Braveheart (1995) Edit

A child who is not of your line grows in my belly.

A commoner named William Wallace.

A commoner with his own lands.

A country of our own.

A hundred men with his own sword.

A leading contender for the crown of Scotland.

A lordship and titles. Gold. That I should become Judas?

A mindless barbarian.

A rebellion has begun.

A royal entourage comes, flying banners of truce

A wise plan.

Actually, it was more like 50.

Advance!

After the beheading,

After them.

Agreed.

Alive, if possible. Dead, just as good.

All of you know full well the great pains I've always taken

All of you know full well the great pains I've always taken

All right, Father. I'll ask him.

All right, lads! I'm not dying for these bastards.

All right.

All right.

Always have.

Amen.

Amen.

Amen.

Among the farmers of that shire was Malcolm Wallace,

Among these was Robert, the 17th Earl of Bruce,

Among these was Robert, the 17th Earl of Bruce,

An assault on the king's soldiers

An assault on the king's soldiers

An oath to a liar is no oath at all.

And a good help you'd be, too,

And a patriot.

And barter a better deal with Longshanks before you tuck tail and run?

And beg his mercy.

And buy him off.

And dying in your beds many years from now,

And every town in northern England is begging for help.

And fought each other over the crown.

And free men you are.

And he fights for something that I've never had.

And he says that I speak for all of the Bruces and for Scotland.

And he will give you each estates in Yorkshire,

And how is your father? We missed him at the council.

And how would you deal with this brigand?

And I go to make sure that they have it.

And I leave you here to quell this little rebellion.

And I saw it in his face on the battlefield, and it's tearing me apart!

And I say we hit back now!

And I see a whole army of my countrymen here in defiance of tyranny.

And I starve their wives and their children.

And I took it from him when I betrayed him,

And I with you,

And I you,

And I, Robert the Bruce,

And if he were here, he'd consume the English

And if this is your army

And if you are Scotsmen, I'm ashamed to call myself one.

And if you would just lead them to freedom,

And make them too greedy to oppose us.

And many Scottish nobles, who would not be slaves,

And none of us and nothing of Scotland will remain unless we are as ruthless.

And nor will any Scot while I live.

And send in the infantry and cavalry.

And so would I.

And the common man that bleeds on the battlefield,

And the Highlanders are coming down on their own.

And the king of England,

And the rest of you will be spared.

And the standards of Longshanks himself!

And they're already taxed for the war in France.

And this day's lawlessness is how you repay my leniency!

And we need them now.

And we still have preparations to make, so I'll make this plain.

And when he replenishes his numbers...

And while this upstart awaits my arrival in York,

And while this upstart awaits my arrival in York,

And you have done nothing.

And you must open your eyes.

And you must wake.

And you shall have it.

And you wish to charge off and fight as he did?

And you...

And you'll be king.

And you're not my father.

And your father sees you, too.

Archers!

Archers.

Are you all right?

Are you all right? All right? Come on.

Are you in the habit of riding off in the rain with strangers?

Are you ready for a war?

Are you?

Arm yourselves!

Arriving so far around his flank.

Arrows cost money. Use up the Irish. The dead cost nothing.

As bride for his son,

As it matters in battle.

As lord of these lands, I will bless this marriage

At last, you know what it means to hate.

At least awhile.

At least three to one.

At least try to act like one.

At worst, he was a worthy enemy.

Attack.

Aye, he did.

Aye, in droves of hundreds and thousands.

Aye.

Aye.

Aye.

Aye.

Aye.

Aye. Aye, it was.

Aye. Fight, and you may die.

Bastard!

Be ready.

Because if they do not, I throw them off my land

Because of the way you are looking at me now.

Because they didn't charge in.

Because you won't stand together.

Before he lost his powers of speech, he told me his one comfort was

Before we let you leave,

Being a leader is.

Bring in the provisions!

Bring me Wallace.

Bring the food and provisions inside. Double the wall guards, seal the gate.

Bruce is not to be hurt! That's the arrangement!

Burn it.

But fighting these odds, it looks like rage, not courage.

But from top to bottom, this country has got no sense of itself.

But he fights with passion, and he inspires.

But he sends his greetings,

But he's pretty sure you're fucked.

But how will they believe our strength

But I assure you...

But I belong here.

But I need you to stay here and look after the place for me while I'm away.

But I think your face looks graver than mine.

But I want to go.

But it happened.

