Hollywood works itself into a tizzy over a lot of new movies. Its buzz as a rule feels more manufactured than organic — PR types often think that there is no need for steak if they can crank up the volume of the sizzle.But something’s a little different about this one. This new movie has an old name, The Odyssey, and it’s a story that has been told for about 3,000 years.
