‍ ﻿The Odyssey ‍



We recently found a Fossil of a YouTube video produced back in the time of the gods. To help give you an insight into the Odyssey we've been given permission by the gods to show it to you here.

﻿O Brother, Where Art Thou In //O Brother, Where Art Thou, the gang has many encounters with allusions from the original Odyssey.// //Many characters in this movie ressemble major creatures that Odysseus encoutered, such as the women from the river allude to the sirens. Both women are seductive and have nothing but bad intentions for their victims. This movie also alludes to The Odyssey in another way, the gang meets a man with an eye patch who alludes to Polyphemus in The Odyssey. The man has one eye just like Polyphemus the cyclops, and tries to kill the gang just as the cyclops tries to kill Odysseus.//
