Western civilization originated from ancient Greek civilization, and Homer's Epic is a treasure in ancient Greek literature and art. The film "Troy" has made significant changes to the "Iliad" part of "Homer", basically removing the mythological color, and turning the original melee between humans and gods into a story about human war, heroes and love. tragedy. Compared with the original Homer epic "The Iliad", the film is more prominent in the human factor rather than the gods. In the original book, the battle between Troy and Greece can be said to be a war between gods and gods. People are just small pieces, but they rely on own desire to kill, to destroy, and in the movie "people" Accounted for the most important weight, Achilles and Hector are the two most prominent characters in the film. These are two heroes who cannot escape their own tragic fate in the whirlpool of war. Although the film did not shoot the part of mythology, it still allows people to explore and understand that period of history and the mythical civilization of ancient Greece. One hundred thousand troops, two kings, two warriors, and one woman. This is a very famous war in myth and history - the Trojan War. The background of the outbreak of war in the film is as follows: Paris, the prince of Troy, came to Greece as a guest at the palace of Menelaus, the king of Sparta, but fell in love with the queen Helen and took the queen away. Menelaus and his brothers decided to attack Troy. Because the city of Troy was easy to defend and difficult to attack, the war took 10 years. In the end, the hero Odyssey offered a Trojan horse to slaughter the city. Troy was reduced to ruins overnight. The story described in Homer's epic has also become a famous piece of literature and art in Western countries. Before the ruins of Troy were discovered by Schliemann, Troy and the Trojan Horse were well known in the Western world, but no one believed that these were real histories that ever existed. Until June 15, 1873, the city of Troy, which had been buried for thousands of years by years of dust, finally met the world in Schliemann's persistent pursuit. It was confirmed that this was a battle of the Achaean Greeks over the Thracians in northwestern Asia Minor, and the result of this battle was the complete destruction of the city of Troy by the Greeks. At the beginning of the film, the theme was clearly declared, "Humans continue to pursue eternal life, and they must be famous for eternity, so that future generations know our glory and the great love that has happened to us." Achilles is just because Odyssey said "The heroes who participated in the war will be remembered through the ages." This sentence has entered the battlefield, which reminds me of the Chinese saying "the wild goose will leave their voices, and the people will leave their names". Looking through the ancient Greek mythology, I found that he was born for the Trojan War. He was the son of Thetis, the daughter of the sea god, and the human hero Peleus. It was also at his parents' wedding that the gods' "Golden Apple Controversy" occurred. , which led to the outbreak of the Trojan War. He has his own unique views on war and life. He does not seek wealth or beauty, but only for the honor of leaving his name through the ages. His participation in the war is more because of helplessness and a sense of mission. In the mediocre longevity and the hero's short-term hit, he still chose the latter without hesitation, "to die rather than live in silence", this is Achilles, he fights for his own honor, he wants to belong to his own era. He is an invulnerable warrior (heel is a weakness), an arrogant general, and a bloody man with rich emotions, as can be seen in the fact that the old king of Troy asked him to return Hector's body, and also here. Let people see the great courage and love for his son in the heart of an old man in his twilight years. Achilles was a born warrior, killing and bloodthirsty was a must, but when he wept over Hector's corpse, when he was furious when he learned of Patrox's death, he re-entered at the last minute Troy saves the woman he loves, and it can be seen that he finally knows how to love and how to respect. Achilles, the hero in myth, is indeed as Brad Pitt played in the movie: he has both the gentleness and kindness that cherishes his friends, and the pride and cruelty that kills himself. He is self-willed, sensitive, and compassionate. Heart. In the film, Hector is almost a perfect hero. There are three things in his life - fearing the gods, protecting his wife and guarding the country. He is a good son, a good brother, a good husband, a good father, and the same An opponent worthy of anyone's respect. He is the eldest prince of Troy, the most valiant warrior. He understands that his responsibilities are heavy, and the whole of Troy is on his shoulders. His words before the war: "For Troy! "; he is Paris' elder brother, and he bears the war debt paid by his younger brother for love; he is a husband and father, facing his wife and children, the tenderness in his eyes melts away, the warmth is like the sun, how much he wants to look cute His son grew up and became as good, brave and handsome as his father. But he couldn't, he carried the hopes of the whole city, and God let him die, and he was powerless to resist. His fate was noble and tragic, in mythology, this It is a game of God, and man is like a doll. He shed the last drop of blood for the country and wrote his heroic era. It can be said that Hector is a mirror of Achilles, and it is Hector who made him Chilios recognized himself. Of course, it was too late. As Achilles' mother had prophesied, when he sailed away from Mycenae, he would never return. Achilles Struggle fights for himself, Hector fights for the country, both of them are heroes who have been praised for thousands of years, but this may be the difference between demigods and humans. There is no doubt that these two heroes in the film Together, they composed a symphony of destiny in a mythical war. Now there seems to be a picture of the Troy survivors looking back at the flame-filled city of Troy after they escaped at the end of the film. The Troy War turned the city of Troy into ruins, and it created Countless tragedies have also created heroic images. What caused this war? It can be said to be a game of God, or it can be said to be a struggle for power by human beings. Often the words war and civilization have always been It has been widely discussed since it was put together. People often say that human civilization is promoted by war. The picture of war is often the killing of the same kind, and the annihilation after the blood is flying. One by one is left to watch the husband return. The bride and the lustful mother. War has always been ruthless and cruel, swallowing up all the good things, not only relatives and friends are suffering, the country is in distress, and the people of Li are also in dire straits. In front of the war, everyone is a victim, and the war is directly The source is people's greed and hatred. If the anger in the heart cannot be eliminated, the war will be triggered, and it will bring destruction and destruction to the world. But this always reminds me of the song "Young Battlefield", "Everything runs towards Future ideals and publicity. All the love and madness that broke through the bondage, today I finally stand on this young battlefield...
