"i think that the actor playing Odysseus deserves an award or two for his role - he delivers his lines with verisimilitude."

That's Sean Bean. He was Boromir in LoTR.

i think that the actor playing Odysseus deserves an award or two for his role - he delivers his lines with verisimilitude.

That would be Sean Bean, last seen getting plugged with arrows as Boromir.

I agree, he's great. I have to admit that I wasn't thrilled with the movie, but I really liked him. I would love to see the Odyssey with him in the title role, I really would.

You've got knowledge and interests that make this a completely different film for you than it would be for me.

For some reason, I think that's kinda cool.

Yeah, the battle scenes rocked, along with Sean Bean (Odysseus), Eric Bana (Hector), and Peter O'Toole (Priam). It's too bad the writers read SparkNotes instead of the actual Iliad.

Go give cleolinda a visit; she's got a Troy In Fifteen Minutes that's to die for.
