In 1995 Mel Gibson made Braveheart and Ron Howard made Apollo 13. Afterward, Howard began directing his next film, "Ransom", with Gibson cast in the lead role. They were on the Ransom set together when they learned that both of their respective films had been nominated for the Best Picture Oscar. However, Gibson also scored a Best Director nomination for his film whereas Howard did not. In response to this Gibson jokingly turned to Howard and said "I guess this means I don't need to listen to your directions now".

Do you know WHY the thistle is the national flower of Scotland? Legend has it when the Vikings (my ancestors) invaded, they managed to catch the Scottish army unprepared, but as they were sneaking up on them in the dark, one of the Vikings stepped on a thistle and let out a loud curse, alerting the Scottish, and letting them barley win the ensuing battle. Historians have speculated, that if the Scottish had lost the battle, the whole of Scotland could have been lost to the Vikings, resulting in centuries of occupation. So that is the story of how a small thistle saved all of Scotland.

However, this new world is nothing but an imitation of humankind’s motherland, the Earth. Why were the colonies created in the first place? I hear the main purpose was technological development to improve the lives of humankind on Earth. Did humankind start asking for too much from this fake world? The self-sustained way of life is more stable than on Earth especially since it lacks the risk of natural disasters. It appears that this unlimited growth was guaranteeing the eternal existence of humankind. Perhaps there was an age where people dreamed of the possibilities in outer space, where they could start from scratch. However, it’s unthinkable that the colonies, or that humankind, will ever forget the Earth. What did technological development in the colonies bring to the Earth? The kind of technology the Earth wants most: military power. Destruction is a human nature that can never be gotten rid of. And now, the colonies are developing a militaristic disposition. The colonies cannot forget the Earth. The Earth has great beauty. The animals known as humans have acquired such strength that they even think of controlling this planet for themselves. From the point of view of an planet’s life, the life of a living thing lasts no more than an instant. But in the end, it is only themselves that humans can think of. Nothing changes. The time spent by humans in outer space has been a complete waste. The ideal is just a dream. This false pacifism. This false living space. Outer space is a nothing more than a breeding ground for even more battles in the future. Wars throughout history have claimed many lives. Although humankind has never been able to forget the sorrow that has been caused by the wars, they have not stopped fighting. The blood and tears they shed in battle are merely ceremonial. One can’t speak of history without referring to the wars in each era as important events. I’m sure the pale pep talks of fighting for peace have been repeated numerous times in the past. The colonies say they need armaments to maintain peace. It’s no different from on Earth. The colonies think they’ve joined the big boys. I guess they believed the bloodshed would lead to higher morale… So why do people fight anyway? Perhaps the meaning of human existence lies within their will to fight.

