Why the scores diverge

Donkey Skin highlight: The dialogue occasionally leans into moral or thematic statements but remains mostly in service of the fairy tale narrative rather than overt messaging.
The Odyssey: Significant rearrangement and re-centering of the Trojan Horse and the destruction of Troy sequence shifts the narrative focus toward Odysseus's guilt, marking a clear legacy rewriting from Homer’s original epic.
Donkey Skin: Characters are primarily shaped by their roles in the fairy tale, with little evidence of tokenism or symbolic representation beyond genre conventions.
