Troy

- This item is used Description Over the ages, humans have waged war. Some to gain power, others for glory - and still others because of love. In ancient Greece one of history's most legendary couples led civilization to ruin with their love: Paris, Prince of Troy (Orlando Bloom), and Helena, Queen of Sparta (Diane Kruger). When Paris stole Helena from her husband, King Menelaos (Brendan Gleeson), it was an offense that had to be avenged. Family honor meant that an insult to Menelaos was also an insult to his brother Agamemnon (Brian Cox), the powerful king of Mycenae, who quickly gathered all of Greece's armies to steal Helena back and defend his brother's honor. But Agamemnon's mission was clouded by greed: He wanted control of Troy to secure his already vast kingdom. Troy was ruled by King Priam (Peter O'Toole) and defended by the mighty Prince Hector (Eric Bana). The city was surrounded by a high wall that no army had ever been able to breach. But a man can single-handedly conquer Troy: Achilles (Brad Pitt), the mightiest warrior of his time. Achilles' thirst for eternal glory knows no bounds, and in a arrogant belief in his own invincibility, he attacks the gates of Troy under Agamemnon's banner. But it is love that becomes his final fate! Two kingdoms go to war to gain power and glory. Thousands will fall in the pursuit of honor. And because of love, a nation will fall.
