Having enjoyed Joyce's complex
Having enjoyed Joyce's complex novels, I enjoyed watching Allen's work, and her beautiful performances, as well as her trademark turgid, crude, and utterly hilarious (and brief) style of acting. Though I read the book in the summer, I found it very enjoyable, and even more so for Allen's finest performances of this period.
Having enjoyed Joyce's complex and often tedious work, I had a hard time following the film. With no real insight into the character of the film, it seems that the filmmakers were aiming for a very different type of film, and this is where the story really got to me. Everything the director has shown is quite convincing, and it's intriguing that a film like this could have been made. I am not terribly familiar with Joyce's role, though,
