SYNOPSIS
Braveheart is the story about the Scotland hero named William Wallace
who rebels for English tyranny. In 1280 A.D. Edward I of England, known as
"Longshanks" has occupied most of Scotland, and his oppressive rule there leads
to the dead of William Wallace's father, named Malcom Wallace, and brother,
John Wallace. In the funeral of his father, the young Murron picked a thistle and
gave to young William who felt and looked sad. Years later and after Wallace has
grown up with his uncle named Argyle outside of Scotland, the Scots continue to
live under the harsh thumb of Longshanks' cruel laws. Wallace returns intent on
living as a farmer and avoiding involvement in the ongoing "Troubles". Wallace
rekindles a romance with his childhood friend Murron after showing her the
carefully preserved thistle she gave him as a child, and the two marry in secret to
avoid the prima nocte decree the King has set forth, that the point was every
people who were married, the groom must be shared the bride to the King in their
first time they got marry. After Wallace beats up a group of English soldiers -one
of them named Symthe-attempting to rape Murron, the village Sheriff publicly
cuts her throat before Wallace is able to save her. An enraged Wallace, with the
assistance of his fellow townsmen, slaughters the English soldiers at the
encampment, killing the sheriff in the same manner that Murron was killed. He
then orders the burning of the local English fort, and unintentionally kindles a
Scottish rebellion.
