  • The Odyssey highlight: Dialogue serves the narrative rather than pushing a modern agenda.
  • True Lies highlight: Dialogue serves the action and humor rather than delivering a moral lecture.
  • The Odyssey: Characters are rooted in the original myth, maintaining depth and complexity.
  • True Lies: Characters are well-defined and fit organically into the narrative without feeling like symbols.
