Movie Reviews of Troy: Myth Or Reality?

Movie Review: Troy DVD
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchased this doccumentary to use as an introduction to The Odyssey in my High School English classes. It was a very good illustration of the art and the area in those times. The fact vs. reality aspect lent itself to some interesting discussions and activities, and overall it was an excellent addition to the classroom. You know it's a good show when the students talk about it and mull it over outside of class... and that is what happened with this DVD.

Summary of Troy: Myth Or Reality?

How much is truth, how much myth, in the strange world, reminiscent of Middle Earth, which Homer created in the Iliad? Lasting over a decade, the Trojan War began in 1193 B.C. after Prince Paris of Troy stole away Helen from her husband, the King of Sparta. The Greeks waged a bloody war with their entire army on Troy. Eventually, it was a wooden horse that brought doom to the once great city-state. A war that was started because of the love between a man and a woman, that to this day is one of history?s greatest stories. The story of the siege of Troy is an irresistible combination of myth and legend. But how much of this extraordinary story is spiced with fact?

? Troy - where the affairs of men are said to have become entwined with the will of the Gods.
? Troy ? where the love between a man and a woman sparked a war that lasted for ten years.
? Troy ? where a wooden horse brought doom to a once-great city.
? Troy - what is truth, what is legend - and how do we tell them apart?
