In case you haven't heard, The Odyssey is getting the Christopher Nolan treatment. With a cast including Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, Zendaya and more, the film certainly promises greatness. Set to release on July 17, The Odyssey will follow Odysseus as he journeys back to Ithaca after the Trojan War. Anachronistic costuming aside, this article will focus on the story of The Odyssey itself.

There is nothing like brunch — the opportunity to sleep in paired with a savory breakfast is the perfect (late) start to your day. While the brunch options on campus are nice, especially Morrison Dining’s mango sticky rice or North Star Dining Room’s pancakes with cherry sauce, the weekly rotations sometimes get boring for those with a more expansive taste palette.

When I read Netflix’s one-sentence synopsis of Apex for the first time, I laughed: “Oscar winner Charlize Theron stars in this hunt-or-be-hunted thriller about a grieving adventurer targeted as prey while kayaking in the Australian wild.” As it turns out, that absurdly specific sentence ended up being the most coherent thing about this entire film.

The Pro-Yos, Cornell’s only Chinese yo-yo performance group, held their seventh annual showcase this past Sunday. For two and a half hours, a record number of Pro-Yo performers danced nearly nonstop across the stage with physics-defying tricks, upbeat music and constant outfit changes. The warmth of the group’s community shone through with every act, and with their highly engaged audience, they created an electric atmosphere that was a delight to experience.

Collegetown Bagel’s spring drink menu dropped, and my friends and I treated it like a group project. Everyone claimed a drink, took a sip of their order and walked us through the flavor of the beverage before assigning it a rating. Drinks got passed around for second opinions before we were comfortable with locking in our scores. Hopefully, our collaborative review session of caffeine and sugar informs your next CTB run.

A new menace is looming over Gotham City in James Gunn’s blossoming DC Universe. Following the sequence of 15 forgettable films that constituted the less-than-spectacular DC Extended Universe, beginning with Man of Steel (2013) and ending with Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom (2023), James Gunn has begun planting the seeds for a much needed DC film universe rebirth. Currently consisting of recent projects such as the Peacemaker TV-series, the Creature Commandos TV-series, the well-received Superman (2025) and the upcoming Supergirl (2026), it looks as if this universe is finally about to receive its first installment with a villain protagonist — none other than Matt Hagen, known to the residents of Gotham City as Clayface.

If we all close our eyes and think of the word ‘war’ I can bet that most of us wouldn’t associate it with ‘success,’ ‘winning’ or even ‘essential.’ We would describe it in more vile terms, or, by its textbook definition: “a state of usually open and declared armed hostile conflict between states or nations.”

David Lowery’s Mother Mary takes place over the course of one night, when pop star Mother Mary (Anne Hathaway) comes to her former costume designer and friend, Sam Anselm (Michaela Coel), for a dress, days before a huge comeback performance. Inspired by iconic designer-performer pairings like Lady Gaga and Alexander McQueen and Madonna and Jean Paul Gaultier, the pair were once close collaborators, but fell out when Mary rose to fame and began pushing Sam away. While Sam played a major role in shaping the look and persona of Mother Mary, her contributions were often swept under the rug. Years later, Mary realizes that the only person who truly knows her and can create an outfit for her that feels authentic is Sam. Over the course of the night, the two, locked together in Sam’s workshop, unravel the complicated thread of their relationship, both personal and professional, and begin to understand the extent of their connection.

At the front of the room stood a podium, a piano and a harpsichord. Displayed beside the musical instruments was a 1795 pastel illustration by Italian artist Anna Tonelli, depicting two young women and a piano. This was the setup for “Piano Portraits: Art and Music-Making in London, ca. 1800,” the last in a series of three piano-focused events this semester at Cornell’s Johnson Museum of Art. The combined lecture and concert, organized around the Johnson Museum’s recent acquisition of Tonelli’s piece, beautifully intertwined British art and music of the time period by alternating between presentations on various female artists and composers and live performances of the music they composed.
