@@ryanodonovan9497 William Wallace was 'drawn and quartered'

@LickTheShaft 7 месяцев назад

Some of it is accurate, but not a lot. The battle of Striling is actually The battle of Stirling bridge, as the Scots used a tactical advantage as a choke point for English soldiers that had to cross the bridge, not just a massive field they fought in. Also, the princess was only 9 years old at the time Wallace was executed, just for a couple of examples. That being said this movie's still in my all-time top 10 favorites, and has been since I watched it in theaters.

@lukasismael430 Год назад

William Wallace was an actual historical figure who led the Scots along with Andrew Moray in the battle at Stirling Bridge and Falkirk where he was defeated and brought to King Edward's castle in Glasgow and was tortured and killed, just like in the movie. There is a statue of him at Edinburgh Castle and at the Scottish National Portrait Gallery in Edinburgh, and another one in Aberdeen. So yes, Wallace was a famous figure in Scotland.

@jonathanross149 Год назад

The Bruce has his own story.

@jmadrigal2833 Год назад

I once had a biography of Robert Bruce written by a Scottish historian. If I remember correctly, according to the autobiography, Wallace and Bruce never met. At the time of the movie setting, the Bruce was isolated on his ancestral lands, struggling to save his House, which, at this time was threatened by the Lord's on the Scottish council, scheming for downfall of the House. His only ally, ironically, Edward, under whom he had squired and with whom he went on Crusade to the Holy Land. Also, the Bruce, along with Edward, and another knight in Edward's service (can't recall his name) were considered the TOP 3 Knights of Christendom, as they were tried in battle and the winners of all the major tournaments they competed in. Like William and the Black knight in "A Knight's Tale". So, if they had ever fought, Bruce would have crushed Wallace. (Who, according to accounts, looked more like Hamish, but, with black hair). It was through the Bruce's own machinations that he became the foremost Lord of Scotland and finally lead Scotland against Edward. The battle at the end, where the Bruce charges as if spur of the moment, he ACTUALLY planned for the location and the battle, and went there with the intent to engage the English in battle, NOT to negotiate.

@jmadrigal2833 Год назад

After Wallace's death, the Bruce finally secured the position of his House and began bringing Scotland and the rival Lords, one by one, under his control. He then began fighting the English as they portray Wallace doing. Sometimes he won, sometimes not. In one engagement he ordered a retreat. His force had to retreat across a brook/small river in a forest. To allow his men to escape he held the ford by himself against at least 12 pursuing English knights, telling them as they came up. The battle at the end, where he leads the Scots, was, again, not on a whim, but because by that time he was so successful in driving English forces out of Scotland that the new English King finally assembled another grand army to invade Scotland again. Bruce gathered the Scottish Lord's and the army and strategized where to meet the English and how they would attack. When the armies met at Bannockburn, Bruce rode out by himself to get a final look at the English. An English knight, Sir Charles de Bohun, I believe, who probably knew Bruce from tourneys and service in the English army, recognized him and with lance at rest charged him in single combat. Rather than turn back to the Scottish line Bruce charged, armed with a battle-axe. He deflected Bohun's lance and, as they passed, buried the axe in Bohun's helmet and head. He then rode back leaving Bohun on the field. It's said he was nonchalant and unmoved about the encounter.

@jmadrigal2833 Год назад

Also, as the Bruce was a Great Knight and victor of tournaments, he had won many prizes and was actually outfitted in the most modern (for the time) and state of the art armor and weaponry. Armor like Edward's or any rich English knight, not the scrubby, second-hand looking armor they show him in at the end.

"Historians will say I am a liar, but history is written by those who have hanged heroes." I love people who complain about the historical inaccuracy of this movie and forget the opening line. The only reason we KNOW it's historically inaccurate is because there are people involved in the story that had money and titles and were thus "worthy" of having a detailed record of their lives kept. We know William Wallace existed, and we know the broad strokes in terms of what he accomplished and inspired, but only because rich people took note. Historically, poor people have to suffer a lot of injustice before that happens, and I think this movie is a great reminder of that.

@stonecoldku4161 Год назад

Two war movies that are very historically accurate with very few liberties taken are both set during the American Civil War. "Glory" and "Gettysburg." I highly recommend both. "Gettysburg" centers around the battle of "Gettysburg" the bloodiest battle to take place on American soil and perhaps the most important battle of the American Civil War. The movie was originally supposed to be a made for TV miniseries, so it isn't as graphic as other war movies, and it is also long at just 4 and half hours. Glory centers around the 54th Massachusetts regiment. The first military unit consisting of Black soldiers to be raised in the North during the Civil War. Prior to 1863, no concerted effort was made to recruit Black troops as Union soldiers. The movie features tremendous performances by the entire cast, which included Morgan Freeman and Denzel Washington who would win the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor.

