Georgiadis on Odyssey: "Nolan has gone too far - The only word t..."

Adonis Georgiadis spoke to the Friends Weekend about Nolan's new film, Odyssey, and the choice of the protagonist. Lupita Nyongko is expected to have a double role, that of both Helen and Clytemnestra.

 

However, there were mixed reactions regarding the director's choice to choose a black woman for the role of Helen of Troy, with Elon Musk equally lashing out at social media. The Minister of Health took a position and stressed that the only word of Homer that describes Helen of Troy has been violated and this is none other than the color of the woman in question.

The position of Adonis Georgiadis

"Nolan is a great director and he has made successes. Greece plays through the films either positively or negatively. It was well funded by EKKOMED. I don't understand the choices he has made. I understand that there is a trend in Hollywood for the woke agenda and the politically correct but I want to say a few things. Helen of Troy in Homer is not described at all, he has left her to be imagined by everyone as he wants.

 

The only description she has given is that she is white, no other. This one and only word of Homer is violated. As far as Achilleas is concerned, I can't comment on many things here. Many do not understand history and mythology. The day before yesterday I saw Monomachos and he had historical inaccuracies. Nolan has gone too far, I don't know if he's doing it to win the Oscar.
