More Movie Notes

  1. Pericles treated Aspsia, the prostitute like she was a person
  2. Theatre was a huge part of Ancient Greece and Athens, audiences often booed and hissed if it was bad or cried if it was good
  3. Oedipus was a king who married his own mother and had sex with her, but he didn't know it was her. He later clawed his eyes out so he didn't have to see the people look at him with disgust
  4. Athens 431 B.C. Pericles showed the Athenians his plans to start a war with Sparta, which was a huge mistake
  5. Athens could defeat Sparta on land because Sparta's strength was in their navy
