NEW YORK (AP) — For Greek translator Emily Wilson, the release of director Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey” has been gratifying in various ways. Her acclaimed 2017 edition of Homer’s epic has reached the top 5 on Amazon.com, leading a wave of similar books boosted by the movie. Nolan has even cited her translation, notably the opening line “Tell me about a complicated man,” as inspiration.
But the film itself, which brought in more than $260 million worldwide during its opening weekend and has received raves from many critics, left her unsatisfied.

The big-screen prestige spectacle is in danger. Now that the smartest, most interesting pictures tend to be smaller, independent projects—and the studios, to the extent they exist anymore, have begun pouring their resources into fodder for their streaming platforms—fewer people over 40 or 50 care to go out to the movies anymore, and you can’t blame them. What’s out there for them? A big-screen extravaganza like The Odyssey, made by a filmmaker, Christopher Nolan, who’s adamant about preserving the communal watching experience—and one who’s committed to shooting the old-fashioned way, on film—seems to be our only hope.
