Movie And A Beer Episode 72: Troy

On this 'sandals and swords' episode of Movie And A Beer we discuss the 2004 classic movie Troy with our friend and guest host Aaron. Directed by Wolfgang Petersen and starring a wide range of famous actors to include Brad Pitt, Brendan Gleeson, Orlando Bloom, Diane Kruger, and Brian Cox among others, this old-school epic follows Homer's the Illiad of the war between the Spartans and Trojans over Queen Helen.  While this three-hour movie was a bit long, drawn-out, battle-ridden, and beautifully designed, we found ourselves enjoying a few cans of lager/pilsners from Von Ebert's (OR), 54'40' (WA), and Cloudburst Brewing (WA). Give the episode a listen to hear us discuss our view on these battling "countries" and how the beers went with the film.
