*watched for a class.
Crazy to see this interpretation of the first murder trial (according to ancient Greek tradition). It is wild to think that this would be close to how it would have been portrayed back then. The rhythmic chanting of the greek chorus for each play was stunning and a work of pure mastery.
IMO, Clytemnestra did no wrong except for murdering Cassandra (tragic, innocent Cassandra). That trial was something angering from a modern perspective, but interesting to see how the Ancient Greeks viewed bond vs blood, parenthood, and justice.
