The opening of "Troy," the 2004 film directed by Wolfgang Petersen, differs from Homer's "The Iliad" in its narrative style and focus. While "The Iliad" begins in medias res, directly addressing the conflict between Achilles and Agamemnon, "Troy" sets up the story with a broader exposition, showcasing the events leading to the Trojan War and the relationships among key characters. Additionally, "Troy" emphasizes visual spectacle and character-driven drama, whereas "The Iliad" is more focused on themes of heroism, fate, and the consequences of war. Overall, the film adaptation takes creative liberties to make the epic more accessible to a modern audience.
