O Spring Break, Where art tho?

We recently finished watching the movie, O Brother, Where Art Tho? in L.A. class. Like many heroic stories, it was based of The Odyssey, yet it followed Odysseus's journey more closely than other novels-- replacing the sirens with seductive women, the lotus eaters with faithful religious folk, the cyclops with a one eyed con man, and more. I enjoyed George Clooney's preformance, as well as the other supporting actors. So, overall I felt it was a good film, except some parts I disagreed with. For example, Penny (acting like Odysseus' wife Penelope) did not wait and weep for her husband. Instead, she looked for another man to marry. However, the great and catchy music made up for some of these cinematic defects.
