  Thank you. The choreography compares very favorably to the Dance of Salome scene in "Metropolis"-- in fact, I would have to say, Nazimova is a better dancer. I'm not a dance historian, but from what little I know, her performance seems very much in line with what was considered modernism in the 1920s.
