Brother Where Art
Posted on Wednesday, August 25th, 2004 at 10:14 pm
O brother where art thou and the odysseus. greek heroes?
I’m writing a paper on these two stories O Brother Where Art Thou, and the Odysseus.
My main idea for my paper is “Heroes are the ones who express their beliefs by acting upon them” and i want to connect to the two stories.
Anyone have any ideas? I’m kind of stuck…
I loved the O Brother Where Art Thou movie but remember very little about Greek heroes. After reading the stuff I looked up I’d say OBWAT and the Odyssey had basically the same plot. Now get busy and finish your homework! LOL
Had to look up Odysseus on Wikipedia – -
(Odysseus is renowned for his guile and resourcefulness (known by the epithet Odysseus the Cunning, and said to be third to only Zeus and Athena in wisdom[citation needed] (see mētis, or “cunning intelligence”), and is most famous for the ten eventful years it took him to return home after the Trojan War.)
Here’s a plot summary of O Brother Where Art Thou —
Loosely based on Homer’s ‘Odyssey’ the movie deals with the grotesque adventures of Everett Ulysses McGill and his companions Delmar and Pete in 1930s Mississipi. Sprung from a chain gang and trying to reach Everetts home to recover the buried loot of a bank heist they are confronted by a series of strange characters. Among them sirens, a cyclops, bankrobber George ‘Babyface’ Nelson (very annoyed by that nickname), a campaigning Governor, his opponent, a KKK lynch mob, and a blind prophet, who warns the trio that “the treasure you seek shall not be the treasure you find.” Written by Armin Ortmann {armin@sfb288.math.tu-berlin.de}
