It's a good film which gives the main story but it isn't wholly historically correct. E.g. William Wallace wasn't like Mel Gibson depicted him. He was tall & fat & had a beard & moustache. I'm glad you enjoyed the film though.
Yes
I read that he was a big commanding man
The movie depicted him positively I felt.
Mel was also the director so it was his vision
I'm noticing YouTube is removing whole movies
Sad to see
Mel Gibson tried his best but it is very hard to get historically correct information about Scottish history out of Scotland. I also think that more of the cast should have been Scottish to give a more realistic depiction though some of them did a brilliant job. That is indeed sad to see.
