wrestling Peleus, the father of Achilles. That's apparently some fun story that we've kind of lost, but it's on a lot of pots, Greek pots, so that's lots of fun. I talk about that in my book about the Greek gods and goddesses. Pantheon, she said, giving in a little plug for her book.

This is a throwaway line in Apollonius. They stop on Samothrace and they're initiated into the Mysteries. Then they get to the famous clashing rocks because they're coming up to the Hellespont, which is a narrow channel of water that goes from the Aegean, I believe, into the Propontis and then the Black Sea.

And those are the famous clashing rocks, which Pindar describes as being alive, which is really good. And they're often confused with the rocks, the other rocks with Scylla and Charybdis down by Sicily. But these are clashing rocks. And again, that's done really in the film. It's huge fun. A giant triton comes up and holds the rocks apart. And there are other methods. They...

In Apollonius, they let a dove through and the dove goes through and the rocks clash and just get its tail feathers. And then as they're opening again, they quickly row and get through that way. And again, they get their tail feathers kind of clipped off the very back of the ship. What's that called? The sternum. They get that clipped off. So that's the next fun bit. It's the clashing rocks.
