But that doesn't speak well for our popular culture, one that can't sustain the ambiguity and complexity of another culture-of 2700 years ago! Still, the movie has its strong parts, particularly Stanley Baker as Achilles. Perhaps in writing a commercial screenplay, that's what any writer would be forced to do. HELEN OF TROY is not the only effort to mis-read the Illiad into a Paris-and-Helen "runaway" love story. In one or two brief sequences, Paris fights valiantly, but in his major appearance, his winner-take-all-and-Helen duel with Menaleus, after bragging and crowing about his prowess, he completely wimps out in the battle, and, once defeated, is transported by Aphrodite back to Troy to hide in his bedroom. Helen expresses extraordinary contempt for him in one extended passage. Why does every popular culture effort at retelling the Trojan War myth have to make Paris the hero? In the Illiad, by far the most significant and authoritative source of the story, at best shows Paris to be an ambiguous figure-the best looking man of his generation, but often a coward in battle. HELEN OF TROY is a very respectable Hollywood sword and sandal effort from the 1950s, with a strong international cast and very good production values.
