Linda Hamilton plays the town's mayor, Rachel Wando, and also, of course, becomes the romantic interest of Harry. Great special effects!

| | John JayR Robinson 09/19/2012 | | I've watched it about 7 times and can watch again today and still enjoy it... It's not a movie you fall asleep it will keep you attentive |
| | it's a riot | DonSanAnto 02/27/2011 | if homer had written 'odyssey' as a comedy it'd be 'o brother, where art thou?'
to see clooney sing along with turturro and tim blake is worth the time spent watching the adventure unfold.
the movie is 11 years old but worth watching at least every 4 years. |
