About this listen
In this episode, the Dead Language Ladies discuss the highly anticipated Christopher Nolan film, The Odyssey. Listen as we unpack the controversial choice of the director to use historically inaccurate costuming for these Bronze Age heroes, which has many Ancient Greece lovers in an uproar--while those like us are merely disappointed. Many film lovers, however, find the backlash to be irrelevant and only demand a good movie. Despite convincing points from both sides of the debate, we ultimately ask another question that addresses the glaring gap between academia & scholarship on the one hand and creative media & film on the other: when did historians cease being creative?
