This was the first movie my father saw when he came to the United States in 1984. He decided right then and there to name his son Ulyssys (spelled different but sounds the same). My father died almost 3 years ago and my older brother Ulyssys just passed away on September 9th. He was 32 😢
As they were speaking, a dog that had been lying asleep raised his head and pricked up his ears. This was Argos, whom Odysseus had bred before setting out for Troy, but he had never had any enjoyment from him. In the old days he used to be taken out by the young men when they went hunting wild goats, or deer, or hares, but now that his master was gone he was lying neglected on the heaps of mule and cow dung that lay in front of the stable doors till the men should come and draw it away to manure the great close; and he was full of fleas. As soon as he saw Odysseus standing there, he dropped his ears and wagged his tail, but he could not get close up to his master. When Odysseus saw the dog on the other side of the yard, dashed a tear from his eyes without Eumaios seeing it, and said: 'Eumaeus, what a noble dog that is over yonder on the manure heap: his build is splendid; is he as fine a fellow as he looks, or is he only one of those dogs that come begging about a table, and are kept merely for show?' 'This dog,' answered Eumaios, 'belonged to him who has died in a far country. If he were what he was when Odysseus left for Troy, he would soon show you what he could do. There was not a wild beast in the forest that could get away from him when he was once on its tracks. But now he has fallen on evil times, for his master is dead and gone, and the women take no care of him. Servants never do their work when their master's hand is no longer over them, for Zeus takes half the goodness out of a man when he makes a slave of him.' So saying he entered the well-built mansion and made straight for the riotous pretenders in the hall. But Argos passed into the darkness of death, now that he had fulfilled his destiny of faith and seen his master once more after twenty years.
I had to look her up. She was in some movies I look forward to watching. "The Witches", and "The Verona Trial" sound very interesting from the filmology.
The sound effects guy did a great job with the bursting hissing sound when they blinded the cyclops. Sounds just like I imagined when I read the story in school. What a bad way to wake up after going on a bender! "Ahhh, what have you done to me?!!!" And how funny when he bumps his head on the overhanging rock right in his bloody eye socket. I laugh every time I see that!
Idk. This giant in this story is always so funny. He goes from eating them alive to saying jokingly ”i’ll be back soon” like he’s saying it to his son.
The 1968 TV miniseries directed by Franco Rossi followed the story much more closely than this movie - so many vital elements are missing like the involvement of the gods especially Athena who was Ulysses' patron - also I do not like the way Telemachus is portrayed, as a babbling wimp instead of the grim determined young prince that he is supposed to be.
This is an epic and electrifying scene!!❤❤
Iam very happy to watch it again. Congratulations!!!

Bad mistake kicking the bowl out of his hands
Kirk Douglas ...Immenso. Unico: solo lui poteva Iinterpretare ...Ulisse
Ulysses committed an aggravated home invasion he can hardly be considered a hero
Stringy meat
Thanks
You're NOT worth ten dollars Kamala!
Looks like she's wearing a 1950's party dress with a wedding cake on her head!
It seems they had squatters even then, and just as hard to evict!

JBEST ANCIENT GREEK ITALIAN MOVIE EVER MADE !!!!!!!
This scene scared the shit out of me as a kid Maybe because of how unsettling they made the cyclops eye look
"These Greeks are tough. What stringy meat!" Polyphemus I sense some Italian/Greek rivalry here.
