In today's NY Times crossword, the answer to 1 Across was 'HARPY', and my first thought was
Jason and the Argonauts .
Legendary, iconic; in this case, totally appropriate adjectives.

Viewing "Jason and the Argonauts" as a child inspired me to start reading up on Greek and Roman mythology. Which helped to open up a whole world of great literature.
