新木马屠城记

看完了电影，也许有人会说海伦事红颜祸水，特洛伊的二王子见色起意，一个意气风发的的王子，看到如此美貌的海伦，很难不动心，便有了想要带她离开的念头，爱情本俩没有错，但是身为王子，就要为自己的国家，子民，还有家人负责，你的行为不再简单的代表你自己的意愿，还有很多的人的期望，甚至国家的未来，这就是后来的战争。

谁都没有错吧，其实大家的立场不同就不同的声音，就像生活中，你是一位女士，在不经意间遇到了一位风度偏偏的男士，一见钟情，爱上了他，但当你知道他有了另一半的时候，你还要继续吗？

或许在你的角度，我爱他是我自己的事，不关乎任何人，我要勇敢地追爱，但在另一个角度，就会被认为是世俗的“小三”或者其他不好的骂名，而在上帝视角，你可能会觉得，这有什么呢？

世界上这么多的男人，你换一个不就行了吗？

但是，谁又经历过谁的经历，谁又能感同身受谁呢！

只是其中的一个方面！

但是作为一个智慧，勇敢的国王候选人，大王子没有好的结局，个人有点遗憾，但是正是这样的遗憾，淋漓尽致的表现了他的这样的优秀的品质了，这个王国太安逸了，正所谓天下之大，合久必分，分久必合吧，需要新鲜的血液，新的leader，新的面貌，继续往前走！

Actually, I firstly knew about the well-known myth,Troy,by reading comics when I was young,and that was also the first time I read a western myth with so many heroes.I felt the cruelty of wars and the inequality between human and divinity from the pictures and brief words sideward.To be honest,at that time,it was quite difficult for me to remember those heroes’ names because their names were too long and awkward to read.After I begun to learn English, I acquired that every name of ancient Greek people is of great meaning linked to their parents’ expectation,personal characters,experience or some other things.For example,Helen,the name of the heroine,means light in Greek.Reading their name in English is more smooth.When I can read the literature work of the myth and reflect it more deeply with age.The movie,Helen of Troy,shows us a famous Greek myth,which embraces intense desire,strong request for humanism,and deep love,apart from tragic wars.Though actors may be not able to reprise mythical figures in the movie perfectly because there are unique images of heroes and females in everyone’s heart and the movie don’t reflect the mythy in accordance with the literature completely,the movie reveals themes above excellently.The virtual origin of the war is intense desire.Hera,Athena and Aphrodite were all eager to be judged as the most beautiful goddess,and from my standpoint, the golden apple was the symbol of their desire. To realize their desire,Hera pleased Pairs with wealth, Athena pleased him with victory and glory,while Aphrodite promised the most beautiful woman of the world,Helen,to him.As a shepherd without noble birth,I think it’s normal for Pairs to choose Helen because apart from being accompanied with a beautiful woman to live a happy and simple life,wealth,victory and glory were almost rubbish for a mortal. At that time,compared with three goddesses,Pairs was a simple guy without strong selfish desire,but never could he think of that goddesses’ desire made wreaked havoc of war and his fate and Troy’s fate would experience major turning due to his selection.At beginning,Pairs did not want to bring wars to his motherland and Greek city-states.He was so poor to be condemned as the culprit of the war and Troy’s subjugation.In the movie,the desire of Greek kings that expanded their territory was also the origin of the war--it was unreasonable to launch a war which unified all Greek city-states’ power only for retaking a woman and safeguarding the reputation of Greece.In the movie,when Menelaus was aware that he couldn’t kill his rival,Pairs,on account of the guard of god,so he stopped attack.Then the two men sat down together and had a talk about Helen and the war calmly--their final silence indicated their consensus that the war was actually meaningless and people should have not killed each other.Later Helen’s surrender could not stop the war,which also proved the main purpose of Greek armies was not Helen. As I see it,Pairs was innocent,and it was the desire of gods and kings brought people pain.Like many other western myths,strong request for humanism is also an important topic of the myth. It’s widely believed that the origin of humanism in western world lies in Greek culture.Humanism advocates personal freedom,equality and self value that are strongly expected to get by oppressed people. The myth can be perceived as a Greek condemnation on oppression and the strong request for humanism--people ought to dominate their own fate and their lives shouldn’t be toys of power.From the beginning to the end,gods made great difference.It’s unusual that the movie shows the power of gods indirectly--no god appeared in the battlefield but their power existed.It’s easy to find that people were unable to resist the wish of god and the duels between two heroes were interfered by gods’ power,which led to numerous amazing results.Beside,in my opinion,Princess Cassandra is a crazy,cold and poor figure whose spiritual world was dominated by gods--she clung to oracle that if Paris lives,Troy will be burnt,and she attempted to prevent the oracle coming true by a negative means--kill her brother.What she wanted to do was so cruel and in the meanwhile,her life was obsessed by the oracle,which led her life unhappy and full of scare.To be honest,the act of the actress exaggerates the image of Princess Cassandra,but it can immerse ourselves in ancient Greek’s fear to the gods and their prediction,how god’s power controlled people’s life and people’s strong request for humanism.Last but not least,the element of love will never absent in Greek myths.I find that love is the common nature of human,nymphs as well as gods in Greek myths,and love can’t be eliminated completely by no means.The first scene of the movie was the birth of Paris-- when Paris was born,his elder sister，Princess Cassandra,who had the power to see into the future told her father,the king of Troy,a dire prediction that if the baby boy lives,Troy will be burnt.Thus the king decided to abandon the little baby,at that moment,it was maternal love that prompted the queen of Troy to struggle to rise up to recapture her son,but she failed. Many years later,when the king and the queen realized that the guy on the sand of the colosseum was their abandoned son,they hugged their son and recognized him,forgetting the terrible oracle.The plot of the movie was adopted from the literature and added more details about sincere emotions of human.For example,when Paris limped after a desperate fight against Menelaus,Hector offered to take the place of his injured brother to challenge Agamemnon--this is love between brothers.No matter how cruel the war was,sincere emotions always existed.All in all,war is not the core theme of the myth or the movie.I believe concepts that worth pondering in the myth or the movie are abundant.

