‘O Brother, Where Art Thou?’ at 20: It sold more than eight million copies and won the Grammy for Album of the Year, but the collection of old-timey music mistakenly equated primitive sounds with authenticity https://t.co/uHnehpK0gH via @RollingStone

@GregoryStringer Great insight! Wouldn't have spotted that, thanks! #classicstwittermovie

Incidentally, also found lots of Wizard of Oz parallels. Specifically a later scene where they steal uniforms to infiltrate an off-limits area. Now the question: how inspired was L. Frank Baum by the Odyssey! #classicstwittermovie

[Matt @Matt68024260]

I'd read that the Coens read the Classic Comics version of the Odyssey rather than the Odyssey itself. #ClassicsTwitterMovie

Homer doesn't describe either Sirens/Nausicaa and maidens as a group of 3 or as located specifically in a shallow pond surrounded by woods though the comic does (laundry was as prevalent in Homer's time as the 30s as now, however) #classicstwittermovie

@brookecbell The references to Homer's Odyssey are quite integrated into the story: Man trying to journey home to wife and child being the main structure of both, if you're unfamiliar #classicstwittermovie
