The 20-year journey behind a single shot in Nolan’s The Odyssey
Director Christopher Nolan discusses the 20-year journey behind a single shot in his film The Odyssey, inspired by the Trojan Horse. The image, first conceived for a planned 2004 adaptation of Troy, draws parallels to the iconic Statue of Liberty reveal in Planet of the Apes. Nolan explores how the symbol of the horse transforms from a sign of triumph to one of civilization's unraveling, reflecting themes of broken laws and flawed humanity.