Look up the detailed description of the punishment referred to as being "drawn & quartered". The "drawing" refers to being hanged by the neck until almost becoming unconscious. Then lowered onto a table where they removed the person's genitals which were placed in a container & burned in front of the person. This was followed by being disemboweled with the large curved blade that was set out on the table in the movie. Next the axman removed the head before the arms & legs were tied to 4 horses & torn into quarters or hacked into quarters with an ax. The head & quarters were then taken to various parts of the kingdom & displayed on bridges & other structures in major cities. This punishment was reserved for anyone who was a traitor or went against the Church. There were some executions that someone might even think were worse, i.e., for attempting to poison the King, etc.

I was allowed to watch rated R movies when I was 7 (with his approval, to keep me away from anything too disturbing or sexual). My dad believes that if you try to shield kids from certain things, like violence and adult language, you just make it more attractive because it's "forbidden." So, it's better to normalize it as a part of life (within reason, of course). Part of me, I have to admit, also thinks that he just didn't want to watch "kids movies" all the time and letting me watch adult oriented movies made it more enjoyable for him when we watched stuff together.

If you ever come to Scotland you should visit the wallace monument in stirling that holds the sword that Wallace fought with as well as a part of his body. When William Wallace was executed he was hung, drawn and quartered. Which means he was hanged the opposite way, drawn means stretched and disemboiled (quartered) then beheaded. The english though that would frighten the scot’s but it actually had the opposite effect. in 1314 at Bannockburn the two country’s fought again and Scotland won. Take care 😘🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇸

William Wallace received the death of a traitor, which was probably the most horrifying punishment that could then be inflicted on a human in Great Britain. He was hanged, drawn and quartered - - hanged, but cut down while still alive - - his abdomen was then cut open and his intestines pulled out, his private parts cut off and burned in a brazier next to his head. He was then beheaded and his body cut into four pieces. The head was parboiled and coated in tar, and stuck on a pike on London Bridge. The four quarters of his body were sent to different parts of Scotland where they were displayed as a warning.

@jarsky Год назад

So Wallace raised the armies to fight for Scottish independance. Robert the Bruce fought with Wallace in the Battle of Stirling which was their greatest victory. He was then betrayed (as in this movie); at which he was drawn and quartered. The final scene is Robert the Bruces vs King Edward in The Battle of Bannockburn. The main character has to die, since its all (loosely) based on historical events 😂 William Wallaces long sword is still on display in Stirling. I was thankful to get to visit my family in Scotland; and to go and see the sword on display when I was younger 😊

Historically William Wallace was at least 6’0 ft. Mel Gibson is short, that’s why during the first war scene they make a comment about the height.

The only DVD commentary that I have ever enjoyed for any movie was Mel Gibson's commentary for this one. This movie was fascinating to make. He got sued by animal rights groups all over the world because they thought that he was actually killing horses when they ran into the spears. This movie spawned the invention of an animatronic that is still used to this day because it is so realistic. My favorite commentary Insight though is about the purple flower. Mel said he would have loved to use Scottish thistle, which is what that is, But he was forced to use artificial Scottish thistle. Because if that little girl had tried to pick real Scottish Thistle they would have had to give her surgery to repair the tendons in her fingers that got severed. It is apparently some of the sharpest and toughest thorns in all of the plant Kingdom.

The fact that it's not historically accurate is irrelevant. People get hung up on that fact, stupidly so. It's a romantic look at the character and the events surrounding it. It's supposed to tell a good story, produce certain feelings, and it does that very well. It's not a documentary, nor does it claim to be an historically accurate account. The score for this film is exceptional.

Hacksaw Ridge.. cant wait! Best war movie i have seen in so many years and stellar performance by Andrew Garfield! Abs Braveheart is a classic. One of the first movies to make me cry. I was a toughnut teenager so it meant something back then :D

Weird relationship us and the Scotts have now, We've fought many wars together now, against each other and more together. Want a fun night? Get an Englishman, a Irishman, a Scottsman, a Welshman and an ozzie in a bar... Tell them their tab is covered and give them a game, pool, snooker, darts doesn't matter... They'll either kill each other or... Willingly die for each other by the time the night is over... Hilariously the ozzie even though he doesn't live on the same continent as the rest would probably wade in too. There would be... What everyone considers horrific racism... "jock", "sheep shagger", "upside down" jokes, much piss taking about accent.... However, give us a common enemy... One we all hate and we'll put all of that aside and smash whatever we need to to get the job done.

Great movie. A prime example of not letting the truth get in the way of a good story. For instance, the woad (blue paint) was last used about 1000 years before this, the kilts didn't come about for another 400 years or so, and the Princess was all of 7 years old at this time...

@williambranch4283 Год назад

William fought for the previous Scottish king, John Balliol. After Wallace was executed, Robert the Bruce turned on King Edward, assassinating the last Balliol supporter, John Comyn the Red, in a church. That is the Scottish noble that betrayed Wallace at Falkirk in the movie. Robert the Bruce was excommunicated for desecrating that church. Robert the Bruce rose up in revolt ... achieving independence 8 years of total war. If you have Scottish ancestors, you have ancestors who fought in these wars (250 years before Highlander).

