Anecdotes
Several critics pointed out that the opening scene (a highly uncomfortable Samuel Beckett receiving the Nobel Prize, then rapidly leaving the stage without speaking) is poetic license. In reality, Beckett did not attend the ceremony but asked his friend and publisher Jérôme Lindon to accept the award on his behalf. In the movie, Beckett mutters that the awarding of the prize is a "catastrophe" to his wife Suzanne, who reacts: in fact, it was Suzanne herself who made the comment.

Citations
Samuel Beckett (old): Do you remember, years ago, a student asked you about life? And you said "Dance first. Think later".

Samuel Beckett biopic

This is a biopic of Irish writer Samuel Beckett (Gabriel Byrne, Fionn O'Shea). This starts with his domineering volatile mother. He has a complicated relationship with his mentor James Joyce (Aidan Gillen) especially with James' daughter Lucia Joyce. He meets Suzanne and participates in the French resistance against the Nazis.

I don't know that much about Samuel Beckett other than Waiting for Godot. Even there, I don't know that much about that. Essentially, I'm coming into this blind. There are stuff here, but maybe it should distill his life into one thing. In that sense, Lucia could be more than his Rosebud. That part could be the whole movie. This is more for Beckett fans who want his work being transformed onto the screen.
