00:09 - You've choreographed operas at almost every major theater
00:12 in the world.
00:13 - This is true.
00:14 - Now you're teaching at America's most prestigious
00:16 dance school.
00:17 - Also true.
00:17 - So I guess the first thing I'd like to know
00:19 is why, how, and where you started teaching.
00:22 - How long is the tape?
00:24 - Could you talk about what it was like in the '60s?
00:27 - He asked questions, too.
00:28 - We exhausted ourselves with sex.
00:30 That woman had more basic positions than Baryshnikov.
00:36 - Were you gay in 1967?
00:37 - Were you?
00:38 - I'm probably not into whatever you are into.
00:42 - You have no idea what I'm into.
00:43 - What is it you do?
00:44 - I'm a cop.
00:46 - Just tell us whether or not those are
00:47 the dates that you remember.
00:50 - I'm afraid I'm becoming uncomfortable
00:51 with this interview.
00:55 - Your name isn't Mike Davis, is it?
00:57 - Mike, you got to--
00:59 - He wasn't supposed to be like this.
01:02 - What could you possibly want from me?
01:05 - You need to take responsibility.
01:06 - I was on the verge of a career.
01:08 - You can't expect me to watch him do that kind of thing.
01:11 - Come on, Lisa.
01:13 Chin up.
01:15 - So you haven't had sex for seven months.
01:18 - Was that too much information?
01:19 - No.
01:20 I love sex information.
01:22 I find it so sexy.
01:25 I try and come up here at least once a week,
01:27 kind of spiritual tic-tac.
01:31 All I am saying is don't stay stuck, Lisa.
01:33 Will you try?
01:40 - I don't think I can.
01:41 - Why not?
01:42 - If I let go, everything will break.
01:44 - What do you want?
01:53 - I want my wife.
01:55 - You are very different from anyone I have ever met.
01:58 - I love my life.
01:59 I regret my life.
02:01 The lines eventually blur.
02:03 It's just my life.
