Achilles | The Greatest Warrior (Troy)

"This will be the greatest war the world has ever seen. We need the greatest warrior."

Achilles, Son of Peleus.
I had been meaning to make a video on this character for a while. I made a Hector video previously and so this completes the pair! I'm a fan of Ancient History and even chose it as part of my university degree. Achilles is the most complex and interesting character in the Iliad, a poem said to be written by the mysterious figure called Homer.
The Iliad is all about the rage of Achilles after a falling out with Agamemnon and the death of Patroclus in what was the most eventful time of the Trojan War.
A wild, emotional warrior that cannot be slain so easily. Even when he died by Apollo/Paris' arrow, he remained undefeated in hand-to-hand combat. He was so legendary and regarded as the greatest Greek, even the likes of Alexander the Great wanted to be like him, and is said to have kept a copy of the Iliad under his pillow! It is a hard video to make, but I tried to include most about his ambitions and put a particular emphasis on war and the recoils of being a great warrior. Troy (2004) portrays that emotion brilliantly with Brad Pitt and the other leads. Whilst the historical inaccuracies are very evident, this film is still epic and memorable to me. The Iliad truly is an epic story and it's crazy to think that after thousands of years, it's still spoken of and popular to this day. Thank you for watching :)
