[under modern times section]

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]
