Troy: myth and reality
Posted by Jim |
We’ve pretty well forgotten about Troy and its war these days. But this show corrects that in thrilling fashion. It doesn’t glorify war but encourages us to examine how emotions like love, duty, desire, and revenge, can bring out the best in us and the worst. We might have forgotten much of the myth nowadays but the story of Troy is a reminder of our capacity for good and evil. And for this warning, we should be grateful.
