Troy's (2004) centerpiece is the inevitable duel between Achilles and Hector, Troy's greatest warrior. Brad Pitt and Eric Bana performed the meticulously choreographed fight themselves without using any stunt doubles, rehearsing for months until every move became instinctive before filming.
In a 2004 interview, Pitt said about the accidental hits: "We made a deal with each other that we're just going to go for it. We decided that we would pay off for slight infractions 50 bucks and for major hits, if one of us clobbered the other, it would be 100 bucks."
Bana later showed a faint scar on the right side of his nose. "I've got a little Brad Pitt scar here," he said. "It's called a full-fledged backhand fist to the face. Luckily for us it was probably about 85 percent through that fight sequence because it does dull your confidence."
Asked how much he owed Bana after the six-day shoot, Pitt replied: "750."

Foreigners in South Africa have been accused of everything from being a drain on public services to stealing jobs (and even girlfriends!). Another SINISTER narrative that's gaining traction is that they're responsible for the country's DRUG problem - a notion that needs debunking, fast. - @shabzenshaba

NEW: The View’s Sunny Hostin seen using her privilege to try to get her son out of trouble for trespassing, tells police she is a “former federal prosecutor.”
“My name is Sunny Hostin… and I’m a former federal prosecutor,” Hostin said while telling police her son went to Harvard.
The host used her elitist privilege to try to get her son out of trouble after he was busted trespassing along Metro-North Railroad tracks in Westchester County.
“That’s my son. He’s a Harvard graduate, he doesn’t have a criminal record.”
24-year-old Gabriel Hostin claims he was jogging when he saw that the gate near the tracks was open.
He was hit with a trespass violation for what can be an arrestable offense, according to the New York Post.
Hostin has been known to shame others for their “white privilege.”
Remarkable.
@Shatta_Sariki High time we stopped pushing these stupid interviews that adds nothing to any convos. These people are dumb with dumb views being interviewed by dumb people who see nothing but click bait.

My favourite bit of this unhinged film is when the fella gets extra mad when his sunglasses get tangled in his hair. That shit will make a mess of the best of us. 😂
Oh look, Charlie’s DEI hire sliding into my comments. 😂
Let’s play semantics all you want. You were forced to resign. Period.
And since you’re suddenly demanding specificity: you hilariously lied through your teeth on the @ShawnRyanShow.
Just one of many. I’m keeping score and I bet @dhillonlaw recorded every word of it.
More proof of your malice and dishonesty.
