What are the differences between the movie troy and the iliad?consider these things: agamemnon's death meneleus death paris escape helens...

One of the major differences between the movie and Homer's
epic poem is that the Iliad ends with the funeral of Hector,
whereas the movie goes on to portray other events (e.g., the wooden horse) that do not
occur in the Iliad.

Likewise, by the
end of the movie, Menelaus, Achilles, and Priam are all killed, whereas all three are
alive at the conclusion of the
Iliad.

A final major plot difference
that is Paris and Helen escape the fall of Troy in the movie, whereas no such thing
happens in the Iliad or anywhere else in the mythical tradition. In
Homer's Odyssey, Menelaus and Helen are back in Sparta and living
as husband and wife. The mythic tradition also has Paris being killed by Philoctetes
during the tenth year of the war and before the episode of the wooden
horse.

One quick, non-plot point to mention: the role of
the gods in the movie is significantly decreased.

Countless
other differences between the movie and Homer's epic poem exist, but those are probably
numerous enough to fill an epic-sized tome.
