Resumo
In this paper we address the relationship between the treatment of the gods in the Homeric epic, specifically in the Iliad, and the treatment given to them by the cinema in films based on this poem, demonstrating that the cinema mostly tries, despite the weight that the gods have in the Trojan War, to eliminate any supernatural aspect of their films, and relegating the Homeric gods, physically present in one way or another in the epic, to the dialogues, sacrifices, omens, dreams, etc., in order to adapt their results to the prevailing rationalist vision of our time.
