Troy: Greek Gods Made Human
from Tales of Our Time
Amanda and Rti host Joey Chou discuss 2004's Troy (directed by Wolfgang Petersen). We talk about the ways in which the "epic historical war film" actually humanizes the characters, and the story overall, not only by physically removing the gods from the story, but also by giving us a visual touchstone for why people act the way they do. (Spoilers, its probably ego...)
