Othello/O Similarities
The movie “O” starts off showing Odin receiving an award in front of the rest of the school for the most valuable basketball player. Odin then says that this would not be possible without his “go to guy” who Hugo believes will be him, due to the fact he has been in the basketball team for some time and has also known Odin for some time. Odin says his “go to guy” is another member of the basketball team which causes Hugo to feel very annoyed at this decision. This is a parallel between the book and the film, where the army is replaced with a basketball team.
