|
In the year 1193 B.C., Paris (Bloom), a prince of Troy, stole Helen (Kruger), Queen of Sparta, away from her husband, Menelaus (Gleeson), setting the kingdoms of Mycenaean Greece at war with Troy. The Greeks began a bloody siege at Troy that lasted over ten years. Achilles (Pitt) was the greatest hero among the Greeks, while Hector (Bana), the eldest son of Priam (O'Toole), King of Troy, embodied the hopes of the people of his city.