特洛伊战争是荷马史诗的第一部，讲述了希腊人如何攻打特洛伊人的整个过程。

在里面诞生了两个史诗级的英雄，阿基琉斯和赫克托。

两个都是我很喜欢的人物。

但我认为在电影的前半段他们只能被称作勇士，在经历了内心重大选择的洗礼后他们才可以被称作真正意义的英雄。

首先，阿基琉斯在神话中是人和神之子，但是电影中没有像神话一样把他形容得像一个不死之身。

他在无敌的同时也是桀骜不驯的，但是拥有巨大力量的阿基琉斯却很迷茫，似乎他的存在只有征服和杀戮，他一直奉行的个人英雄主义背后却是满满的空虚。

而赫克托，是一个好儿子，一个好哥哥，一个好丈夫，他是一个好王子，他为了国家而战，为了所有国民而战，他没有退缩，承担了属于王子的那份责任。

但面对阿基琉斯的对决他也同样动摇过，看着妻子熟睡的侧脸和隆起的小腹，他也渴望自己能够陪伴在家人身边，谁不希望可以好好活着呢？

可悲壮的是他明知自己会输，也勇然为了自己的国家依然选择了一场赴死的战斗其中值得一提的是我被阿基里斯的伟大和深厚的英雄主义色彩震撼到的瞬间，并不是他以一敌百的时刻，也不是他为表弟复仇的怒火。

而是在木马屠城时，他最先想到的是拯救那个心爱的女祭司的生命。

在这时驱动他前进的并不是之前一直奉行的个人荣誉与尊严，而是爱。

也同样是爱带来的恐惧与脆弱，让他暴露了弱点和软肋，并最终为爱而死。

但也正是爱，让他人性的一面烨烨生辉，让那个所向披靡，整个希腊为之颤抖的战神留名万世，让后人都生活在阿基里斯的时代。

我喜欢希腊的勇士，喜欢他们的勇气，喜欢他们最求人的价值。

这是一个伟大的时代，也是一个英雄的时代。

而这部电影，告诉我们真正的英雄主义是可以怀揣着脆弱与恐惧前行的。

没有弱点的是神，而爱与信念才是让我们可以“明知不可为而为之”的第一驱动力。

这部电影我是大学时候在网吧里看的，但小学时候就在图书馆看过《荷马史诗•伊利亚特》了，这部电影老实说要远远比皮特的《特洛伊》要写实得多。

《新木马屠城记》里的海伦远比《特洛伊》里的要可爱、清纯、唯美，有一种想到保护她的欲望，虽然没有达到完美的境界，但也有85分了。

而里面阿伽门农的表演堪称一代枭雄，有着希腊主人的王者气息，这点和《伊利亚特》里的描述基本上接近。

完全盖了男主角的戏，整个希腊半岛几乎都拜服在阿伽门农的淫威之下，尤其是他的弟弟斯巴达王～那个我们心目中无比强悍的战斗民族斯巴达人的王竟然如此对阿伽门农马首是瞻。

而帕丽斯的故事实际上和《伊利亚特》也是一致的，增加了更多的英雄气概，原著里确实是有他打败特洛伊第一强者～王太子赫克托尔的描述，但电影里他并不是一个小人，而是一个为了真爱敢于冒险的大丈夫，可能西方人没有中国人传统的那种忠贞不渝的概念，所以电影可以这样拍。

