the highlight of this film (except for Helen) is that the portrayal of human nature is not about how real the characters are (for example, I think few people actually do the kind of Hector who can clearly Random arrows shoot the most powerful enemy and go to death, well, or try their luck) but in that it reproduces the tragic personality of the hero in Greek mythology and the contradiction of fate when the handsome Prince Paris escapes When the duel field grabbed his brother's legs and trembled, when Achilles vented his excessive energy and youth to Hector, the Trojans and even his own people, and showed the audience his skilled killing skills and brutality, when Hector When you questioned the priests with contempt where the army of the sun god was, I saw several real hero (protagonist) characters with personalities and their tragedies had nothing to do with divinity, but about humanity and destiny,
so I would rather believe when cowardly The prince said to Helen come with me We'll be abandoned by the world and cursed by the gods but I'll love you forever and he's serious I'd rather believe when the wicked Achilles shows a touch of tenderness to his lover to a child who is weaker than his enemy I'm not mistaken, I'd rather believe that when Hector first ordered the ship to be turned back to Sparta and then changed his mind after knowing the stupid things his brother did, when he accidentally killed the Spartan king, he was a brother rather than a A general a defender of a country thinking I'd rather believe that the old king finally pleaded with Agamemnon to spare the children and innocents He really wanted to save his subjects as a king even if he would rather be ahead for his son Betting on the nation as a father I'd rather believe it's human nature
As the first protagonist of the whole film and the hero Achilles with the legendary god-like mother, the treatment of the hero is of course different from other heroes - he is the only one who was clearly informed of his choice and the resulting The man of unalterable destiny and his choice of course is obviously and must be to go to Troy in pursuit of eternal honor even if he gave up his life (otherwise there would be no film) Although in "Odyssey" he has already reached the underworld, and he has no doubts about Odysseus. Said he would rather give up all the glory in exchange for even one day in the world, even if it is to be a lowly slave, but some things will not change, and some choices cannot be changed once they are made. Just like fate in the film Achilles actually has Once wanted to go back and take the priestess away to the first life her mother described to him, but it was too late, and it couldn't have been before he was born when he set foot on the ship heading for Troy. Doomed so when you can't have any more you're left with only eternity (the vastness of eternity) Achilles! Maybe it should be said that everything from Prometheus through the famous sacrifice of the division to determine the boundaries of divinity and human nature and also determined the mortality of human beings are already doomed to be unchangeable
. Ironically, as the first executioner in the film Achilles also seems to have the deepest understanding of human nature, so on that beautiful night he said to the priestess that rebellious but also the splendid line of the whole film:
I'll tell you a secret...
...something they don't teach you in your temple.
The gods envy us.
They envy us because we're mortal.
Because any moment might be our last.
Everything's more beautiful because we're doomed.
You will never be lovelier than you are now.
We will never be here again.
