Film Description

The bitter trojan War drags on - the Greeks blame Achilles' apathy for low morale while Troy's hero Hector challenges one of the enemy to a personal duel. Miller pitches his production of Shakespeare's part history, part tragedy, between satire and savage farce, highlighting Shakespeare's cynical standpoint where love is mocked and heroism absurd.
