The Odyssey

The Odyssey

Note

there were a few scenes that brought the imax to life. a spartan ship in a vast and endless ocean.

i wish there were more such scenes.

the odyssey is an old tale that survives retelling and remaking. a tale as old as the gods.

i prefer a more flawed odysseus who is tossed and supported in equal parts by the family of zeus.

but i do like the theme of zeus law and how the war of troy enabled men to defy healthy custom.

a mirror for american society and our current leaders.
