4. Beowulf – A Hero Against the Legendary Grendel
Trending
In Robert Zemeckis's Beowulf (2007), the traditional Anglo-Saxon legend comes to life in a new dimension with modern animation. Here, the great warrior, Beowulf, is ready to battle the creature Grendel who is terrorizing a kingdom. In this myth, the film brings together the story of Grendel with a layer of moral complexity through the battle of Beowulf with Grendel's mother, thereby illustrating how myths are inclined to exaggerate human weaknesses. This makes the film stand as an unconventional version of the man vs. myth theme: grand mythopoeia fused with humanity and imperfection.
