Christopher Nolan says Travis Scott’s ‘rap background’ led to his controversial casting in period drama The Odyssey

Filmmaker Christopher Nolan has revealed why he cast rapper Travis Scott in his upcoming film The Odyssey, saying the musician’s background in rap aligned with the oral storytelling tradition of the ancient epic, according to E! News. Travis Scott is making an appearance in Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey. Christopher Nolan on casting Travis Scott in The Odyssey Speaking in an interview, Nolan said Scott was chosen to portray a bard in the film because of the connection between oral poetry and rap music. “I cast him because I wanted to nod towards the idea that this story has been handed down as oral poetry, which is analogous to rap,” Nolan said, according to E! News. The upcoming film, slated to premiere on July 17, features Scott in a brief but notable appearance in a trailer released in January.

Toxic: Yash’s period gangster actioner set in 60s Goa touted to be ‘father-and-son revenge saga’ about power

Pallichattambi movie review: Tovino Thomas, Kayadu Lohar’s period action drama is a major letdown | Movie-review News

Pallichattambi movie review: Tovino Thomas, Kayadu Lohar’s period action drama is a major letdown | Movie-review News

Pallichattambi Movie Review & Rating: One of the main issues with director Dijo Jose Antony’s movies is that they are almost always dead set on the point they want to make. He has thus far made three films — Queen, Jana Gana Mana, and Malayalee From India — and even if each one’s tone and genre differ from the others, they can all be broadly described as social dramas that carry several messages. The major shortcoming of these films is that they primarily focus on the messages rather than on how they are presented. Unfortunately, his latest film, Pallichattambi, is no different, as almost everything is spelt out for us, leaving no room for reflection (or subtlety). Set mostly in the late 1950s, when Kerala was being ruled by one of the first democratically elected Communist governments in the world, Pallichattambi unfolds against the picturesque backdrop of the hilly village of Kaniyaar. This was also the time when religious institutions and certain political outfits began pushing back against the government’s pro-tenant, anti-feudal bills and ordinances, paving …
