Focusing more upon the characters' thoughts and fantasies than upon their actions, it features some of Joyce's previously banned prose. This drama was filmed in Ireland with a largely Irish cast and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Screenplay. ~ Kristie Hassen, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Wally Hammond, Time Out
There's much to appeal in this miniature odyssey, notably the superb black-and-white location work.
-
Kevin Maher, Times [UK]
An utterly definitive work.
-
Peter Bradshaw, Guardian [UK]
It's a disappointment, though watched again now for this rerelease, it doesn't seem as much of a disappointment as all that.

, Sky Movies
There is a lot to admire in this curio of a film.
-
Thom Hutchinson, Radio Times
A flawed enterprise, partly salvaged by the use of genuine Dublin locations and the marvellous performances of the mainly Irish cast.
