What Myth did you like the most?
I really enjoyed watching the first myth, the one of Daedalus. I thought Icarus' cousin was so able to create new things, and that was the reason that made me like this story also the part where they escape with bird's feathers. But the fact that Icarus died because the wax melted, was very sad to me. But I still like it a lot; well at least more that the second myth.
Was it the characters or the story that you enjoyed?
I actually like both. The storyteller was a great character of the movie because he made you understand better what was happening. Icarus' cousin was very creative and always wanting to help, but on the other hand, Daedalus' son wasn't so good with his hands and he couldn't concentrate which was one of the reasons he died; because he couldn't listen to his dad when he told him not to go so high up the sky.
In thinking on the themes of these stories, what do they have in common?
They both describe the sadness of lossing someone you love. They all show how people get courage to accomplish something. And it also teaches people the importance of , because at some point Deadalus preferred his nephew instead of his son, and Theseus left the woma she loved in an island.
In conclusion, these 2 movies where very helpful to me, as they helped me understand better how important mythology was for the Greeks.
