The prophecy for Paris is to be dead . And for Helen is to be with many men . This 2 were destined to bring disaster wherever they are .Thanks for sharing this movie ❤
Fantastic movie. IMHO a better story than ""Troy"" . The personality of Helen is well pictured as a woman of those ages. Certainly to be a beautiful woman back then meant to be often raped in her lifespan, sometimes even in the street, as many ancient authors let on. So this movie is finally fair with Helen's history: she had no other fault than being a highly desirable woman for any men. By the way there are some minor flaws.... The woman raped on the altar was Cassandra, not Helen. And Theseus did not kidnap Helen but simply "took " her at the arena while she was exercising, all naked like all teenagers back then. And since Theseus was a reknown hero, (say like a pop star of the times) it was an honiur for her to receive his sexual attention. Warning, it wasn't an evil action, just an ordinary sexual activity of those ancient times.
James Callis has played many amazing roles, but Menelaus is, in my opinion, his best. What an amazingly deep and complicated character! And how did he somehow make us sympathetic, in spite of all the awful things he does? Indeed, everyone, even Agamemnon, has a sympathetic side. Well, except Achilles. He's pretty one dimensional. The sad ass 2004 Troy had an obligatory Hollywood happy ending, with Helen and Paris surviving to start anew. Not this one. Virtually everyone is massacred, and Helen must follow a man she doesn't love. Even worse, he knows she doesn't love him, but takes her with him anyway because he can't stop loving her. The two vanish into oblivion, having survived the horror, but condemned to a life of loneliness. Heartbreaking and fantastic...especially for a TV miniseries!!
That's why, on his return home, his wife Clytemnestra and her lover Aegisthus killed him in the bath. Greek mythology is so interesting, I love it. So many flawed characters, both mortals and gods.
@@luizadoca210 No, you did not understand the tragedy. Pious to the Gods, who play with lives of mankind, for their sheer amusement, and men must entertain. Same tragedy for Odysseus, who glorified himself and mankind, rather then Gods, and was punished. Agamemnon did as was required of him by the Gods, and his daughter gave her self to the pyre, as the Gods demanded. This is very nuanced, as we can not view the Homeric tragedy in separation from Greek concept of piety, and the relationship between Gods and mankind. Same, is the tragedy of Achilles, and so forth. Indeed, in accordance to Greek tradition, the only purpose for existence of humanity, is entertainment of the Gods, the mortal world, being little more then theater. To that end, even the Greek Cities themselves, there designed to be a kind of a stage, so what the Gods may observe the residents.
The stories vary. Either Agamemnon sacrifices Iphigenia, or Artemis takes her away at the last moment and replaces her with an animal. In the versions where Artemis replaces Iphigenia, Artemis takes her to Tauris to become her priestess. Iphigenia does not make it to the transition of marriage, but as a priestess of Artemis and a cult heroine, she protects women as they make that transition. At the cult of Artemis at Brauron, a ritual called the “Brauronian arkteia” takes place, where girls would “play the bear” before they marry. Girls would participate in activities like running races and dancing. They also wore yellow robes that symbolize bearskins. They would then shed these robes to complete their transition.
@@madeleinereads the original Homer version, does not vary. The latter Roman version, does. It can not vary, as doing that, would defeat the purpose of the plot. Agamemnon must have paid a royal price, to satisfy his claim, and Zeus nor Hera would not have otherwise. Anything less, would dishonor the Gods, as Agamemnon was required to pay the price for the weakness of his brother, Menelaus, and would in turn dishonor both Zeus and Hera, who gave lordship to house Atreus, over all of Helenes. The variation, is a later artistic interpretation, what no longer regards Greek pantheon. (Many ppl don't know this now a day, but the Iliad, and to the lesser extent Odyssey, are type of ancient Greek scripture.. not just literature)
Agamemnon chief commander of the Spartan forces in this movie by sacrificing his young doughter when the Olympian gods were trying to prevent the war wirh strog sea winds proved that Agamemnon's desire for his own personal ambitions over ruled reason. The Greek philosopher Plato wrote that the lowest element of evil is caused by desire overruling reason.
