Troy (2004)

Actors

Plot
It is the year 1250 B.C. during the late Bronze age. Two emerging nations begin to clash after Paris, the Trojan prince, convinces Helen, Queen of Sparta, to leave her husband, Menelaus, and sail with him back to Troy. After Menelaus finds out that his wife was taken by the Trojans, he asks his brother Agamemnon to help him get her back. Agamemnon sees this as an opportunity for power. So they set off with 1,000 ships holding 50,000 Greeks to Troy. With the help of Achilles, the Greeks are able to fight the never before defeated Trojans. But they come to a stop by Hector, Prince of Troy. The whole movie shows their battle struggles and the foreshadowing of fate in this remake by Wolfgang Petersen of Homer's "The Iliad."

Quotes:

Agamemnon: Peace is for women and the weak.

Andromache: [to Hector] I can't imagine life without you.

Priam: I've fought many wars in my time. Some I've fought for land, some for power, some for glory. I suppose fighting for love makes more sense than all the rest.

Glaucus: [the Appolonians are making their last stand] Soldiers of Troy! You men are warriors! To lead you has been my honor! [to Paris] My prince! The boatman waits for us! I say, we make him wait a little longer!::[Trojans attack as the Greeks break down the last barricade]

Agamemnon: I see you're not hiding behind your high walls. Valiant of you. Ill-advised, but valiant.::Hector: You come here uninvited. Go back to your ships and go home.::Agamemnon: We've come too far, Prince Hector.::Menelaus: Prince? What prince? What son of a king would accept a man's hospitality, eat his food, drink his wine, embrace him in friendship, and then steal his wife in the middle of the night?::Paris: The sun was shining when your wife left you.::Menelaus: She's up there, watching, isn't she? Good. I want her to watch you die.::Agamemnon: Not yet, brother. Look around you, Hector. I brought all the warriors of Greece to your shores.::Nestor: You can still save Troy, young prince.::Agamemnon: I have two wishes. If you grant them, no more of your people need die. First, you must give Helen back to my brother. Second, Troy must submit to my command, to fight for me whenever I call.::Hector: You want me to look upon your army and tremble? Well I see them. I see 50,000 men brought here to fight for one man's greed.::Agamemnon: Careful boy, my mercy has limits.::Hector: And I've seen the limits of your mercy and I tell you now, no son of Troy will ever submit to a foreign ruler.::Agamemnon: Then every son of Troy shall die.

[Paris cowardly bows out of a duel with Menelaus, leaving everyone aghast, especially Menelaus]::Menelaus: [shouts to Helen] Is this what you left me for?

[Eyes closed, Briseis has blade against his throat]::Achilles: Do it. [Briseis doesn't do anything, but only stares at him. Achilles opens his eyes] Do it. Nothing is easier.::Briseis: Aren't you afraid?::Achilles: Everyone dies, whether today or fifty years from now.::Briseis: If I don't, you'll kill more men.::Achilles: Many.

Odysseus: [Achilles throws his spear into a nearby tree] Your reputation for hospitality is fast becoming legend.

Agamemnon: [approaches king] Good day for the crows.::Triopas: Remove your army from my land.::Agamemnon: Why, I like your land, I think we'll stay. I like your soldiers too.::Triopas: They won't fight for you.::Agamemnon: That's what the Messenians said, and the Acardians, and the Opeians, now they all fight for me.::Triopas: You can't have the whole world, Agamemnon. It's too big, even for you.::Agamemnon: I don't want to watch another massacre. Let's settle this war in the old manner. Your best fighter against my best.::Triopas: And if my man wins?::Agamemnon: We'll leave Thessaly for good.::Triopas: Boagrius!::[cheers from Thessalian army. Boagrius comes out from the centre of the army]::Agamemnon: Achilles!::[silence]::Triopas: Boagrius has this effect on many heroes.::Agamemnon: Be careful who you insult, old king.::Greek Soldier: My king, Achilles is not with the army.::Agamemnon: Where is he?::Greek Soldier: I sent a boy to look for him.

