Mary Ellen Bute's final film and one of the only cinematic adaptations of James Joyce's masterfully complex work of fiction "Finnegans Wake."

In 1965 it was honored at the Cannes Film Festival as Best Debut and remains Bute's sole feature length film. Shot on location in New York City and Dublin. Brown untitled wrappers.
