Hold those barricades!
Archers to the rear.
Achilles.
Now!
Forward!
Enough for one day.
Yes.
Back to the ships!
It was his cousin.
To Troy!
Back to the city!
To Troy!
We were going to sail home today.
I don't think anyone's sailing home now.
Achilles.
You violated my command.
No, my lord. There was a mistake.
I ordered the Myrmidons to stand down.
You led them into combat.
I didn't lead them, my lord. We thought you did.
Where's Patroclus?
Patroclus!
We thought he was you, my lord.
He wore your armor, your shield, your greaves, your helmet.
He even moved like you.
Where is he?
- Where? - He's dead, my lord.
Hector cut his throat.
Don't!
Where are you taking me?
Do you remember how to get here?
Yes.
The next time you come here, follow the tunnel.
There are no turns, so you can't get lost. Just keep walking.
When you get to the end, you'll be by the river.
Follow the river until you get to Mount Ida.
Why are you telling me this?
- If I die... - No.
...I don't know how long the city will stand.
If the Greeks get inside the walls, it's over.
They'll kill all the men, throw the babies from the city walls.
- Please. - The women, they'll take as slaves.
- That, for you, will be worse than dying. - Why are you saying such things?
Because I want you to be ready.
I want you to get our boy, and I want you to bring him here.
You save as many people as you can, but you get here. And you run.
I killed a boy today.
And he was young.
He was much too young.
That boy has just saved this war for us.
- Eudorus. - My lord.
I need my armor.
No.
Don't go!
Rope!
Hector's my cousin. He's a good man.
Don't fight him. Please don't fight him.
Please.
No.
Hector!
Father...
...forgive me for any offenses.
I've served you as best as I could.
Hector!
May the gods be with you.
Hector.
No father ever had a better son.
Hector!
Apollo guard you, my prince.
You're the best man I know.
You're a prince of Troy.
I know you'll make me proud.
Hector!
Remember what I told you.
You don't have to go. You don't.
You remember what I told you.
Hector!
I've seen this moment in my dreams.
I'll make a pact with you.
With the gods as our witnesses...
...let us pledge that the winner will allow the loser all the proper funeral rituals.
There are no pacts between lions and men.
Now you know who you're fighting.
I thought it was you I was fighting yesterday.
And I wish it had been you. But I gave the dead boy the honor he deserved.
You gave him the honor of your sword.
You won't have eyes tonight. You won't have ears or a tongue.
You'll wander the underworld, blind, deaf, and dumb, and all the dead will know:
This is Hector, the fool who thought he killed Achilles.
Get up, prince of Troy.
Get up. I won't let a stone take my glory.
You lost your cousin.
Now you've taken mine.
When does it end?
It never ends.
Who are you?
I have endured what no one on earth has endured before.
I kissed the hands of the man who killed my son.
Priam?
How did you get in here?
I know my own country better than the Greeks, I think.
You're a brave man.
I could have your head on a spit in the blink of an eye.
Do you really think death frightens me now?
I watched my eldest son die...
...watched you drag his body behind your chariot.
Give him back to me.
He deserves the honor of a proper burial. You know that.
Give him to me.
He killed my cousin.
He thought it was you.
How many cousins have you killed?
How many sons and fathers and brothers and husbands?
How many, brave Achilles?
I knew your father.
He died before his time.
But he was lucky not to live long enough to see his son fall.
You have taken everything from me.
My eldest son...
...heir to my throne...
...defender of my kingdom.
I cannot change what happened. It is the will of the gods.
But give me this small mercy.
I loved my boy from the moment he opened his eyes...
...till the moment you closed them.
Let me wash his body.
Let me say the prayers.
Let me place two coins on his eyes for the boatman.
If I let you walk out of here...
...if I let you take him...
...it doesn't change anything.
You're still my enemy in the morning.
You're still my enemy tonight.
But even enemies can show respect.
I admire your courage.