It's funny you commented on the thick accents... if you heard real Scottish people talk you would have NO idea what they're saying most of the time. The Glaswegian accent especially. My old roommate had a cousin visit us from there and I was kind of the only one who knew what he was saying so I had to interpret for everyone lol. As to the history: England and Scotland have had LOTS of border wars over the centuries. Edward I, called The Longshanks for his unusual height (6'2") and the Hammer of the Scots. He was a Crusader in the Ninth Crusade before becoming King, and was a fairly militarily focused ruler. He suppressed two rebellions in Wales, and after the second one built a bunch of castles there to control the countryside. Edward was invited to arbitrate a succession dispute in Scotland after the king died with no heir, he claimed 'suzerainty' over the country (Suzerainty means that in this case, England, the suzerain, would control all of Scotland's foreign affairs and tribute to England, while allowing them to govern themselves internally). He also established Parliament as a permanent institution in the government of England, and reformed many laws via statutes. Of note: Prima Noctae was not a real thing he did. :P He was also quite brutal in his actions against the Welsh and Scots, hence his Hammer epithet. He claimed he had the right to rule Scotland as their royal line was ended, and the Scots did not want to be ruled in ANY way by an English king, thus the first of many wars. It wasn't until the Battle of Bannockburn that this one ended. The Pope was also very much opposed to Edward's aggression, ordering him to cease his attacks and begin diplomacy with Scotland, but he ignored these demands. Edward II MIGHT have had a homosexual relationship with one of his barons, Piers Gaveston, but it was never confirmed, all that was known is that Gaveston was one of his favored barons, and the others in court grew discontent over this, causing several internal conflicts within England over the matter until Gaveston was finally seized and executed by these barons. He wasn't defenestrated by Edward I like in the film :P Isabella was only 12 when she was wed to Edward II in an attempt to quell the ongoing disputes with France (which took his attention away from the battles to the north and caused him to lose ground), so she would never have met Wallace, let alone slept with him :P Later on she traveled to France and possibly began an affair with Roger Mortimer, who agreed to help her oust her husband who was becoming more and more useless as King in favor of her young son, Edward III. She accomplished this with a small mercenary army and locked Edward II up, some saying that she later secretly arranged to have him killed. She declared herself regent for her son, and successfully brought an end to the wars with Scotland before Edward III took up his birthright. It wasn't until the 1560's when James Stuart was born to Henry Stuart and Mary, Queen of Scots that the thrones of England and Scotland would be united when he ascended to become King James VI of Scotland and King James I of England in 1603.

Mel Gibson attended the screening and it was interesting that he did not come along with a huge, fawning entourage, and that he was willing to show the film to a large group of ordinary people. He was proud of the film and stayed to answer questions from the appreciative audience. No one knew then what a big hit the movie would be.

Mel Gibson is a severely underrated director. Most still dislike him and some do not like his style of directing. Mostly because he dares to go where other directors would choose not to and that is evident in Passion and Apocalypto. I don’t judge people for what they believe in but some of his drunk rant was so true and they know this from working on movie studio sets and in Beverly Hills and Hollywood. That said he is an amazing director and he puts his heart and soul into his work which as a fan of films I appreciate

I was about 12 years old when I saw this film. I was moved to tears. Braveheart, though historically inaccurate, hits that warrior poet in all of us. It inspired me to further research the Scottish wars of Independence. The movie holds up even now and remains a classic.

Shocked that you two had never seen Braveheart before. As a proud Scotsman, it's definitely an all-time great. I think the reason so many of us Scots felt a tad frustrated was that the inaccuracies weren't so much the battles fought, lost and won, it was how they were fought, lost and won. For example, the Battle of Stirling was fought on a bridge. You can actually visit the Wallace Monument in Stirling today that overlooks where the battlefield was and tells you all about the bridge. Likewise, Robert the Bruce had never met William Wallace, so he could never have been a traitor to him, and at the time of Wallace being alive, that "princess" was merely just a wean at the time. I get it though, it's the romanticised Hollywood version, which I'm sure there would've been genuine romantic tales of that period. Nonetheless, it's an all-time classic.

But Robert Bruce is different because he rose above the bad influence of his father to walk a better path in the end.

"You're heart is free. Have the courage to follow it." One of many outstanding lines given by outstanding actors in an outstanding movie that stuck with me for almost 30 years.

This is one of my favorite reaction videos I've seen of this movie, and I've watched alot of them. I love how the girls get emotionally invested into another culture. As far as the historical accuracy of this movie, it is based on a poem that was written about William Wallace. Wallace was a commoner that inspired the people and ultimately supported and motivated Robert the Bruce to liberate Scotland. The legend was so powerful that men wondered what would inspire Wallace to fight so hard. The poem this is based on by a poet only known as "Blind Harry" thought love would be the greatest motivator. We don't know if it was true or not, but it is still a great work of fiction. Braveheart never boasts of being historically true, people being mad about that is like being mad about the story of Hercules, Romeo and Juliet or King Arthur, cause they arent historically accurate.

Yes, it doesn't matter at all. You just watch it for its entertainment value, not for education. It is an epic story with great actors. I don't even know how often I have watched it, probably close to 50 times, seriously.