At risk of becoming political... "I am so mad at those two... leaders... who were just paid off" They were Scottish noblemen. "Noblemen", regardless of nationality, were a separate class from their commoners, and had more in common with noblemen of other nations than with their own people. They often intermarried, often to forge alliances. For example, Henry V married Catherine of France; Louis XVI of France married Marie Antoinette of Austria. George III, the king against whom America rebelled, was the first of that name who spoke English natively; George I and II spoke German. Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany was the great-grandson of Queen Victoria of England. The aristocracy of Europe had loyalties, alliances, grudges and enmities separate from the people of their nations. This is why in the body of the Constitution of the United States of America, we had Article II, section 1, clause 5; only a _natural_ born citizen may become President, commander in chief... using the traditional European definition of "natural" and Vattel's definition of "natural born"; a citizen born of citizen parents. And he must have resided in the US 17 years. They did everything they could to ensure that the chief executive was wholly and completely loyal to the United States, with no ties or allegiance to any other nation or group of people. That, of course, got tossed in the toilet January 6th, 2009. ("natural" historically meant you weren't a b-st-rd. Your father was the man married to your mother. Very important for inheritance, especially the inheritance of crowns).

@jerryanoia2334 Год назад

One thing the movie was historically accurate about was the absolute brutality of the English against the Scots and the Irish. If you get squemish about how men treated women a thousand years ago then you don't see reality. Life wasn't easy, life is brutal.

For another excellent fictionalized-from-real-people-and-events movie starring Mel Gibson, I highly recommend The Patriot. Very similar themes, but this time in the American Revolutionary War.

Mel Gibson won the Oscars for Best Picture and Best Director for the film, and it is easy to see why. Screenwriter Randall Wallace would go on to write more films as well as direct. His films include: - The Man In the Iron Mask with Leonardo DiCaprio, Jeremy Irons, John Malkovich, Gerard Depardieu, and Gabriel Byrne. Based on the novel by Dumas, which is a "sequel" story of The Three Musketeers. The older actors are the immortal Musketeers...Malkovich (Athos), Depardieu (Porthos), Irons (Aramis) and Byrne (D'Artagnan), - We Were Soldiers with Mel Gibson, Sam Elliott, Barry Pepper, and Greg Kinnear. Based on the book We Were Soldiers Once and Young by Hal Moore and Joe Galloway. Gibson plays Moore and Pepper plays Galloway. About the first major battle of Vietnam and the battle fought on the home front. - Pearl Harbor with Ben Affleck, Kate Beckinsale, Jennifer Garner, Alec Baldwin, Jon Voight, and Cuba Gooding, Jr. Directed by Michael Bay, Not the greatest, but the recreation of the attack on Pearl Harbor is amazing! Voight as FDR is also impressive. Wallace wrote it only. - Secretariat with Diane Lane and John Malkovich about the famous thoroughbred racehorse Secretariat. Wallace directed the film only. As much as I love Brenden Gleeson (Professor Mad-Eye Moody) as Hamish in this, my favorite character is Stephen played by David O'Hara. I have used the "The Lord says He can get me out of this, but He's pretty sure you're f------d!" line numerous times in real life. O'Hara also was in Harry Potter in 'The Deathly Hallows' as Albert Runcorn and as Harry Potter (thanks to the polyjuice potion).

@donotevenbegintocare Год назад

The good about this movie: Mel Gibson knows story structure and takes advantage of that perfectly The bad: There is a place called Scotland. That's about where the historical accuracy ends with this movie (and every other Mel Gibson "historical" movie)

@jmadrigal2833 Год назад

Fun Fact ( if I remember my English history correctly ^_^) the French Princess/English Queen, played by Sophie Marceau became a strong Queen and after her husband, the King's death, ruled as Queen Regent til her son came of age. She never married but had a love affair with the Lord Marshal of England (can't remember his name) and when her son, Edward III, came of age, he had to execute the Marshal, remove his mother from rule, and imprison her so he could become King.

@jmadrigal2833 Год назад

A film of hers I recommend, though far from an Oscar-worthy one, is in French "La Fille de Dartagnan" (I believe) "Dartagnan's Daughter" and in its U.S. release "Return of the Musketeers". It's a sequel to the "Three Musketeers" films and is the story of the heroes in their retirement and, of course, Dartagnan's daughter, played by Sophie Marceau.

When horses were used in battle, killin a horse was like shootin the tires on a vehicle today. A soldier on a horse was faster, could hit harder and be not as easily stopped or killed. So if you take out the horse, you put the rider on more equal ground with you by takin out his advantage. Same as if you shoot the tires on a vehicle, that vehicle can no longer be used to escape or ram people or other vehicles, leavin the driver to proceed on foot. Equal ground, equal terms. The horse was also a threat of itself, although it would be more likely that a horse trained enough to ride would, without a master, run away from the noise of battle. Either way, best to take out the horses. Enjoyed the reaction as always, Ma'am.

You really do excellent reactions to your many movies. I feel I should like to suggest two more for you to watch one, is a rather oldie called Random Harvest w/Ronald Coleman and Greer Garson. It's a tear-jerking romance. The second is more modern, called Steel Magnolias w/Sally Field & Julia Roberts. I truly believe you will enjoy both movies! Thanks again for sharing.
