An Analysis of the Movie: "O Brother, Where Art Thou"
This paper is an analysis of Joel Coen directed, "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" loosely based on Homer's epic adventure, "The Odyssey", is a film whose mise-en-scene is packed full of symbolism that reflects the themes of Homer's epic while maintaining an originality and surreal style that the Coen brother's have become renowned for. Much of the symbolism is accomplished through setting and color, which add a great deal to the overall tone and feeling of the film. Other symbolism is present in the large and varied cast of characters that populate the film, as well as the music for which the film has been widely praised. In the end, all of these elements combine to make for a deep and heady adventure pitting good against evil, that is relevant in any period, be it Ancient Greece, the depression-era South, or the world as we know it today.
