Product: The Odyssey [VHS] (1997)
Rating: 5.0
Superb Version of a Classic Story
I must admit that I don't care for most TV "Event" miniseries of the classics, since most stray from the story and pad out the running time(especially in the second half), but THE ODYSSEY happily is an exception. Beautiful location photography and a cast of exceptional actors led by the ever capable Armand Assante, tell the tale as it should be told with just the right amount of drama and spectacle.Fans of adventure and the classics will enjoy this and young children especially should watch and be encouraged to read more.
