Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey lands in theaters this weekend with all of the splashiness and fanfare that one might expect from a movie that is expected to be the blockbuster of the summer. Without a doubt one of the greatest directors of our time, Nolan’s reputation precedes him. Movies like The Dark Knight, Interstellar, Oppenheimer, and Inception stand out as some of his career highs. These generation-defining films have made an undeniable impact on the cultural zeitgeist of our modern era.
With the premiere of The Odyssey, we are excited for Nolan’s take on the classic Homeric epic, which dates back to the 8th century BC. The story follows Greek hero Odysseus, whose journey home after a ten-year war in Troy is plagued by all kinds of ills, ranging from sea monsters to sorceresses and even a few Olympian deities. Though the movie was filmed in six different countries, it is set upon the Aegean Sea and on islands therein.