战争场面一般，但也看的下去，这部电影里主要是文戏比较精彩，所以战争场面并不是重点，在文戏上，尤其是存在阿伽门农的场景，你都可以感受到这位希腊的霸主的王者气息。

总觉得女人的过分美丽真的是一种罪过——你可以如此的肆意，哭的最无辜，笑的最灿烂。

更可以让无数的男人为你不惜一切，连生命都不要。

真是不知道那些家伙在想些什么，仅仅为了你的美丽么？

仅仅，或者这个词用的很无耻，这样一个迷人的女子，连我都认真的爱她，何况那些男人？

然而女孩对女孩的爱是完全不同的吧……没有看上她的脸，不会嫉妒。

这种透明的爱和喜欢，是只想着迷乱的男人所无法感受的……女爱是为大爱，也可能被骂是les，无畏。

可是海伦啊，我又是这么恨你…………当女孩子已经只能靠着男子生存时，她就丧失了自己的本性了吧？

即便你再灿烂的对着我笑，总还是少了什么的……当命运的指轮落到你丈夫里，当你母亲背转身不再要你时，你是否想过反抗呢？

特洛伊完了，帕里斯不在了，你被你丈夫拖回去的时候，我真的看到回身看我的你，静静的流泪了……佳人倾城……

当时买这个版本开始是因为记错了，以为是皮特的版本，后来看的时候才发现不是。

片子比较长，但是看的时候没有觉得时间，因为情节比较紧凑，场面和演技不逊于皮特的Troy。

待到后来去影院看了Troy皮特版，反而觉得不如这个片子了。

没有丢掉原本故事的味儿，但又有了更丰富的情节。

Helen是一个更重要的线索，正如标题所说。

叫“木马屠城”却总觉得有点奇怪。

还是很感人的。

每一个角色都塑造的很不错。

甚至连Paris都没那么讨厌了。

阿伽门农和墨涅拉奥斯的形象我很喜欢。

尤其后者。

觉得他们已经不是高度抽象的英雄，而是有人性的真实存在。

阿伽门农一开始就意欲占有海伦。

但海伦只是一个借口，他最渴望征服的是征服特洛伊。

墨涅拉奥斯是个软绵绵优柔寡断的家伙。

我很喜欢他和Hector决斗那段。

不过电影在表现时间跨度的时候手法并不高明。

并没明显感觉到有10年之久。

Hector那么快就死了...弱化啊弱化！

我绝对是有不满的...整个故事很有神话的味道。

服装，音乐，人物的口音与语气。

觉得每个人都像极了我心目中的那个神话人物。

无论是英雄们，还是女人们（尤其是Cassandra）。

只是海伦一开始天真活泼的样子有点费解...最后交代清楚阿伽门农死在了他老婆的手里，也是一个很不错的手法。

觉得只有这样，一个歌颂爱情的故事才算是有了完整的结局。

百度百科是谁写的？

谁说这是烂片来着？

照我说，有Brad Pitt的那个版本才是烂片。

别叫Troy,叫Achilles风流传算了，更商业更吸引...

借给看过彼特饰演的特洛伊的好友，觉得还是这个更好些，起码在选角色上让人比较信服。

奥兰多饰演的主人公未免太瘦弱了，而这部的演员，包括海伦在内，都给人无比深刻的印象。

因为有对比，所以觉得还不错，推荐之。

美国眼中的希腊时代民主观念，带着消灭传说的实用主义，宣扬独立自由的明显倾向，可是这种诠释带着太多的理想化成分和意识形态的侵略心理，这是原本现实可见的事物变得像是完美的天堂，too good to believe，就是这个意思。

特洛伊战争可谓是因一个女人而引发的战争，不由得让我想到“红颜祸水”这一成语，然而这并非海伦之意。

虽然拥有着倾国倾城貌，却无法与自己的爱人厮守一生，最终自己爱情的归宿还得由残酷厮杀的战争决定。

相信更多的人不是羡慕她的美貌而是怜悯她的遭遇吧。

爱情是伟大的，它另两个男人为爱付出一切，但是斯巴达王的爱是盲目的，因为他倾尽兵力冒险争夺的虽然是他的妻子，却不是他的爱人。

如果他能觉悟到这点，或许就能避免一场血腥的战争了吧。
