Troy
Troy,a film about warfare and love,tell us an impressive story.
3200 years ago,after decades of warfare Agamemnon,king of Mycenae,had foced the kingdoms of Greecce into a loose alliance.Only Thessaly remained unconquered.Agamemnon’s brother Menelaus,king of Spata,is weary of batttle.He seeked to make peace with Troy,the most powerful rival to the emerging Greek nation. As a result,the two reached a peace agreement.Unfortunately,Paris ,the prince of Troy,had a crush on and took away Queen Halen,Menelau s’s wife,which pissed off Menelaus. He wanted revenge. So he came to his brother Agamemnon to seek help. Then they jioned together to attack Troy with the greatest force the world had ever seen.There came the war.
In the war,Achilles,persuaded by Odysseus,the most sagacious king of Greece,fighted for the Greek,while Hector defend his own country. Once Achilles and Agamemnon were on bad terms because of somenthing personal,and Achilles put up his sword. To trojans,it would be a appreciation,but they provoked the Greek by actively attacking them. Ptroclus ,however,went to the front with Achilles’s armor,ending his life under Hector’s sword. Hector got killed in that Patroclus’s death set Achilles on fire.
The war went on after 12 days.For this time,the war ended quickly because of Trojan Horse and collaboration.Finally,Troy was razed to the ground and Achilles got killed by Paris due to seeking Briseis.
That’s just the film story.As for the leading roles,I like and admire Hector best.
In the film,Hector is a representative of tragic figure. Unlike Achilles run after honor and the immortality of name,Hector performed more humanity and responsibility as a man. As Paris’s brother, he promised to protect Paris from the consequence of taking home.At that time,he would have known city-states and their own destiny. Despite his contempt for his brother's cowardice, he assumed the guilt;after the manslaughter of Patroclus, he calmly accepted the challenge. It was he that made his soldiers understand a man's dignity: to protect their honor, to love their family, and to fight for their own country.。
