Freeeeeeedom!!!!!

I don't know why it doesn't have me as a verified purchaser, I am! This is one of the greatest ever movies as Mel Gibson portrays Scotland's hero freedom fighter, William Wallace. This movie has it all, action, romance, loss, sadness, happiness, murder, revenge, friendship, loyalty, dishonor/disloyalty but then redemption! It is so well done. I loved the part when William's uncle comes to get him after his dad&bro were ambushed & its night as they're heading away in a horse drawn cart there's a Scot in his tribal garb playing the bagpipes & the boy asks "what is he playing?"& the uncle says "one of the forbidden songs..."as the authoritarian imperialist British monarchy had its heavy hand on Scotland & was still crushing when William returns as a grown man. Truth & mythical persona make for a great story(& gave needed hope to the ever oppressed Scots)& all that makes for a sensation movie, especially with Mel Gibson starring as the hero who is indeed "BRAVEHEART"!
