Reproduction of two classic literatures

The story appears to be a metamorphosis of two classic literature: The Odyssey and Hamlet.

(1) The clues of the homecoming journey are quite easy to see. Garnier Otis is Nobody, that is, Odysseus who blinded the Cyclops, Poseidon ("God" exists in the "Void" void, But how to explain "21", the weight of the soul? So the soul exists in the void?) is the father of the Cyclops, Pheax is a sweet stop on Odysseus' voyage, and Penelope's reunion.

(2) The overall clue is the journey home, but the struggle is the succession of the throne, the succession of the intellectual throne, an attempt to write the history of "Hamlet", no longer "Prince's Revenge", but a man fighting for it. The throne of "intelligence" and "killing the father and marrying the mother", the deformed Oedipus complex, the love of Oedipus, the love of father and brother, Claudius failed to usurp the throne.

There are certainly other literary or non-literary elements, and there are certainly themes and patterns created by Prison Break itself.

In any case, after a long wait, it is still difficult for people to give a low rating. There are only nine episodes, which will be regarded as a test of the water (I don’t know if there will be a follow-up), the framework is too large, the ambition is too high, the puzzles There are too many, too many brain holes, and too fast turning points. Almost all problems can be blamed on the fact that the room for display is too small, and there are too many things for people to add. I believe that someone can make the story of these nine episodes rounder than drawn by a compass. The circle should be round (Mr. Han Han's quip), but being lazy, I have to say that you are a bad drama. However, I still give it five stars.

The only thing I can't get used to is that there are too many narration and explanatory words, which are not the style of the previous films at all. Even for a medium such as TV series that uses pictures and editing, language may represent a kind of incompetence and retrogression. Secrets are always revealed, and even little Mike knows that, for modern people, drawing is the best form of puzzle.

Ogygia quotes

  • Mike Scofield: What was my father like? My real father.

    Dr. Sara Tancredi: Michael Scofield... was like a storm.

    Lincoln Burrows: [at Ogygia with C-Note] Grab the camera. I want proof he's alive.

    Dr. Sara Tancredi: He was beautiful and frightening and mysterious. And he would show up in your life out of the clear blue sky and then he would disappear just as quickly.

    Mike Scofield: But storms, they can come back. Can't they?

    Dr. Sara Tancredi: Mm-hmm. Question is if they come back, is it the same storm, or has something changed?

  • Lincoln Burrows: Michael. New tats.

    Michael Scofield: What do you mean "new"?
