loved the odyssey. loved it! but there was a cold rush of horror that came over me when the expository style of dialogue kept going after the first ten minutes and in fact didn’t stop until the very second the credits rolled
The magic of this performance for me is that there is not one thing said that's like "wow! here's the insight into who this guy is" ( and again he's not particularly well defined in script unless you know the source) but Patel creates a barrage of looks so informative, so telling, I felt like I damn near totally got him. Mans would be right at home in the Silent Era which means he's at home in any.