But it is exactly the ability to compromise that makes a man noble.

But it's our wits that make us men.

But men don't follow titles. They follow courage.

But remember that these men have lands and castles.

But that will all change when my sons arrive.

But they'll come back

But they'll never take our freedom?

But who will go to him?

But you can help yourselves. Go home.

But you must wake now.

But, sire, our nobles will be reluctant to uproot.

By God, you will not!

By neither supporting his decree nor opposing it.

By neither supporting his decree nor opposing it.

By taking the bride into my bed on the first night of her union.

Call it a test of soldiery, then.

Carry on!

Carry on.

Cavalry!

Charged the fields of Bannockburn.

Cheltham, this is William Wallace.

Christ! Shit! Search the place!

Claimed the throne of Scotland for himself.

Clearly meant to draw more of his supporters here.

Come back here, you bastard!

Come here, lad.

Come in. Come in.

Come on there, boy!

Come on, filth. Up on your feet.

Come on, Hamish!

Come on!

Come on!

Come.

Come. Let's get it over with.

Comes through and burns us out. And they will.

Coming through you.

Confess, and you may receive a quick death.

Confrontation might be a foregone conclusion, milord,

Convene my military council.

Corporal. Some archers on the tower. Now!

Could you crush a man with that throw?

Cry out, "Mercy."

Cry out.

Cut through them like...

Da?

Damn it!

Damn the Balliol clan! They're all Longshanks' men!

Deny, and you must be purified by pain.

Did God make you the sacker of peaceful cities,

Did he?

Did I swear allegiance to him.

Did you not hear what I said?

Die!

Do it not and every one of you will die today.

Do that and your men shall live.

Do that standing on your head, and I'll be impressed.

Do the nobles rally?

Do you confess?

Does anyone know his politics?

Does he risk less?

Don't you wish at least to lead your men onto the field

Drink this.

Easily dispersed if we strike the shepherd.

Edward Longshanks is the most ruthless king

Edward the Longshanks, King of England,

Enough?

Even if you dispatch them today, they'd take weeks to assemble.

Even now,

Even women and children, from the city walls.

Ever to sit on the throne of England,

Every man dies.

Every man of us is ready to swear loyalty to you.

Every nobleman who had a will to fight was at that meeting.

Except I see her strength in you.

Excuse me, sire, but there's a very urgent message from York.

Father, you all right?

Father!

Father.

Fifty if it was one.

Fine display, young Wallace.

Fine speech. Now what do we do?

First night.

Foods and weapons. They won't...

For 100 years of theft, **** and murder.

For if I'm senseless, or if I wail,

For one chance, just one chance,

For presenting yourselves on this battlefield, I give you thanks.

For your country.

Forgive me, sire.

Freedom!

From which you will pay him an annual duty...

From which you will pay the king an annual duty...

Gentlemen, please! Gentlemen!

Gentlemen.

Get away from me!

Get her!

Get up, you big heap.

Get up. Give us your hand.

Give ear to our nobles.

Give me the strength to die well.

Give their nobles estates here in England,

Glad to have you with us. Watch this.

Go back to England and tell them there

Go home, William, or you'll feel the back of my hand.

Go home.

Go you home, William.

Go!

God makes men what they are.

God, you certainly didn't learn any manners on your travels.

Good job, milord.

Grant our nobles lands in the north,

Grant them Prima Nocte.

Guardian and high protector of Scotland and thy captains as aides de camp.

Hamilton, leave us.

Hamish, ride ahead to Edinburgh and assemble the council.

Hamish, ride ahead to Edinburgh and assemble the council.

Hamish?

Have the local magistrate arrest him and punish him accordingly.

Have we not learned to live together in relative peace and harmony?

Have we not learned to live together in relative peace and harmony?

Have you anything to say?

He can invade lower England.

He declares it to me. I swear it.

He doesn't even have a knighthood,

He had two sons, John and William.

He has courage, so does a dog.

He proposes that you withdraw your attack.

He rallies new volunteers in every Scottish town,

He says he will attack no more towns or cities

He waits for you at York.

He warmed to our future queen and would trust her.

He'll come.

Heavy cavalry, armored horse. Shake the very ground.

Hello, lassie.

Help me.

Here are Scotland's terms.

Here are the king's terms. Lead this army off the field,

Here he comes!

Here you go, Son. Show him how.

Here. You can do it.

Here. You can do it. I'll hold him down.

Him? That can't be William Wallace. I'm prettier than this man.

