Episode Details

Christopher Nolan’s epic new film “The Odyssey” is blowing audiences away — not just with its mythic tale of Odysseus’ homecoming, but with its jaw-dropping 70mm IMAX presentation. Only Indianapolis can host it this way, drawing fans from across North America. With Matt Damon as the heroic Odysseus and Anne Hathaway as Penelope, the film — adapted from Emily Wilson’s translation — premiered July 17th and is sparking both buzz and debate. Scholars praise its cultural revival of Greek mythology while noting Nolan simplifies Homer’s morally tangled trickster into a more traditional hero. Still, crowds are flocking in — so much so that Indianapolis has extended screenings through September 13th, complete with themed drinks and special posters. It’s not just a movie — it’s a phenomenon.
