It has more historical inaccuracies than you can shake a stick at. If a team of monkeys were tasked to write a history of that period, and given nothing but a typewriter and a basket full of bananas, they could have probably written something more historically accurate than what the scriptwriters for Braveheart could accomplish.</p><p><br /></p><p>The dates in the movie are all wrong, the battles are way off, the reason behind the English occupation is completely twisted and distorted, the relationship between the Scottish nobles and the English nobles is completely different from what the movie shows, William Wallace was nothing like the character in the movie, he never had a wife what was killed by the English, and the practice of Prima Nocta is total BS.</p><p><br /></p><p>I could go on, but I think I&#039;ve ranted enough. I&#039;ve got to clean the foam from my lips and take something for my blood pressure.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie4" alt=":mad:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>So, do you still think you need to ask whether the real Edward I was just like the one portrayed in that abomination of a movie?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
