Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey has finally arrived, and after seeing it, I sat down for an hour to gather my thoughts while everything was still fresh.
In this preview of the Patreon-exclusive bonus episode, I discuss my initial impressions of the film, covering the performances, casting, writing, themes, spectacle, adaptation choices, and how it compares to Homer's epic. It's not a formal review so much as an extended conversation about what worked, what surprised me, what I found myself wrestling with, and where I think the film succeeds—or falls short.
If you've seen The Odyssey and want to spend another hour thinking through it with someone who has lived with the poem for years, I hope you'll enjoy the discussion.