Meet me outside in a moment.
We'll meet again soon, my brother.
Your son was the best I've fought.
In my country, the funeral games last for 12 days.
It is the same in my country.
Then the prince will have that honor.
No Greek will attack Troy for 12 days.
Briseis?
I thought you were dead.
You are free.
If I hurt you...
...it's not what I wanted.
Go.
No one will stop you. You have my word.
Come, my girl.
You're a far better king than the one leading this army.
Achilles makes a secret pact, and I have to honor it? What treason is this?
Consorting with the enemy king. Giving him 12 days of peace.
Peace!
Their prince is dead. Their army is leaderless.
This is the time to attack!
Even with Hector gone, we have no way to breach their walls.
I will smash their walls to the ground...
...if it costs me 40,000 Greeks.
Hear me, Zeus!
I will smash their walls to the ground.
That's good.
For my son back home.
Well, Odysseus.
You found a way to make the sheep invite the wolves to dinner.
Forgive me, Eudorus. I should never have struck you.
You've been a loyal friend all your life.
I hope I never disappoint you again.
It's I who have been the disappointment.
Rouse the men. You're taking them home.
Aren't you coming with us?
I have my own battle to fight.
Let me march beside you.
No. I don't want our men to be a part of this.
It's a beautiful night.
Go, Eudorus. This is the last order I give you.
Fighting for you has been my life's honor, my lord.
Open the gates!
Here.
Plague.
Don't go too close, my king.
This is the will of the gods.
They desecrated the temple of Apollo...
...and Apollo desecrated their flesh.
They thought they could come here and sack our city in a day.
Now look at them, fleeing across the Aegean.
What is this?
An offering to Poseidon. The Greeks are praying for a safe return home.
This is a gift. We should take it to the temple of Poseidon.
- I think we should burn it. - Burn it?
My prince, it's a gift to the gods.
Father, burn it.
Look at them.
You'd think their prince had never died.
You are the prince now.
Make your brother proud.
Briseis. Where is she?
- Where? - I don't know.
Please. I have a son.
Then get him out of Troy.
Briseis!
Paris! Andromache!
Helen. We must go.
- Where? - I'll show you. Now. Hurry.
Paris.
It's a long way. Quick. We must go now.
Briseis!
Paris!
Let it burn!
Let Troy burn!
Burn it! Burn it all!
Burn Troy!
It's a long way. Quick.
- Come. - I stay.
- No. - My father will never abandon the city.
I can't leave him.
The city is dead. They're burning it to the ground.
- What's your name? - Aeneas.
- Do you know how to use a sword? - Yes.
The sword of Troy.
As long as it's in the hands of a Trojan, our people have a future.
Protect them, Aeneas. Find them a new home.
- I will. - Hurry.
Paris, Briseis wasn't in her room.
I'll find her.
Go.
- I'll stay with you. - Go.
Please don't leave me.
How could you love me if I ran now?
We will be together again, in this world or the next. We will be together.
Go.
To the gate!
Soldiers of Troy...
...you men are warriors!
To lead you has been my honor!
My prince!
The boatman waits for us.
I say we make him wait a little longer!
Paris!
Have you no honor?
Too late for prayer, priestess.
I almost lost this war because of your little romance.
You'll be my slave in Mycenae.
A Trojan priestess scrubbing my floors.
And at night...
Get up!
Hold her.
Come with me.
No!
Paris!
No!
Stop! Please!
Paris! Don't!
It's all right.
You gave me peace...
...in a lifetime of war.
Briseis, come.
Go.
You must.
No.
Troy is falling.
Go.
We must go. I know a way out.
It's all right.
Go.
Briseis, come.
Go.
Find peace...
...my brother.
If they ever tell my story, let them say...
... I walked with giants.
Men rise and fall like the winter wheat...
... but these names will never die.
Let them say I lived in the time of Hector...
... tamer of horses.
Let them say...
... I lived in the time of Achilles.