The Fall of Troy was about GREED, not Helen. I liked the movie it was another point of view but it raced through parts and missed parts. Andromache who was the mother of the heir after Hector wasn't anywhere to be found. I liked Cassandra her interpretation was very good. I loved Helen, a Spartan woman following her own needs, being married off to a much older man must have been awful no wonder she left with Paris...
Iphegenia, the favorite daughter of King Agamemnon, would have been of marriageable age, around 14 years then, when she was sacrificed in this story at 1:20:26.The goddess Artemis calls for the sacrifice as punishment because Agamemnon killed one of her stags in her sacred grove.
There was a 1977 film just about this part which was nominated at the oscars for best foreign film. The actress in the movie is about 13. It happened at Aulis in Greece according to legend which was a real greek harbour/Bay.
After everything, i truly believed that in every story there is either justice or a happy ending. Watching this is for educational purposes but after the 3 movies that my teacher assigned to watch, i can say that I WANT MOREEE ❣️
This is my favorite version of the tale. It tells a great story and the cast is wonderful. Rufus Sewell, Stellan Skarsgard, Matthew Marsden, Emilia Fox, John Rhys Davies, Jim Carter....
Thank you for uploading this. Troy (2004) brought me here. Excellent miniseries. Sienna Guillory is no Diane Kruger but she played Helen well. Rufus Sewell should have got a Emmy nomination for his portrayal of the cruel conqueror Agememnon.
she herself choose manelous because he was most handsome among others, and she helped paris attack and rob greece in absence of king manelous because paris was more handsome than manelous... but later she started hating paris because he was a coward who hardly stepped outside wall or go on a war...
How is that the lesson? Helen didn't have the choice to wait for anyone, even in this narration. If you read the illiad you would also know that her participation isn't part of the story. She was promised by Aphrodite. She gets no choice in any of it. Not in her marriage to Menelaus not her being spirited away by Paris, as she was either taken by force or helped by Eros, as part of Aphrodite's promise. Hence why she's later found to have gone back to Sparta with Menelaus during the odyssey. This version is a romanticized version that even still, failed to really give Helen agency considering she was still most likely heavily influenced by Aphrodite.
@@Larchkty0324 The one to blame here was Zeus for not keeping it in his pants once again.. Had not been that he seduced Queen Leda, whom by the way was married to a king already, then she wouldn't have been pregnant with Helen and Pollux. Aaaaand also tasking a mortal, Prince Paris, with judging divine Goddesses on the intricate and subjective concept of beauty. Like bro why???
My favorite poem, the “Iliad”, by Homer. Thanks for posting this mini series. Love that the ex-Bond Girl, D’Abo, and Rhys-Davies, the stunning supporting actor well known for appearing in epic movies, are portrayed in it.
You have read The Iliad and you LIKED THIS? You’re not offended by the way the butchered this brilliant piece of literature until the only thing similar to the The Iliad is the names of the characters?!? I’m pretty sure Homer is rolling in his grave!
@@Aspasia2929 I usually never respond to comments that i leave, but to yours, I shall. It is free for all works of art to be interpreted by the people who indulge in them, and this is no different. If you’d like to know about another twist of the Iliad, then I suggest you read “The Firebrand” by Marion Zimmer Bradley, which i thoroughly enjoyed devouring multiple times. Once again, as the old adage goes, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. I respect your abhorrence to this movie, but my comment, if you read it again, was simply identifying my favorite poem, and thanking the person for posting the mini series. I am always grateful when someone shares anything with everyone. I was also enchanted that D’Abo and Rhys-Davis had parts in it, because I recognized them, but especially enthralled about Rhys-Davis, as he has done so much in his career, but rarely gets any attention at all. If I allow myself to become indignant and easily offended by little things in life, such as this movie, I could never survive this world we exist in. As it is, I choose serene happiness and deep gratitude for all I get. I wish you much warm blessings and bright happiness always.
