Episode description as stored

The Odyssey is director Christopher Nolan’s spectacular take on Homer’s epic work – full of gods, monsters, love and very bloody revenge. Matt Damon plays Odysseus, who is trying to get home to his wife and son, played by Anne Hathaway and Tom Holland. But the journey home is not easy, as Odyssey and his crew are confronted with sea monsters, nymphs, whirlpools and cannibals. If you’re looking for more great epic blockbusters, check out these recommendations: 'Oppenheimer' looks at the building of the bomb, and its lingering fallout Ryan Gosling gets serious (and very funny) about saving the planet in ‘Project Hail Mary’ Connect with Pop Culture Happy Hour: Letterboxd / Facebook Our weekly newsletter Support Pop Culture Happy Hour+ See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.
