If They Make An Adaptation Of The Iliad And They Cast Someone As Timothe Hal Chalamet To Play Paris.

If they make an adaptation of the Iliad and they cast someone as Timothée Hal Chalamet to play Paris.

I'll be like :ok you're right, but BUT I DON'T LIKE IT

the cool thing about the iliad is that almost everyone in it is a horrible person and/or literal war criminal, so you get to judge characters EXCLUSIVELY by vibes. anyway i don’t blame paris for the trojan war but he IS a little shitheel and i want him out of my city

You were lying to me, when you'd jump on my bed and say "When you die, grandma, I will cut my hair for you, and bring all my friends to sing at your grave."

I'm not like an Agamemnon stan or anything but I do kinda wish people stopped portraying his sacrifice of Iphigenia as being like, him being totally heartless and stuff. Because it's not -- that's the point, right? By forcing him to kill his own daughter, it's giving him a deeply personal stake in the war. It's 'you want to go across the sea to kill people who know nothing and have done nothing? fine. prove it.' It's about him having to commit to war in its entirety, the pain that most of the Achaean forces never will.

Obviously it's a bad thing. And yeah, Clytemnestra deserves to kill him for sacrificing their daughter. But if he didn't care about her, if it didn't tear him up inside to put his own daughter on the altar, why wouldn't he be asked to sacrifice anything else?

⚠️ Ok, again they are bad people, BECAUSE SOME people think I don't know.THESE PEOPLE ARE EVIL AND THEIR ACTIONS TOO.DO NOT IMITATE THEM PLEASE⚠️

⚠️Gods are responsible for the war FACT, BUT they are not responsible for the cruelty inflicted on innocent Trojans.⚠️

⚠️It does not justify their actions and in a culture and period full of war and suffering⚠️

Cassandra of Troy - some clothing studies

The daughter of King Priam and Queen Hecuba, Cassandra was the princess and prophetess of Troy.

The most common version of the myth states that she was admired by the god Apollo, who sought to win her over by means of the gift of seeing the future. But when Cassandra rejected him, he cursed Cassandra that her prophecies may never be believed. In another version (Aeschylus), she tricked Apollo into granting her the gift of prophecy but refused to lie with him and was cursed by the god.
