According to Boing Boing, a Swedish shipowner claims Universal hasn't paid six thousand dollars for damage to a Viking ship replica borrowed for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. The Glad av Gillberga—a reconstruction of a Nordic warship from around 1040—was loaned for six months and appeared as one of Odysseus's escort vessels in the film.
