Braveheart description Mel Gibson's Oscar-winning 1995 Braveheart is an impassioned epic about William Wallace, the 13th-century Scottish leader of a popular revolt against England's tyrannical Edward I (Patrick McGoohan). Gibson cannily plays Wallace as a man trying to stay out of history's way until events force his hand, an attribute that instantly resonates with several of the actor's best-known roles, especially Mad Max. The subsequent camaraderie and courage Wallace shares in the field with fellow warriors is pure enough and inspiring enough to bring envy to a viewer, and even as things go wrong for Wallace in the second half, the film does not easily cave in to a somber tone. One of the most impressive elements is the originality with which Gibson films battle scenes, featuring hundreds of extras wielding medieval weapons. After Eisenstein's Alexander Nevsky, Orson Welles's Chimes at Midnight, and even Kenneth Branagh's Henry V, you might think there is little new that could be done in creating scenes of ancient combat; yet Gibson does it. --Tom Keogh |

| ♥♥♥♥♥ | the tree of liberty is watered with blood of patriots and tyrants |
| How can people still be swayed by the empty "give peace a chance" mantra after seeing war brought down to the very basics like this? For those who value their life more than their freedom, peace is possible. Of course slavery is the only possible result. Thank God for those in our past who put our freedom before their own lives. And thank God for rough men who still stand ready to do violence on our behalf. | |
