Keeps playing with the screen off. The episode is played from Fresh Airβs own podcast host.
Christopher Nolanβs new film βThe Odysseyβ is a box-office hit, but classics scholar Emily Wilson, who translated Homerβs poem from the original text, says the filmβs script is abysmally written, lacking in emotional depth and character development. She talks about her translation and divisive criticism of the film.Β
Also, we hear from actor Jon Bernthal who plays Menelaus, King of Sparta in βThe Odysseyβ and the Punisher in the new Spider-Man movie.Β Β
