I always enjoy watching historical films. And many of us started our journey as a history film with Troy film. There is no way to be surprised at the history of Troy, the battlefield scene. This is a must watch film for any film audience in my opinion.

Troy film directed by Wolfgang Petersen. Historical Wire, a drama genre film. One of the best films in the Troy historical genre starring Brad Pitt, Orlando Bloom, Brian Cox, Eric Bana. There may be spoilers for the story of the film as the text contains information taken from history. I'm sorry for that.

The story of Homer's immortal creation taken from the Iliad. The details of Troy are known from Homer. The emergence of a civilization, its sudden collapse, the city of Troy will always be immortalized in the pages of history. Kazi Nazrul Islam said,
"Some of the greatest creations in the world are everlasting good, half done by women, half done by men."
Whether on the battlefield or in everyday life, women are said to be one of the sources of inspiration. Nazrul may have explained the role that women play in the work of men with love and inspiration. There is also the reverse of the coin. I will mention that at the very end.
The state of Anatolia in present-day Turkey was a city called Troy. The king of this historic city of Troy was Priyam and the queen's name was Hekba. Their beloved son was named Paris. This Paris was the main culprit behind the Battle of Troy. The prince falls in love with Helen, the wife of Menelaus, king of the Spartan kingdom of Paris, Greece. He then fled to Troy with Helen. This led to the war between Sparta and Troy. The story is so striking and thrilling that the battle of Troy occupies a significant place in Greek and Roman literature. Surely the great poet has heard Homer's name. His two epics, the Iliad and the Odyssey, have made this romantic tragedy immortal. Since then many more famous poets have written about the Battle of Troy. These include the Greek poets Herodotus, Sophocles, and the Roman poets Virgil and Ovid. It is through these writings that we learn the story of Helen, Paris, Achilles, Hector, Agamemnon, Odysseus, and other characters involved in the Battle of Troy, including Ajax.
Helen is still a questionable woman in the world. Helen was the most beautiful lady in the world at that time. Helen was the wife of the Spartan king Menelaus. On business, Paris traveled to Sparta with her brother Hector. Menelaus welcomes Trojan princes. In their honor, Menelaus hosted a sumptuous dinner. Menelaus introduces them to everyone. Paris is fascinated to see Helen there With the help of Aphrodite, Paris slowly took place in Helen's mind. Fascinated by Paris, Helen agrees to run away with him and is able to escape from Sparta unnoticed as planned.
Naturally the Spartan king would be angry at this. Paris was young and naturally inclined to go astray. Maybe all the debt could have been settled if Helen had been returned. But to have an ego clash means to be on the battlefield. And that is what happened in the case of the two states. Hector was intelligent, just the opposite of Paris 7 In a word, this illicit relationship between Helena and Paris led to the downfall of Troy.
Achilles was one of the most important characters in the war. Achilles will fight in battle only for the king's orders. Achilles is a hero. Due to his sword skills and tactics, he has a huge giant in front of him. Achilles' attack on Troy had a completely different purpose. Achilles lived alone. There is no Archie at seven. But what else is there in such a life? Enjoy the female body, at the end of the normal life, she will have to grow old. One day everyone will forget who Achilles was. But his mother persuaded him to go to the battlefield.
"It is not possible to stay in the pages of history by enjoying a carefree life. In the course of time, everyone forgets. Only if he becomes a hero in war will his heroism be written in history. History will make him immortal."
Achilles and Satepanche have been living since then. But he must be in the pages of history. There is only one way ...
This story from 1250 BC, when set designing the Bronze Age, was undoubtedly a difficult thing to tell. Wolfgang Petersen not only succeeded in that challenge but also made history in the historical film.
It goes without saying that actors like Brad Pitt are new. But his Achilles character portrait is undoubtedly one of the best of his career. Hector character was my favorite. A different film can be made with this character. This character teaches loyalty, heroism and self respect at the same time. Eric Bana has done a great job. The background score was enough for the buzz bump. And the battlefield scenes seemed so lively as if I was standing on the battlefield. This three-hour epic probably didn't bore me for even a second.
The fall of Troy might not have happened if Helen had not had an illicit affair with Paris or escaped. If you look at it like this, you will find the contribution of women behind the fall of any empire in war. Whether it is for crookedness or illicit relationship or any other reason. You don't have to travel far. Ghaseti Begum is showing it with her fingers in her eyes. So in a similar way,
"এ বিশ্বের যতো কিছু ঘটেছে চির ধ্বংসকর, তার পেছনে ছিলো নারী সাথে ছিলো তার নর!"
It's a Bengali proverb. Poet Nazrul wrote it. This means that half of the welfare in this world is contributed by women and the other half by men.
Personal rating: 9/10
