Eisenstein
Apparently it was an unfufilled dream of Sergei Eisenstein to make a film version of Ulysses, as Joyce personally suggested he do it.
No point, just thought it was an interesting detail.
That is interesting.

It's so true! As another has pointed out on a separate thread, Joyce thought his books could be made into movies. I don't know if that is true of the medium he saw during his time. Nonetheless, his biography states that he held a mild disdain for cinema, but felt it could turn into an art form which could one day be as provocative and challenging as one of his books.
Title does not dictate behavior.
Alacrates -- You should add it to the trivia section :)
