It's difficult to discern the references to The Odyssey, but the sequential challenges the three leads endure were fascinating & ingenious.

Bluegrassy take on The Odyssey. Fizzled out a little in the 3rd act for me, but overall fantastic with great music.

A very worthy entry among the pantheon of odyssey adaptations. The 1930s time period makes an extra fresh take on the story
