References to Homer's Odyssey In O Brother Where Art Thou?:\n\nThe names of George Clooney and Holly Hunter's characters (Ulysses & Penelope)\n\none-eyed Big Dan as the Cyclops (blinded with a burning pole)\n\nthe three girls by the river as the Sirens\n\nUlysses' wife marrying someone else when he comes home\n\nthe old-man disguise\n\nthe changing of one of Ulysses' companions into an animal\n\nthe Baptists as the Lotus-eaters\n\nthe Ku Klux Klan has a rank of Grand (or Exalted) Cyclops\n\nthey catch a ride on a hand-pumped railcar that is being operated by a blind prophet, who tells them that they will not find the treasure they seek. The prophet character in the Odyssey was Teiresias, whom Odysseus consulted in the underworld when he needed information on how to get home again\n\nthe movie theater scene as the trip through the Underworld.\n\nOdysseus nearly drowned, but clings to a piece of wood.\n\nOdysseus and Everett both reveal themselves by performing an act no one else could: Odysseus strings a special bow and fires it through seven rings; Everett sings "Man of Constant Sorrow" as only the leader of the Soggy Bottom Boys can.\n\n"Pappy's" given name, Menelaus, is the same as the king who declared war on Troy in the first place.\n\nthe Latin equivalent of the Greek name Odysseus is Ulysses.\n\n"Sing in me O Muse... ", the line at the beginning of the film, is the first line of the Odyssey.\n\nthe killing of the cattle of Helios by the "fools" in the Odyssey is mirrored by Baby Face Nelson shooting the cows.\n\nevery time Ulysses falls asleep something bad happens.\n\nthe song which plays throughout the movie is called "Man of Constant Sorrow", Odysseus means "man who is in constant pain and sorrow".\n\na man of constant sorrow is also a description of Odysseus.\n\nPappy's opposition for Governor's has the first name Homer.\n\nwhen Ulysses first meets Big Dan in the restaurant there is a statue of Homer in the background.\n\nThere is a "Blind Bard" who pays the boys to "sing into his can". Homer was often (and probably erroneously) thought to be a blind bard who told his stories verbally to his students.

I don't think it was Chariots of Fire, I don't think there was anything about drugs in that movie. It sounds a little bit like a made-for-TV movie named Finish Line, but that came out in the 80s.

to answer all three of your questions, i'm sure your local library has a copy of hercules you can take out for free.  watch it, and then you'll know... I usually don't leave answers like this, but in your case, i think it'd be in your best interest... it's not a book, its a movie,  and if it's the disney version you're talking about it's only an hour and a half long.

well, if this helps, he wrote two poems, the Odyssey and the Iliad.  The Iliad is about the Greeks winning the Trojan war, and the Odyssey is about a hero Odysseus.  If you need more information, try wikipedia and search for Homer, Iliad or Odyssey.

It's "The Graduate", starring Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft.\n\nPersonally, I like the Simpson's version with Grampa Simpson as the Hoffman character. \n\nGood movie... though I am a bit disturbed by the tan lines...\n\nEnjoy! ~ Andrea

Homer was a male. But he was not a god. He was a poet. Read Greek history and you'll find out all about him.

Given the length and depth of the Odyssey I would recommend going to your local library and borrowing a copy- and if its a description you are after you could look for a version aimed at students as these would most likely give extra detail, insight and analysis.

It was a movie called "Travel On" made in 1950. It was about a young man's search for his missing dog. It featured scenic tourists sites around the country like Mount Rushmore and the Grand Canyon. Filmed entirely in 3-D. My favorite part of the movie was when the bats flew out of the old barn. It seemed like they were flying straight at me! Fun movie.

Do you mean the King of Ithaca?  As in Homer's Odessey, Odysseus, and the Trojan War?  I've never seen a movie about Odysseus with a character by the name of DIMIDIOCE.  Sorry.
