I saw "Precious" today.
Man, that was a tough movie to watch.

I can see how it might loosely be based on The Odyssey though: The long journey home, the wife's suitor. That's really it though.

Christ 8, the connection between the two is so clearly obvious.

I realise that I have a past to break with--an accumulation of inertia, wrong, foolishness, rot, junk. A great need of clarification, of mindfulness, or rather, of no mind. A need to return to genuine practice, right effort. Need to push on the great doubt. Need for the spirit. Hang on to the clear light.

Not entirely sure. It's been awhile since I read The Odyssey. Probably 13 years or so. Those are the things I can think of off the top of my head though.