"Longshanks" had a traumatic past of his own that coloured his life. His father, Henry III, was a cruel heavy handed failure of a king who eventually faced a rebellion led by his friend Simon de Montfort and lost heavily at the battle of Lewes. While Simon created the first representative parliament, of sorts, young Edward was imprisoned by the rebels until he escaped, raised an army and fought Simon de Montfort at the battle of Evesham and rescued his father. He was a violent, aggressive unforgiving man but also a product of the times he was raised by. Also, most of the lords involved had as many lands in England as they did in Scotland, they owed fealty to Edward more than they did to the crown of Scotland, so it was easy to persuade them to take the English side when things were tough. Robert the Bruce was exactly the same, his name was actually Robert de Brus and he was as Norman as the English lords. This was the Scottish Norman lords fighting the English Norman lords, and almost impossible to discern the difference because they were all occupiers of the lands they ruled.

Here's a few points on the real William Wallace and the real Robert the Bruce. As amazing as William Wallace is portrayed by Mel Gibson in this film, he was even more amazing in real life. William Wallace's Uncle, portrayed by Brian Cox at the beginning of this film was the Abbot at the monastery in Cambeskenneth Scotland. Monasteries were the only real location of Education during the 12th and 13th centuries in Europe. William Wallace was taken in by his uncle and learned French, Latin and Military Concepts. He did travel on pilgrimages to Paris and Rome. He was an absolutely brilliant military tactician. His most famous battle was at Sterling, his sword, a claymore, is displayed at a museum near where the battle occurred. Not only did he use long Spears to take out the Cavalry, he also use the Guerrilla unit to go underwater and take out a bridge so reinforcements could not advance. The final scene is about as accurate as possible, William Wallace was the first person ever known to be drawn and quartered. He was disemboweled and his intestines were pulled out while he was alive, his arms, legs and head we're all severed and delivered to the four corners of the Island. His head was placed on a spike on London Bridge. It wasn't intentionally brutal execution, because they were all terrified of him. He was there Boogeyman, William Wallace was their equivalent to John Wick. The romance between him and the princess never happened. The reason I know this is because during that time she was 4 years old. And finally, Robert the Bruce was no coward. He was no traitor, he is the one who actually fought for and gained Scottish independence. There's a good movie about Robert the Bruce with Chris Pine playing the lead role, it starts out immediately after William Wallace's execution and shows one of his arms on display. I got a lot of grief from Friends when I took my children to see this movie. Yes, it is a violent movie, but the world is a violent place. I am a historian. I have two degrees in history. I did a paper on William Wallace my sophomore year, that's why I remember all of those details. My kids were three and five when I took them to see this, so I understand the apprehension about my children watching this film. About 5 years ago it was research shown in a local theater here in Phoenix my son and I got to go and watch it in the theater again. While there are historical inaccuracies in the film, it is still an amazing movie about fighting for freedom. And yes, it is one of the great love stories of all time. When they murdered his wife it set him on a path of terrorizing the English occupation forces in Scotland. I'm glad you enjoyed the film, this is one of my 10 favorite movies of all time. As a historian I don't feel like a movie has to be perfectly accurate, if it inspires people to read or research the real history, then any poetic license Hollywood takes to make it more marketable is fine with me. Just like 300, movies like this inspired a whole new generation to care about history. That's enough for me.

Wallace drops it when he finally dies, and Bruce was there to pick it up. Bruce was there watching Wallace's torture, it's what motivated him to continue the fight.

The king on netflix is good too

A lot of the scenes were actually filmed in Ireland mainly because they got tax breaks and the defence forces of Ireland were given time off toact as extras in the crowd scenes. You can still visit some of the sets

The 1st time I watched this I rewound the tape and watched it again. I've lost count of how many times I've seen it now. I've always said this is my most favourite film, even though I'm an englishman 🤦🏼‍♂️ The reactions during the violent scenes 👌🏻🤣
