Tbh the issue a lot of ppl are having with Emily Wilson’s critiques of the Odyssey is that films aren’t often seen as literature and ppl are disjointed by her performing a literary analysis that is absent from most film criticism Imo it’s welcome bc I never understood why film isn’t seen as lit
BeijingPalmerthe thing is that Wilson seems to not be particularly well-versed in film criticism, which when criticizing a film of the Odyssey is more important than knowledge of the Odyssey.