The one and only thing I remember from this mini-series is the scene where Clytemnestra jumps into the bath and is just wailing on her husband screaming, 'My daughter! My daughter!' as she stabs him over and over again. I was like, 'Hell yeah, kill him! Kill him!' No mercy.
JOHN 3:16 FOR GOD SO LIVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE.
Fact - Agamemnon survived the Trojan war. Helen lived the rest of her days out with Menelaus. On return home from Troy Clytemnestra does kill Agamemnon in the bath but not at Troy.
Clytemnestra wasn't alone her boyfriend helps her and her boyfriend is same person who killed Agamemnon and manelous father... agememnon explain this to odyssey when odyssey arrived at island of deads...
There are NO FACTS in this shit show that are remotely true to The Iliad other than the names of the characters and it takes place in Troy; they even call Achilles “Hercules” in one scene. Not that it mattered, that guy they cast came across like a CARTOON CHARACTER! Odysseus comes off as bumbling attorney who attended law school online but couldn’t pass the bar exam. Hector is a pussy and Paris is the badass who beats the shit out of him. This HORRIBLE production has NO resemblance to do with The Iliad aside from the names of the characters and it takes place in Troy! How did a BRILLIANT actor like Rufus Sewell ended up attached to this nonsense production?!? Doing scenes with Mr. Clean must have been torture for him, I swear I could see him cringing in many scenes, (good thing Agamemnon is an angry dude), I hope the $$$ was worth it!
I dont believe that. If the husband is not deserve to the woman and the woman suffered becauae of that man. And the true love come just, you must fight for it. Thats love, thats true love you die for it to fight for it. Love and sacrifice in the name of love is the enormost love of all. That not many can do that. To measure love you both fight for it. If you are christian. Why Jesus died and suffer? He died for you people of chriatianity right? Because he loves you.. My goodness people be matured enough
@@darlingbaby2303 easy answer. Rarity, and that means any mixed race... That does not look like a copy of whatever vast majority of the tribe they come from not what you're looking for because you asked who. Not sorry to have disappointed 😞
All the kingdoms of the earth during a certain time "sacrificed their children to heathen Gods. Even Israel and Juda when their kings worshipped heathen Gods !! Herod, Ahab etc. did it!! These kings married heathen woman and adapted to their religions to gain favor!!
Exactly my words . I never liked that Paris died she returned to Menelaous . Also that Paris probably after figuring out he was adopted he never saw his step dad again . Ifigenia s death horrible too . Priam s and Hecuba s death terrible and how Paris appeared at the end sad . Also Theseus death sad
One movie for the memory. It may not follow the poem in every way possible but it is far more enticing than the troy movie that should have been renamed to “brad p… err… achille’s muscles for 2 hours straight”.
Well it's quite a Translation of the Story apparently taken down by the Greek Philosophers. But who really Know's how it all happened? As for this Movies Version? I'M Not Overly Convinced it was Correct in Many Ways or in the Translation of the Event's that took place in far Off Troy. During the Ten Year's of the War & Troy's Eventual Destruction once the Trojan Horse 🐴🐴 was taken into the City. Now mulling it Over, and just Mentally comparing it to The Film TROY, with Brad Pitt, & Sean Bean and it's Stellar Cast, Direct by Mr Wolfgang Petersen. My POV is that Thier Film was More Complete about the Actual Siege, the Sacking, & the Capture of Troy. The Epic Single Fights n Battles between the Men Opposing Each Other during the Long War. The Story as Homer, wrote it, Was So Much more than just the Act of Getting Helen Back for King Menelaus anyways?. No the War was So many Other widespread Issue's of Politics amongst Conflicting, Rival Nation's? That the Excuse of Helen being Taken, or Willing leaving by Herself with Paris of TROY. That was just the Spark the Greek's Used too Start the Whole Ordeal, anyways. In Closing this Film was Pretty Decent, the Cast was Exceptional in Some Choice's, and Poor in Other's such as Helen's Actress. She didn't Impress Me an Awful Lot in Her Over all Portrall of Helen. So that's what I'm Thinking 🤔🤔 of it? That Helen of Troy was, A Three Star's ✨✨✨ Rating, where as TROY was a Solid Four Stars ✨✨ ✨✨ in My ahh Opinion. Forgive Me if I Offended anyone 😜🙂 Out there? But this is Only My POV I'm saying or even trying to Express to You's All Out there. Thank You for Sharing and wanting Our Responses by the Way. 🙏🙏🙏.
