BUT something is still not logical; everyone knows that, historically, ancient Picts looked like this:

it does follow some narrative logic, since it closes the circle to the other Gibson movie. the one with the patriot....

Oh you mean "Brave Heart 2: Brave Harder"  ::)
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

"Mel Gibson's "Braveheart" won five Oscars for its tale of William Wallace, a 13th-century Scottish warrior. But how historically accurate is this Hollywood portrayal?"

I think that's an easy one.....IT'S NOT. It's a load of shite!!!

Without doubt.... Sometimes I wish that Hollywood would stay away from making historically based films.........

One the other hand I do enjoy some of them.... Braveheart was not one of them!!
