A classic tale of love, bravery, betrayal, and passion.

Rating: 10/10 (11 May 1999)

Braveheart is a touching, passionate, and true story of a man named William Wallace(Braveheart)that leads Scotland to freedom. He is a Scottish boy whose family is murdered by Edward Longshanks, an unjust English king. At their funeral he meets a young girl named Murron, and in one of the most touching scenes in cinematic history, she gives him a flower which he keeps for his life. He then leaves to live with his uncle Arygyle. When he becomes an adult he returns to his birthplace and falls in love with Murron. When she is murdered by the British, he kills the British soldiers which took part in her murder, and vows to fight for Scotland's freedom. The movie has some of the most beautiful, and sometimes funny, battle scenes. It is a favorite of mine, and is worth watching just to hear William cry out "FREEDOMMMM."
