Description
Before Christopher Nolan's latest epic retelling of Homer's Odyssey, Let's chat about one of the world's oldest work of literature and review the 2000 loosely based adaptation from the Coen Brothers, O Brother Where Art Thou. Starring George Clooney, John Turturro, and Tim Blake Nelson, with Charles Durning, Michael Badalucco, John Goodman and Holly Hunter in supporting roles.
It follows three escaped convicts searching for hidden treasure while a sheriff relentlessly pursues them. Its story is a modern satire which, while incorporating social features of the American South, is loosely based on Homer's epic Greek poem the Odyssey.
