Harry and Caresse Crosby lived the ultimate Bohemian lives as poets, artists, and patrons in Paris in the 1920’s. To every adventure their answer was always ‘yes’. Then in October 1929, Harry’s adventurism led to a joint suicide with his lover Josephine, and the ensuing scandal would mar his legacy and bring a shattering close to the carefree days of the 1920’s.  But was Harry’s death a tragic eclipse, or the heroic end to a private ethos that had begun for him in the dark days of WWI? The story of these three, Harry, Caresse and Josephine is a challenging look into their relentless pursuit of life and a search for a sense of meaning in the face of death.
