Thank you for this!!! Your point on the return to the father is exactly right. Nolan's melancholy for a lost past has been increasing of the last couple of years. Never mind if in the lost, so called perfect past, daughters were sacrificed for good winds or if entire countries were massacred by the "good guys". In the attempt to make a movie against the current state of things, Nolan ended up making a version of make Ancient Greece Great Again. Nothing new, then.
Gracias por el análisis y la crítica general despiadada a las películas machirulas de Nolan. ¿Ha visto usted "The Return", en la que Ulises es, con la complicidad de Fiennes, un problema para la vida de cualquiera, incluida la suya propia?
Y ahora, la cutre traducción de Google. La próxima vez, lo intentaré con mi pobre inglés, incompatible también con la vida.
And now, the lousy Google translation. Next time, I’ll give it a go with my poor English—which is also incompatible with life.
Thanks for the analysis and the generally ruthless critique of Nolan’s macho-centric films. Have you seen "The Return" , in which Ulysses—with Fiennes’s complicity—becomes a problem for everyone’s life, including his own?
Good to have a different perspective on this film. I haven't watched it yet, but, from judging from other reviews, and my own reading of the poem (I'm rereading the translation by Emily Wilson to get a better sense of what Nolan is doing), I think I'm going to have the same issues I've had with Nolan's other work in the past (I do like Inception, though). Thank you for your sharp critical eye, here and in all your other posts!

Thnks a lot.
