Screenwriters get little respect. People don’t even understand what screenwriters do. (They actually write the film, the characters, the action, the theme, the story, etc.)
Most react to Nolan as a director.
Nolan is the sole screenwriter on the movie The Odyssey.
Being such a powerful filmmaker Nolan could have made almost anything. Any superhero movie. Any high concept contemporary sci-fi, horror or thriller.
Nolan the writer, the English major, decided to adapt Homer. An ancient poem. And write his own adaptation (translation) to deliver an accessible blockbuster movie that will deliver this ancient story and Western myth to a global cinematic audience. Seen in every country, in every language.
Not by academics, not a small off-off Broadway play, but a monster film of visual art.
And people are attacking him.
Interestingly, the controversy and attacks are helping the film. Like in the old days. Controversy used to be seen as free publicity. Until recently with “woke” attacks from left and right, studios shied away from anything controversial.
Nolan proves that controversy is again a huge advantage.
You stick to your guns. You produce the work - you tackle the toughest and greatest works of art through visual storytelling - and let the eruptions begin.
Then ignore it. The film will stand (or fall) in time with no one remembering the criticism - as has happened with so many films of the past.

wonderful that Nolan evidently never sees the Internet, hasn't even a phone. all English majors love it that the filmmaker of the moment was an English major as an undergraduate. it would be interesting to know how many renowned filmmakers majored in English, Comp. lit. or the humanities generally.

@busigos @Tomhennessey69 @bigbabolat I would use lethal force against intruders of sovereign nations.
Those are my politics!

@daveeliopoulos @Tomhennessey69 @bigbabolat Oh good, remind me, how great was Italy under fascism? By the evidence, fascism was more destructive of European nations than communism was. At least after their 80 year foray with communism Russia is a sovereign country with a functioning economy again.

This was America under the Biden presidency. The demographic damage already happened.
Trump got elected to remove 10-20+ million of these third-world savages.
And what has the Republican Party actually delivered?
Nothing but hesitation, endless excuses, and numbers so pathetic they’re statistically invisible. They don’t even cancel out yearly anchor-baby births.
This was the last democratic shot at fixing this. After Trump the window closes for good on the GOP, and they will have earned it.
Plan accordingly.

This is America if Republicans lose in 2028.

@daveeliopoulos @PrinceDemetrix @MrAbbeetim Actually, Blacks are Greeks. Though they’re just more of a minority in the overall Greek population. And Helen’s skin color has never been specified in the story or by Homer himself.

@KieraDiss @Saxon_fren Use your size kid and crush that NIG!

@daveeliopoulos @Tomhennessey69 @bigbabolat I understand it just fine, and I’m telling you I don’t care. If the Constitution according to leftists says that America must commit suicide, then the obvious response is to ignore the supposed rules and eliminate the leftists who want us to die.

@PrinceDemetrix @MrAbbeetim Blacks aren’t Greek!
Helen of Troy was Greek!
Stop stealing everyone else’s history and culture.
You did the same shit with cleopatra and Egypt sued Netflix over it.
