Morning all, there’s going to be a showing of M&C at my local sailing club which will include a little pre-viewing discussion. For the life of me, I can’t remember any interesting facts about the production, filming etc, and can barely recall the book related hints dotted throughout the movie apart from the three famous ones,
Stephen missing out bits of the Lord’s Prayer in the funeral scene because of his allegiance with the United Irishmen (can anyone clarify this further, as well?).
Jack alluding to Stephen’s intelligence work.

If anyone has any bits of information or favourite moments they don’t mind sharing that would be greatly appreciated!
