The Odyssey

In a time of apparent movie magic, Christopher Nolan has released his latest critical and box office sensation, The Odyssey. Nick and Sophia do a deep dive into Nolan's new adaptation of Homer's epic poem, detailing their favorite moments from the film, like Odysseus' journey to Hades, battle against the Cyclops, and run-in with Circe. They rave about Matt Damon and Anne Hathaway's performances as Odysseus and Penelope, discuss their own familiarity with the story, and share what makes Nolan's adaptation unique. It's safe to say they'll be talking about the film for the entirety of awards season. Finally, as is tradition with big summer blockbusters, Nick and Sophia play a round of Smash or Pass with characters from the film.Follow Nick @sauerkraut27Follow Sophia @sophia_cimFollow the pod @OscarWildPodMusic: "The Greatest Adventure" by Jonathan Adamich
