Il tiranno di Siracusa (sh. Sirakuškji tiranin), također poznat i kao Damon and Pythias (sh. Damon i Pitija) je američko-italijanski historijski (peplum) film snimljen 1962. godine u režiji Curtisa Bernhardta i Alberta Cardonea. Predstavlja adaptaciju starogrčke legende o Damonu i Pitiji. Protagonisti, koje tumače Guy Williams i Don Burnett, su Damon i Pitija, dvojica najboljih prijatelja koji na prijelazu iz 5. u 4. vijek pne. žive u Sirakuzi pod vlašću tiranina Dionizija I (čiji lik tumači Arnoldo Foà). Radnja prikazuje kako Dionizije Pitiju osudi na smrt, ali potom pristaje pustiti Damona da prije izvršenja ode u rodnu Atenu srediti porodične poslove, a pri čemu Damon ostaje kao talac životom jamčiti za povratak svog prijatelja.
