Yeah, I had heard about that Cohen movie. I might have watched it but I can't remember. Maybe my library has it, now that I am interested again. Cohen was a Buddhist of sorts, but I much prefer his music like: Suzanne. Ken Kesey used a quote from it at the beginning of his book Sailors Tale (or something like that). That book is a modern tale of Ulysses although I couldn't find a reviewer who stated that. Oh, and then there is always Cohen's Everybody Knows. Truly a great poet.
