I’m not sure if you’re stalking me on Letterboxd or just on my wavelength and stumbled on this review, because I just recently rewatched Hercules (AND watched the Heston-starring Ten Commandments for the first time all the way through). (Regardless your inspiration for commenting, I appreciate it!) I like your idea on the missed possibility of a call to the opening of The Odyssey being a missed opportunity.

My only regret is that nobody thought to throw in a little ‘Careful what you wish for’ “SING, Muse” into the said Stentorian Narration, as a nod to Blind Homer (Who knew from narration).
