Elena di Troia è un film epico di genere peplum italo-statunitense del 1956 diretto da Robert Wise. Il principe Paride, figlio viziato del re di Troia Priamo, venendo a sapere della bellezza e della virtù della regina Elena di Sparta, moglie di Menelao, fratello del re di Micene Agamennone, decide di partire per la Grecia con la scusa di una semplice ambasciata, accompagnato dal fratello maggiore Ettore. Giunto di notte a Sparta, dopo un grande banchetto a cui Menelao non è presente, Paride rapisce Elena e la conduce nella sua patria, incurante delle terribili conseguenze che comporterà il suo gesto.
