Im Greek and everyone is wrong about Nolans The Odyssey [rGf8R7nKOLD]
As a Greek (and representative of all Greeks) I felt compelled to chime in on people's reactions to Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. In this video I'm going through the casting controversies, Elliot Page, the Brad Pitt comparison, Lupita as Helen and why none of this outrage is actually about historical accuracy. I share some research about queerness in ancient Greece, what Homer himself wrote about Black Africans, the Emily Wilson translation Nolan's version of the epic is based this on, and Anne Hathaway's Botox in a period piece. Also aging. A potpourri of topics. support this channel on Substack: ☞ other places you can find me: ☞ INSTAGRAM - @kristenleo