Creative Uplift: To the North East South and West world 🌍 wide may the Blessing of Heaven continue to shine upon you and yours on this beautiful day of the Lord Jesus Christ and God 2024. So mote it be ✝️. Amen 🙏. RQQ 👍✨.
In Greek Mythology, it is hard to tell which out-debauches the other, humans or the multiple gods in Greek Mythology. Interestingly, the Hebrew faith, and eventually the Christian faith arrives on this scene with a "one" God who commands humans to be more like the sinless God of the Bible and the prophets that proclaim this entirely different religion.
Soo??? People have independence to believe in watver faith and culture they come from.....It's not hard when you are searching for a moral of the story and message then the characters
@@nityathedoremon7128 Faith is built from hardships. New faiths are often different from established faiths. It is humanity's urge to make sense of hardships. It is also true that the development of organized faiths take a long time, last a long time, and fade away after a long time. You mistake my comment for something more than it was. I observed that "singular" God faiths arose out of this plethora of Gods and Godesses. Humans will never be completely godless. So what we know about the past and faith, will be added to. Unless we kill each other off first.
This was far more accurate than the movie "Troy." They did screw a few points up, such as the absence of Castor the mortal brother of Helen and Clytemnestra. A similar thing happened with the Clash of the Titans movies. The 1982 original is the far more accurate version than the more recent movie.
But most adaptations omit Helen's contempt for Paris and her desire to return to Menelaus. The Trojan prince's weaknesses and cowardice made her regret her choice (Afrodire's spell on her) was wearing off and Helen's passion for Paris was fading.
@@ἸλιάςὈδύσσειαmost adaptations also avoid showing the trojan women being taken as slaves back to Greece, while ironically Helen is allowed to return as Queen of Sparta.
The whole movie is honestly just ridiculous and inaccurate with all histories written at the time. And the comments just compliment it 'good movie', like wtf?
Troy was NOT located in what is now the country of Greece, it was located in present day Turkey, which is why ships were needed to get there. When Homer wrote “The Iliad” Greece was a collection of CITY STATES that were self governing independent countries and spoke different dialects. Most scholars believe Troy was an historic location where an actual conflict took place; however, “The Iliad” is a fictionalized version of the events. This war didn’t start because a weak, selfish boy named Paris was asked to settle a conflict between Athena, Hera, and Aphrodite, who are three MYTHOLOGICAL goddesses. BTW… this movie is a BADLY FICTIONALIZED version of “The Iliad”.
@@Aspasia2929 You try to learn to a Greek what iliad says? And dont forget that Greek language and Chinese are the only ones alive in world for centuries!
@@Aspasia2929 As regard troy, all that places in nowadays Turkey were Greek cities and colonies from ancient times. Do you know where was the Colhid city that Jason went? It was to nowadays Georgia (Colhid and Georgia, both Greek names). Do you know where Achileus grave was in past? In an island of Ukrane!
@@Aspasia2929 And as iliad was fiction as you and others say, what was your real ancient historic document on which you base your opinion? Or tell me if opinions, estimations and beliefs are facts of history! Why should I believe an opinion? I want a proof! The arheologists could find what civilisation existed there, the language, the religion or whatever else. So what they found that proves that iliad was a myth?

