There are multiple depictions of nostos in modern time, an example would be the movie, Hercules Unchained, which was released in 1959. [1] This movie was similar to the Odyssey, Hercules' journey was very similar to Odysseus'. [1] One specific instance was when Hercules returned home with Iole who he won in an archery contest, which is similar to Odysseus' contest to save his marriage. [1] He was accidentally poisoned by his wife and asked to have his body set on fire, and having his body set on fire is what led to his many heroic achievements. [1]
During that time period there were no other films like this one that depicted this type of ancient material. [1]Hercules' nostos had him die and then be reborn, this is to rediscover his identity within himself and the community. [1]This is similar to Odysseus because he transforms personally from a war machine to a family man. [1]
