This movie is in Greek in the pronunciation of 405 BC, just before the Greeks
standardized the alphabet, which is not the pronunciation I use, which is
Byzantine with vowel length distinctions. So I turned on the subtitles. At
6:47 someone speaking in Doric dialect says "τί κόθορνός τευ" ("τευ" appears
to correspond to Attic "σου").