Warning, it wasn't an evil action, just an ordinary sexual activity of those ancient times.
I don't think you can beat actually reading Homer and other relevant texts. Still it's a commendable attempt to bring action to life.

All the kingdoms of the earth during a certain time "sacrificed their children to heathen Gods. Even Israel and Juda when their kings worshipped heathen Gods !! Herod, Ahab etc. did it!! These kings married heathen woman and adapted to their religions to gain favor!!
It led to Jehovah allowing the destruction of Jerusalem.
Very sad story...very heart breaking ending.,
Exactly my words . I never liked that Paris died she returned to Menelaous . Also that Paris probably after figuring out he was adopted he never saw his step dad again . Ifigenia s death horrible too . Priam s and Hecuba s death terrible and how Paris appeared at the end sad . Also Theseus death sad
My heart is paining i shouldn't watched till the end 💔 😔 😭 😢
Easy on the eyes actors😊 thanks
Beautiful movie i enjoyed watching it thanks❤
Paris and Helen both are Cursed by their parents 😢😢
Well acted movie
Agamemnon looked great in his red bathing robe at the end 😭😭😭😍😂🥰
Thanks you tube. This cause we watch that's like awesome series. Thanks again
One movie for the memory. It may not follow the poem in every way possible but it is far more enticing than the troy movie that should have been renamed to “brad p… err… achille’s muscles for 2 hours straight”.
Cassandra was right afterall😢

A facticecious movie..just enjoy
Well it's quite a Translation of the Story apparently taken down by the Greek Philosophers. But who really Know's how it all happened? As for this Movies Version? I'M Not Overly Convinced it was Correct in Many Ways or in the Translation of the Event's that took place in far Off Troy. During the Ten Year's of the War & Troy's Eventual Destruction once the Trojan Horse 🐴🐴 was taken into the City.
Now mulling it Over, and just Mentally comparing it to The Film TROY, with Brad Pitt, & Sean Bean and it's Stellar Cast, Direct by Mr Wolfgang Petersen. My POV is that Thier Film was More Complete about the Actual Siege, the Sacking, & the Capture of Troy. The Epic Single Fights n Battles between the Men Opposing Each Other during the Long War.
The Story as Homer, wrote it, Was So Much more than just the Act of Getting Helen Back for King Menelaus anyways?. No the War was So many Other widespread Issue's of Politics amongst Conflicting, Rival Nation's? That the Excuse of Helen being Taken, or Willing leaving by Herself with Paris of TROY. That was just the Spark the Greek's Used too Start the Whole Ordeal, anyways.
In Closing this Film was Pretty Decent, the Cast was Exceptional in Some Choice's, and Poor in Other's such as Helen's Actress. She didn't Impress Me an Awful Lot in Her Over all Portrall of Helen. So that's what I'm Thinking 🤔🤔 of it? That Helen of Troy was, A Three Star's ✨✨✨ Rating, where as TROY was a Solid Four Stars ✨✨ ✨✨ in My ahh Opinion. Forgive Me if I Offended anyone 😜🙂 Out there? But this is Only My POV I'm saying or even trying to Express to You's All Out there. Thank You for Sharing and wanting Our Responses by the Way. 🙏🙏🙏.

Trojan war one of the most famous stories in greek mytholgy

Thank you for sharing this remarkable movie.
Brilliant film
Hi Stephanie ❤❤❤❤❤
Great movie, great cast
Wow very nice
In Greek Mythology, it is hard to tell which out-debauches the other, humans or the multiple gods in Greek Mythology. Interestingly, the Hebrew faith, and eventually the Christian faith arrives on this scene with a "one" God who commands humans to be more like the sinless God of the Bible and the prophets that proclaim this entirely different religion.
