you.

There was a party and in good Russians

we broke some objects.

Two hideous lamps.

It was a service to give back to humanity.

Are you communist

Miss Duncan?

Serge and I being artists, we are true revolutionaries.

A revolution should not be political.

If people did not listen that their souls and their hearts,

they would know how to live

That's the real revolution.

Come tell your poems.

I come.

Poems in Russian ... It will be a prodigious paper!

Tell them I'm coming.

I arrive !

Serge will tell you a poem.

He embodies the Soviet Union. Me, America.

Do not you hold her hand, as I did?

Are you Bolshevik?

I am a poet.

This morning, Isadora bought me that.

It's ... an American poem.

It's beautiful.

Beautiful...

Everything is fine ?

I will say my first poem ... to America.

He will do damage!

Do not panic! It's just a toy.

They are not

real balls!

He is not charged.

A calamity crossed our shores ...

A plague

fell down on our beautiful country,

Under the form two Bolsheviks,

Communists fomentors of troubles ...

who should not have come here. They do not have the right!

We should chase them in the name of Jesus Christ!

My friends ! My friends !

Send them home!

I repeat...

Send them back to Russia rot souls

of their compatriots!

It is true that there, they have no soul.

Return to Russia!

Red dirty!

This woman claims "dancer"!

I saw it !

His costume would not be enough

to stuff a crutch!

We do not need you in Boston!

It's a Red whose conduct makes you blush!

We do not want you! Get out of the stage!

We do not want of this kind of creature here!

This woman and the bastard of Gorky ...

They stink!

Go away, dragged!

My body is beautiful ... my body is free!

Yes, we stink!

An infection !

But not

like you. You, it's your soul that stinks!

I have a pure heart ...

Leave Boston! We do not want you here!

Go away ! You are dead !

I am a Red and I am pure!

My body and my soul are pure!

100 times purer than your half-naked dancers!

You're dead !

You are gray! The people of Boston are gray!

This theater is gray! Gray people

are afraid to blossom.

Fear of artists who flourish in freedom!

Back ! Back, the corpses!

I wanted to dance for you

"Delivery of the Russian people "...

I was thinking that America would understand ...

Have you forgotten our own revolution?

We were unleashed, so ...

Do not be tamed!

You are rich, Isadora, rich!

Do not be sad. I'm coming with you to Paris.

I drew 800 francs more to this guy

who was trying to pluck you.

What did you do ?

You betrayed me.

How?

My beautiful stage curtains.

You sold them. You stripped me!

You said in front of me that you wanted to sell them.

Way of talking.

You've known me for 15 years and you do not understand me.

You sell the only place where I could have been happy.

You were decided.

But I did not want to.

It is still time. I will say that you have changed your mind.

You wanted to go to Paris and you rushed.

You sold me for 30 deniers!

It's wrong.

If you really loved me, you would understand ...

I can not stand your way anymore to direct my life

and myself... You destroyed me !

Judas!

Come quickly... I need you !

I came to see if I could help you.

Archer invites us all to go to his place.

He is aware.

It's an evening?

Not exactly.

Oh, let's go!

To free oneself from tyranny objects, it's watering!

A being loves me again and cares about me.

You still love me ?

With a poodle fidelity.

So, we will ...

to celebrate that !

Mary and I won a lot of money.

I'm so happy !

Roger, you will be our rider.

We will dance all night!

I'll put this old dress ...

She is lovely.

What a good surprise !

Hold my cigarette.

Where are you taking me?

Look !

Faster ! Faster !

It's Duncan dancing!
