In the year 1193 B.C., Paris, a prince of Troy
fallen in love with Helen, Queen of Sparta,
when he went to Sparta as a goodwill embassy.
He took her away from her husband, Menelaus.
For Menelaus,it's affront.Not only for him
but also whole of Greek.
Agamemnon who is brother of Menelaus decided to
make a attack for Troy with 40thousand Greek soldiers
In truth, there is another reason why he agreed with
brother's opinion.-To invade Troy for him-
For him there was no matter Helen.
At that time,Priam who is king of Troy was faced
with the choice of fighting against Greek of
panishing his son Paris.
Then they decided to fight against Greek.
In Greek,there was a strong soldier who name is Achilles
But he never bow before authority. He's totally maverick
If he would fight...for honor.
Before he went to war, he have been in his mother Thetis.
She is also revelator,she said your name would achieve
legendary status but you would be die...

Zeus planed to declease pouplation somehow
then he held the congress but he didn't
invite Eris who is god of war.
She throw away a apple which mension
"Who is the most beautiful godless"
Athene, Hera, Afrodite contested each other
End of debate,Paris who is prince of Troy
was invited to decide it.
They tried to oil his hand but Afrodite
said I give you the most beautiful woman
i the world.
She was Helen whose mother is Leda father
is Zeus. She grew up in Sparta.
You don't have to forgot about it
It planed by Eris,Paris take off her
they Trojan war opened.
Many of people died...
But there was no myth story in this film
Just draw "human drama between man and man"
Screenwriter D.Benioff who wrote 25thhour
,draw "true ledendary hero is not king"
For me, the most devestate scene was
end of Patrocros who is cousin of Achilles.
Probably Screenwriter put on the drama for
the film.
D.Cruger who perform Helen was beautiful though
As far as I'm concerned she is more beautiful
in Michael Valliantthan this movie.
