In a film based on James Joyce's "Ulysses," a man named Leopold Bloom leaves his home and goes to the pub. There, he meets a young poet named Stephen Dedalus. The two men share a drink, bond as if they were father and son, and -- later that day -- visit a brothel. In the meantime, Leopold's lusty wife, Molly, recalls the couple's courtship. At the end of the day, Leopold and Molly get back into bed and never discover each other's affairs.

3/5