His affairs in France keep him long overdue.

His arms and legs sent to the four corners of Britain as a warning.

His head was set on London Bridge,

His legend grows.

His whole northern army against us.

Historians from England will say I am a liar,

Hold him. Now let him go.

Hold still, Father.

Hold!

Holy Jesus.

Home! The English are too many.

How did you know me after so long?

How no army had ever stood up to a charge of heavy horse.

Huh?

Humbly, milord.

Hundreds of them. Long spears, twice as long as a man.

I am skilled in the arts of war and military tactics, sire.

I am the Princess of Wales.

I am William Wallace,

I am William Wallace.

I am, Wallace.

I beg pardon, sire. Won't we hit our own troops?

I beg you.

I brought you this. My wife made it for you.

I can fight.

I can't bear the thought of your torture.

I can't hear, but it doesn't look good.

I cannot be king.

I come as the king's servant and with his authority.

I could crush you like a worm.

I demand recognition of these documents!

I depart for France to press our rights there,

I didn't come here to fight so they could own more lands.

I didn't like him anyway.

I didn't think you were in the tent that long.

I didn't. It's just... I saw you staring at me,

I dispatched them before I sent your wife.

I don't know about the Welsh yet, but the Irish have landed!

I don't think she sees me. I know she does.

I don't want anything from you.

I don't want to be a martyr.

I don't want to leave.

I don't want to wake.

I gave it to ease the suffering of the children of this war.

I gave Mornay double his lands in Scotland

I give homage to Scotland,

I had to see it with me own eyes before I could believe it.

I have an offer for you.

I have been given nothing.

I have come to beg for the life of William Wallace.

I have declared Phillip my high counselor.

I have dispatched 100 soldiers to Lanark.

I have never spoken of it.

I have ordered conscriptions, sir. They're assembled and ready to depart.

I hear that Longshanks has granted Prima Nocte.

I heard the word in France,

I heard. This Wallace is a brigand, nothing more.

I know about your woman.

I know he will.

I know it is hard.

I know it seems like a waste of good whiskey.

I know who my father was.

I know you can fight.

I know.

I mean this.

I never did her any harm. It was my right.

I received your message.

I respect what you said,

I said I have an offer for you.

I said leave me!

I sent for him, and he sends you.

I shall offer a truce

I shall tell you of William Wallace.

I think if the Bruce wanted to kill you, he'd have done it already at Falkirk.

I think your position exists to provide those people with freedom,

I told you to stay.

I understand you have recently been given the rank of knight.

I understand you have suffered.

I want a home and children and peace.

I want to believe, as he does.

I want to marry you.

I want to stay here with you.

I want what you want, but we need the nobles.

I was very young,

I was wondering if I might have a word with your daughter.

I was wondering if you could do that when it matters.

I will gain English favor by condemning it

I will invade England and defeat the English on their own ground.

I will love you my whole life,

I will not.

I wouldn't worry about them. Didn't I tell you before?

I wouldn't worry about them. Didn't I tell you before?

I'd say that was rather less cordial than he was used to.

I'll hold him down.

I'll see you after.

I'll send you a written warning first.

I'm a happy man.

I'm a happy man.

I'm dreaming.

I'm dying.

I'm not a coward.

I'm not about to tell my uncle I've lost him the greatest city in northern England.

I'm not finished!

I'm not going to steal it.

I'm so afraid.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I'm the most wanted man on my island, except I'm not on my island, of course.

I'm the one who's rotting,

I'm your uncle. Argyle.

I've asked God for those things.

I've come to claim the right of Prima Nocte.

I've come to fetch you to our meeting.

I've lived long enough to live free.

If he can sack York,

If he wants his queen to rule when I am gone,

If I can ever work up the courage to ask you again,

If I fell under the sword of that murderer,

If I risk my neck for you, will I get a chance to kill Englishmen?

If I swear to him,

If not, we charge.

If we can't get them out, we'll breed them out.

If we join, we can win.

If we win, well, then we'll have what none of us have ever had before.

If what Lord Hamilton tells me is correct,

If you are man enough to come and face him.

If you can only live.

If you can prove it, you may court my daughter.

If you make enemies on both sides of the border,

If you'll not stand up with us now, then I say you're cowards.

In order to find his equal, an Irishman is forced to talk to God.

In return, he grants you title, estates,

In the morning,

In the name of Christ, help yourselves!

In this? You're out of your mind.

