Mel Gibson: William Wallace
Braveheart is a story blessed with many endearing nobilities and notions, but more than anything a dual sense of honour and liberty: on the one side William Wallace, a lege... read more

Enthralling medieval blockbuster entertainment
“A rousing and inspirational medieval epic that continues to stand the test of time, Braveheart is an account of Scottish freedom fighter Sir William Wallace (Mel Gibson), who led a revolt against Scotland's tyrannical English rulers from 1297 to 1305 during the country's First War of Independence. As a child, Wallace witnessed King Longshanks (Patrick McGoohan) conquer Scotland, and Wallace's father and brother were killed when they tried to resist the English. After years of living with his uncle (Brian Cox), Wallace returns home and secretly marries his childhood friend, Murron (Catherine McCormack). However, Longshanks grants jus primae noctis to English noblemen, allowing them to force sexual relations with any woman they choose. When English soldiers murder Murron for daring to defy a” read more
Pop Culture Phenomenon Films: 90’s (1929 movies items)" When his secret bride is executed for assaulting an English soldier whom tried to rape her, a commoner begins a revolt and leads Scottish warriors against the cruel English tyrant who rules Scotland with an iron-fist.

It's a Masterpiece. Best Movie of All Time
“Braveheart is the best movie ever made in history, an absolute sculpted work of art that depicts every emotion of human existence, from suffering, to courage to love, in front of the background of political astuteness and socio-hierarchal analysis.
Telling the quasi-true story of one man's conviction and courage to exact vengeance for the killing of his first wife and father at the hands of the ruthless King Edward the II of England, who in turn inspires his small province of Scotland to rebel and go to war in a real fight for freedom and independence, Braveheart is a stunning depiction of the capacity of the human spirit to overcome the odds, defy tyranny, and achieve justice, respect, and dignity against oppression.
