(I commented on this video on YouTube - An excellent video about a movie I enjoyed a great deal. However, such things as the portrayal of Wallace and jus primae noctis, I believe arise from Gibson's hatred of the English and his desire to paint them as black as possible. - JW)
Braveheart is one of my favorite movies. But yeah, it's pretty historically inaccurate. Let's take a look at some of the historical issues.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Leo XIV as the Vicar of Christ, the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
