A double piece featuring Penelope, Clytemnestra and Helen 🥹❤️ cause I love them very much

An Odyssey family affair.

I actually do not give an actual fuck about (most of) the perceived inaccuracies and adaptive flourishes of Nolan's Odyssey and I think that some of you need to understand that stories can be good even if they are changed to fit a different thematic structure. I simply do not care about perceived mischaracterizations of one of history's oldest blorbos: Idgaf that it didn't include the Nobody detail when Odysseus' connection to the gods is tenuous and his sponsor god/the personification of his guilt wears the face of an innocent murdered as a result of his violations. His defining character traits are established much differently, and in my opinion, serve the medium far better. I think that some of you need to stop the rehash and enjoy a piece of art that claims inspiration, not accuracy.

Secret sanctuaries 💧

This. Amazing. Woman. I just saw Nolan's Odyssey, and there is no word that can describe how much I ABSOLUTELY ADORE Circe's character and the completely valid and justifiable crashout she had on all of Odysseus's men.

There really is something to be said about how she turns men into lions, tigers, and other animals that HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO HARM AND KILL HUMANS because the danger those animals pose pales in comparison to the danger that the men they once were are capable of. She feels safer living with man-eaters than with actual men, and can you blame her after everything she's been put through?!

And you gotta love the line "go back to your disguises," which she said as she was turning the pigs back into Odysseus's crew, and what that line says about all of them and how she sees the world because of all the terrible things men like them have done.
