TODAY, two weeks after the 1968 Academy Awards were announced, New Yorkers can see the performance that should have won the Oscar for Vanessa Redgrave, one of the three losers among the five women nominated for Best Actress of the Year. It is Miss Redgrave's funny, complex, grandly romantic evocation of the late Isadora Duncan, the high priestess of modern dance, a lady who never wrote of her Art without capitalizing it and who may have been—even with all her lovers, vanities and her muddled philosophy—this century's most innocent, most implacable, most successful American revolutionary.
