Achilles had a captive Trojan slave, Vriseis, whom he loved and respected. Agamemnon, the head of the greek army, took her from him. So Achilles was very angry and withdrew from the battle. King Priam just asked Achilles to give him Hector's body, after going into the greek camp disguised. Achilles was touched by the old father's grief, and not only did he return the body, but also gave him honors and had it washed and decorated.
By the way, don't watch Troy, it is full of inaccuracies. Read the Iliad, it is an amazing text, especially if you consider how old it is!
