ResumoFionnula Flanagan wrote, produced, and played all the leading roles in the 1985 Universal Pictures release James Joyce's Women. During the California Joyce 1993 conference (27 June-2 July) sponsored by the University of California, Irvine, the University of California, Riverside, and the University of Southern California, con ferees and an equally enthusiastic public were treated to a reading by Flanagan of the entire Penelope episode of Ulysses at the Irvine Barclay Theatre. Additionally, as part of the academic portion of the conference, Flanagan took part in a session titled Joycean Film Making: A Panel Discussion. The moderator was Vincent Cheng, and the other members of the panel were Joseph Strick, director of the 1967 film version of Ulysses; Judith Roscoe, author of the screen play of A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man; and Fred Haines, author of the screenplay of Ulysses. This interview was conducted subse quent to that session, and it gave Flanagan a chance to enlarge upon some of the issues raised by it. I have written about James Joyce's Women elsewhere,1 and to some extent the questions and answers below represent a complement to and a balance with that essay.
