L'ira di Achille, internationally released as The Fury of Achilles, is a 1962 Italian historical drama set in the ninth year of the Trojan War and is based primarily on Homer's Iliad.

The film was directed by Marino Girolami and starred Gordon Mitchell as Achilles.

Greeks set sail to Troy, since the prince Paris has abducted the Spartan Princess Helen, wife of Menelaus.

In the fighting stands the invincible hero Achilles, who leads his Myrmidons to assault.

The Trojans in fact have the opportunity to drive out the Greeks at sea and so Patroclus, Achilles' best friend wears, without the knowledge of Achilles, his divine armor to instill courage in the Myrmidon soldiers.
