Robert the Bruce was the Real Life 'Braveheart'

Robert the Bruce was the Real Life 'Braveheart'

We all know that historical movies can be inaccurate. Sometimes, they get historical figures completely wrong for example, Pocahontas was a child when she met John Smith, and so was Isabella of France when William Wallace was alive. Still, most historical movies don t make executions less gory as was the case with William Wallace's execution in Braveheart, and they don t make real historical figures less intense. But Braveheart is guilty of both. Just look at how Braveheart portrays Robert the Bruce, King of Scotland. In real life, Robert the Bruce and William Wallace were allies, openly fighting together but in the movie, Robert the Bruce betrays Wallace. That couldn't be more wrong. Robert the Bruce was so committed to Scottish independence that he offed his rival in church to crown himself King.

Oh yay it s the internet, meaning half of the commenters are going to claim a kinship with somebody famous (Robert Bruce in this case. I ll bet their grandfathers were also at Pearl Harbor, Midway, and D-Day.

Say what you will about the historical inaccuracies. Braveheart is a perfect movie. Excellent writing, exciting action, emotional music, world class acting. It's one of my all time favorites

I recently found out that I m related to Robert the Bruce. He was my 15-16th great grandfather or something like that.

Or if you watch it for history like a dummy you might come away with thinking King Edward the 3rd's dad was William Wallace.
