In the late 1990's, a number of mythical figures and stories were recreated. Many had been recreated in the 1980's, but frankly, almost all of them sucked. It is wonderful to see these high quality recreations and The Odyssey from 1997 is one of the best!
This epic poem by Homer is almost 3 hours in length in 2 parts and features the direction of Andrei Konchalovsky. Armand Assante is Odysseus. He is one of the busiest actors around as of this writing and won the Golden Globe award for this performance in the category "Best Performance by an Actor in a Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for TV".
This is one of my favorite movies!
