...when TV is steeped in realism, Halmi's intent is to create lavish spectacles. Like his endlessly hyped 1994 mini-series Scarlett, the non-Margaret Mitchell-written sequel to Gone With the Wind, for which he conducted a $1 million worldwide search to find a star (ultimately actress Joanne Whalley-Kilmer), The Odyssey has been promoted with endless TV ads, a tie-in book and a Website game.
