Just watched Troy again after some time and Achilles isn't a huge fan of obeying orders of Agamemnon. Why was he fighting for him from the beginning?
This may be a good opportunity to talk about historical realism in movies. The film "Troy" purports to be a "realistic" telling if the Illiad. How true of a claim can that really be? What other sources did they draw on to make it "more realistic"? Do we have any information about the events of the Illiad that didn't come from Homer?
