Isadora (1968)
IMDb plot summary: A biography of the dancer Isadora Duncan, the 1920s dancer who forever changed people's ideas of ballet.
Directed by Karel Reisz. Starring Vanessa Redgrave, John Fraser, James Fox, and Jason Robards.
I get pieces of what this film is trying to do. I just kind of don't care. Old Isadora presents a much more interesting narrative than the young free-spirited dancer we spend most of our time with. I wish we had seen more of a transition from the latter to the former, even though the contrast is fairly interesting on its own. It just ultimately didn't do much for me.
How it entered my Flickchart:
Isadora < The Miracle Worker
Isadora > Silver Streak
Isadora > Pepito and the Magic Lamp
Isadora < Mickey Blue Eyes
Isadora > Snakes on a Plane
Isadora > Winter's Bone
Isadora < Bridge to Terabithia
Isadora < The Women
Isadora > Sweet and Lowdown
Isadora < Peter Pan (2003)
Isadora < Roman J. Israel, Esq.
Isadora > Kiki's Delivery Service
Final spot: #1717 out of 2984.
