  I WAS AN EXTRA IN TROY! One of the highlights of my life at the time (i was 21). I was vacatioing in Cabo, and LOOOOONG story short, i bs'd my way into being an extra. Several days living in a hotel and 5am bus rides to set. The wall was amazing, like a travel through time. The inside, trucks, trailers, a helicopter, the interior wall made from exposed foam and scafolding. Then walk through the gates and on the outside, portal to an anceint world - horses, battle armor. I made several bulgarian friends, and snuck a small kodac camera in my underwear. I ran in the battle where the sides collide - foam tip spears, woodem swords, rubber armor, a large camera zooms by from crane to crane - later 200 or 300 soldiers added by computer - maybe 50 of us actually there. I stood on the wall shooting imaginary arrows. I watched Brad and Bana practice their fight in the empty field. Was considered to be standin for Bloom for about 10 min LOL. Saw all the actors. At the end, I couldnt keep any of the vouchers worth maybe several hundred dollars - i gave them all to a kid selling chiclets. Some of the best days of my 20s. When the film came out my family and friends threw a small premeire party. Such a great film and an experience that i carry with me forever.

  This video makes me realise how far back 2004 is now.

  I think the Achilles-Hector fight was one of the best choreographed fights on film of all time.

  He is so articulate, humble, and interestingly sexy in this interview. I love his enthusiasm for art and life

  Now that’s an interview, these shows nowadays where everyone tries to be funny are crap, no wonder actors at Brad’s level don’t go there

  Troy was a great movie, Brad Pitt played the role of Achilles in a believable fashion.

  Great performance of Achilles from tyrant to sensitiveness at the end. Leadership at his  best acting beyond the king of kings. Love this interview. Fibonacci numeric sequence has a lot on his face and beauty.
