The Return's excellent cast selection enables the audience to witness the rollercoaster that the two main protagonists ride to great heights, the latter due to Odysseus's and Penelope's exceptional endurance during this trying time in their lives and without each other's support. Throughout the majority of the build-up, both are kept fairly apart, which only strengthens the catharsis in the film's most dramatic, thriller-like later scenes.
