“ “Christopher Nolan’s Odyssey is a colossal origin-myth story of postwar disillusion and a loss of innocence witnessed by the dead.”. What the hell does that even mean? Why can’t critics just speak plain English?!”
Read the odyssey. You’ll be among the very few here who have.
Read it over 50 years ago, but don’t remember all of it.
I have, and that doesn’t describe it. Not in any way.
The Odyssey is the simple story of a husband trying to return to his wife, and of her chastity and patience. And a rip-snorting tale it is.
