In the movie, Governor Pappy O'Daniel is introduced on the steps of the radio station as Menolaeus T. (Pappy) O'Daniel, an obvious reference to the King of the same name. Circe turned half of Ulysses' men into animals, only in the movie it was supposedly the Sirens who did. (Pete into a frog) There's lots more imagery in the movie. If you haven't read the whole thing, try this: http://members.tripod.com/~Poseidon64/Odyssey.html An excellent synopsis.
