Is There one Who Understands me? The World of James Joyce (Ireland)
(90 min; 1983; English)
Directors: Shep Morgan, Seán O’Mórdha
Feature length documentary on one of the most influential and innovative writers of the 20th century, James Joyce. Mixing beautifully filmed shots of present day Dublin and Paris with the turn of the century, the film is interspersed with period music and is an artistic work in its own right. More importantly, it includes interviews with Joyce's relatives and Richard Ellman, the world's greatest Joycean scholar who have all since passed away. For this reason alone, it is unlikely to be surpassed.
