Hey baybee! Enjoyed your comments very much. Sean Bean was totally the heart-stealer in this, I thought. Eric Bana is my new boyfriend, though. *g*

And I'm not going to go into all the inaccuracies in dress and scenery and property, because what would be the point? Although I *have* to say Agamemnon's hair (and everyone's hair, really) drove me CRAZY.

Okay, I'd actually love to know what your issues were. *g* I saw a few things that I knew were off, and a couple things I just didn't care for, but I'm actually really interested to know what you thought of the costumes and hairstyles and such. If you have time, will you tell me?

I can't help it -- incidental details and clunky dialogue aside, I found so much to like in this movie, I'm all enamored and such. I'm starting to think I'm alone in that, but I actually thought the screenplay was genius in some ways. It made sense out of things in the Iliad that never made sense to me, and I thought he did a tremendous job of balancing several key contradictory aspects of Greek values and culture, and making them make sense together. Oh, well. *g*
