...Joseph Strick's film of Ulysses is wonderful. For those who know, and presumably love, Joyce's novel (our century's greatest long poem to date), it will be enough to say that the film is worthy of its source.

...trifle close, her figure was a trifle stout, and her face was round and beaming but she nonetheless had a special kind of glamour. As more than 100 news men and airport police surrounded her, a forest of microphones poking from their midst, Svetlana Stalina, 42, daughter of Joseph Stalin and by far the most prominent defector ever to pass through the Iron Curtain, gave her first greeting to the U.S. "Hello there, everybody," she said. "I am very happy to be here...