Achilles: If I hurt you, it's not what I wanted

Plot
Tantalus: Behind the Mask follows the tumultuous creation of one of the most ambitious feats in the modern theatre -- the 12-hour recreation of the Epic Cycle, the sprawling Greek creation story which spawned all of Greek mythology. The production became a struggle between writer John Barton and director Sir Peter Hall, who had been fast friends since founding the Royal Shakespeare Company in 1961, but left the battlefields of Tantalus bitter enemies.

The world I built with my hands, and my sweat...::Eurymachus: Now, anyone...::Odysseus: And my blood. The world that I shared with a woman who bore me my son, and no one will ever take that from me.

Odysseus King of Ithaca Part 1

Order: Reorder
Duration: 44:49
Updated: 13 Dec 2013

He is most famous for the ten eventful years he took to return home after the decade-long Trojan War and his famous Trojan Horse ploy to capture the city of Troy. Name, etymology and epithets The name has several variants: Olysseus (Ὀλυσσεύς), Oulixeus (Οὐλιξεύς), Oulixes (Οὐλίξης) and he was known as Ulyssēs in Latin or Ulixēs in Roman mythology. Hence, "there may originally have been two separate figures, one called something like Odysseus, the other something like Ulixes, who were combined into one complex personality." The etymology of the name is contested. Many scholars say the name Odysseus derives from the verb odussomai (Greek: ὀδύσσομαι), meaning "to be wroth against" or "hate", suggesting that the name could be rendered as "the one who is wrathful/hated". Homer in references and puns relates it to various forms of this verb. It has been also suggested that the name is of non-Greek origin, probably not even Indo-European, with an unknown etymology. In Book 19 of the Odyssey, where Odysseus's early childhood is recounted, Euryclea asks Autolycus to name him. Euryclea tries to guide him to naming the boy Polyaretos, "for he has much been prayed for" (19.403f). Autolycus "apparently in a sardonic mood ... decided to give the child a name that would commemorate his own experience in life. 'Because I got odium upon myself before coming here ... from many ... let the child's name be Odysseus to signify this.' The pun was prophetic as well as commemorative." Odysseus often receives the patronymic epithet Laertiades (Λαερτιάδης), "son of Laërtes". In the Iliad and Odyssey there are several epithets used to describe Odysseus. Genealogy Relatively little is known of Odysseus's background other than that his paternal grandfather (or step-grandfather) is Arcesius, son of Cephalus and grandson of Aeolus, whilst his maternal grandfather is the thief Autolycus, son of Hermes and Chione. Hence, Odysseus was the great-grandson of the Olympian god Hermes. According to the Iliad and Odyssey, his father is Laertes and his mother Anticlea, although there was a non-Homeric tradition that Sisyphus was his true father. The rumor went that Laertes bought Odysseus from the conniving king. Odysseus is said to have a younger sister, Ctimene, who went to Same to be married and is mentioned by the swineherd Eumaeus, whom she grew up alongside, in Book 15 of the Odyssey. "Cruel Odysseus" Homer's Iliad and Odyssey portrayed Odysseus as a culture hero, but the Romans, who believed themselves the heirs of Prince Aeneas of Troy, considered him a villainous falsifier. In Virgil's Aeneid, he is constantly referred to as "cruel Odysseus" (Latin "dirus Ulixes") or "deceitful Odysseus" ("pellacis", "fandi fictor"). Turnus, in Aeneid ix, reproaches the Trojan Ascanius with images of rugged, forthright Latin virtues, declaring (in John Dryden's translation), "You shall not find the sons of Atreus here, nor need the frauds of sly Ulysses fear." While the Greeks admired his cunning and deceit, these qualities did not recommend themselves to the Romans who possessed a rigid sense of honour. In Euripides's tragedy Iphigenia at Aulis, having convinced Agamemnon to consent to the sacrifice of his daughter, Iphigenia, to appease the goddess Artemis, Odysseus facilitates the immolation by telling her mother, Clytemnestra, that the girl is to be wed to Achilles. His attempts to avoid his sacred oath to defend Menelaus and Helen offended Roman notions of duty; the many stratagems and tricks that he employed to get his way offended Roman notions of honour.
