OK I saw the Odyssey, and yeah, it's that good.
Christopher Nolan's brain works differently. No spoilers, but it was phenomenal the restraint he showed in creating a terrifying world-ending villain. He captured the myth and sense of unstoppable destruction that was Agamemnon.
I wouldn't have thought to cast Benny Safdie. But all the casting worked.
Fails the Bechdel test, but then you already knew that.🤷🏿♂️

And I said what I said about all the racist dudes mad that their Greek gods were actually North African gods. https://hachyderm.io/@mekkaokereke/116585164144484607 The more ancient your Greek DNA, the more likely you are to have North African DNA. They're mad that a Black rapper was a bard? That's probably how the mythology got to Greece from Africa🤷🏿♂️