Soo??? People have independence to believe in watver faith and culture they come from.....It's not hard when you are searching for a moral of the story and message then the characters
@@nityathedoremon7128 Faith is built from hardships. New faiths are often different from established faiths. It is humanity's urge to make sense of hardships. It is also true that the development of organized faiths take a long time, last a long time, and fade away after a long time. You mistake my comment for something more than it was. I observed that "singular" God faiths arose out of this plethora of Gods and Godesses. Humans will never be completely godless. So what we know about the past and faith, will be added to. Unless we kill each other off first.
The First Time I Watched This Movie It Was In 2004 .
Amazing pictures
Really enjoyed the story 😊
Thank you for uploading. This is fantastic.

How long must the People suffer, for the want of the Kings. When even the Good Kings fall, to the wishes (greed) of the Ruling Classes.
Sienna Guillory from Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004)
Spell binding!!
This is extremely incredible movie
Sim.Troia pagou caro pela paixão de Páris.
Good job
This was far more accurate than the movie "Troy." They did screw a few points up, such as the absence of Castor the mortal brother of Helen and Clytemnestra. A similar thing happened with the Clash of the Titans movies. The 1982 original is the far more accurate version than the more recent movie.
But most adaptations omit Helen's contempt for Paris and her desire to return to Menelaus. The Trojan prince's weaknesses and cowardice made her regret her choice (Afrodire's spell on her) was wearing off and Helen's passion for Paris was fading.
@@ἸλιάςὈδύσσειαmost adaptations also avoid showing the trojan women being taken as slaves back to Greece, while ironically Helen is allowed to return as Queen of Sparta.
The unique beauty of Sienna Guillory
I love a happy ending! 🤪
The Gods are so very cruel.
art museum shows paris, the apple gift, visitation by the goddesses, venus, Aphrodite, athena
The 1956 movie was in my opinion much better !
The 50s version is not perfect but has good production values.
you know what the greeks say about helen's beauty the gift from the gods you know what I mean
Is this the best they can do? This is the most beautiful virl they can find to be Helen?
Why do they mention Byzantium in this movie when it wasn’t even founded yet?
The whole movie is honestly just ridiculous and inaccurate with all histories written at the time. And the comments just compliment it 'good movie', like wtf?
Good point. This story should be set in the late bronze age.
such a beautil woman
Filmed in Malta.......
Rufus Sewell is fiiiiine.🔥
They should have returned Helen. 😂
I dont like this... My heart is bleeding 💔
May we never experience this kind of tragedy and disaster again...Amen.

Civil war among Greek cities! Troj was Greek city, people speaking Greeks and having Greek culture,Gods and language with Greeks!
Troy was NOT located in what is now the country of Greece, it was located in present day Turkey, which is why ships were needed to get there. When Homer wrote “The Iliad” Greece was a collection of CITY STATES that were self governing independent countries and spoke different dialects. Most scholars believe Troy was an historic location where an actual conflict took place; however, “The Iliad” is a fictionalized version of the events. This war didn’t start because a weak, selfish boy named Paris was asked to settle a conflict between Athena, Hera, and Aphrodite, who are three MYTHOLOGICAL goddesses. BTW… this movie is a BADLY FICTIONALIZED version of “The Iliad”.
@@Aspasia2929 You try to learn to a Greek what iliad says? And dont forget that Greek language and Chinese are the only ones alive in world for centuries!
@@Aspasia2929 As regard troy, all that places in nowadays Turkey were Greek cities and colonies from ancient times. Do you know where was the Colhid city that Jason went? It was to nowadays Georgia (Colhid and Georgia, both Greek names). Do you know where Achileus grave was in past? In an island of Ukrane!
@@Aspasia2929 And as iliad was fiction as you and others say, what was your real ancient historic document on which you base your opinion? Or tell me if opinions, estimations and beliefs are facts of history! Why should I believe an opinion? I want a proof! The arheologists could find what civilisation existed there, the language, the religion or whatever else. So what they found that proves that iliad was a myth?