In time, who knows what can happen

In time, you will have all the power in Scotland.

In two centuries, no army has won...

In your heart, you always knew what had to happen here.

Including hereditary title, from which you will pay...

Indulge me.

Infantry!

Insolent bastard. I want this Wallace's heart on a plate.

Irish.

Is he qualified?

Is that a yes?

Is that it's full of Scots.

Is the same as an assault on the king himself.

Is your father a ghost, or do you converse with the Almighty?

It can all end right now.

It did not have the effect that Longshanks planned.

It doesn't matter.

It is my noble right.

It is time to survive.

It might be my head in a basket.

It was in Latin.

It was the best way to make you leave.

It was the same for me and your daddy when our father was killed.

It was widely whispered that for the princess to conceive,

It will be worse than before.

It will dull your pain.

It's about to be kissed by a king.

It's all for nothing if you don't have freedom.

It's good Scottish weather, madam. The rain is falling straight down.

It's not your fault.

It's the pledge of Robert the Bruce.

It's up to us, Hamish.

It's well beyond rage.

It's William Wallace, sure.

It's you she takes after.

Jesus.

Joining the nobles is the only hope for our people.

Just answer the fucking question.

Just be yourselves.

Just say it. Mercy.

Just when we thought all hope was lost,

Keep it quiet, Smythe.

Knowing their minds is the key to the throne.

Lads, make way.

Lands, titles, men, power, nothing.

Leave me.

Leave us.

Leaving him aside, what about the others?

Let me do the talking. Agreed?

Let us talk plainly.

Let's go home!

Like any common thief.

Lochlan.

Long known to support the Balliol clan,

Longshanks desires peace?

Longshanks did far worse the last time he took a Scottish city.

Longshanks had chosen the daughter of his rival,

Longshanks required Wallace. So did our nobles.

Longshanks would have to do the honors himself.

Look lively, Sergeant.

Loose!

Loose!

Lord Craig, is it true about Mornay?

Lords, Craig is right!

Lower your flags and march straight back to England,

MacAndrews!

MacAndrews!

MacAndrews'. He was supposed to visit when the gathering was over.

MacAulish!

MacAulish! MacAulish!

MacAulish! MacAulish!

MacAulish.

MacClannough's daughter is another matter.

MacGregors, from the next glen.

Mademoiselle.

Majesty.

Make it quick.

Make way for the king!

Make way, lads. Make...

Many years later,

May we invite you to continue your support and uphold our rightful claim?

Maybe me.

Meet me at the grove. Ride!

Men fight for me

Mercy is to die quickly, perhaps even live in a tower.

Mercy!

Mercy!

Mercy! Mercy!

Mercy! Mercy!

Mercy! Mercy!

Milady,

Milady.

Milord, the princess might be taken hostage

Milord, Wallace is renowned for his ability to smell an ambush.

Mmm hmm.

More a liability now than ever he was. And there's no telling who'll be next.

More's the pity.

Mornay and Lochlan have come,

Mornay, Lochlan, Craig.

Mornay? Lochlan?

Murron, would you like to come and ride with me on this fine evening?

Murron!

Murron?

Murron? Come in now.

Must have made an impression.

My army has marched for more days than I can remember

My father believes that we must lull Longshanks into our confidence

My greatness will be better demonstrated

My hate will die with you.

My kilt will fly up, but I'll try it.

My land.

My name is Faudron. My sword is yours.

My scouts tell me that he has not advanced.

My scouts tell me their archers are miles away and no threat to us.

My sodomite cousin the prince tells me he has no troops to lend,

My son would be most distressed by that.

My son's loyal wife returns unkilled by the heathen.

Nah.

Nest of scheming bastards!

Never in my whole life

Never to be too strict, too rigid with the application of our laws.

New lands mean new taxes,

No weapons, one page only.

No, but his weight with the commoners could unbalance everything.

No, please, gentlemen!

No, please, gentlemen!

No, please!

No, please!

No, stop.

No! No!

No! No! No!

No.

No.

No.

No. It will numb my wits, and I must have them all.

Nobles are the key to the door of Scotland.

Nobles.

Nobles.

Nor I. I want to live.

Nor me.

Not a king like you, milord.

Not every man really lives.

Not yet, but I was hoping that you could help me with that.

Nothing new, Your Majesty. We've sent riders to speed any word.

Nothing.

Now behold the awful price of treason!

Now bleed with me.

Now in Edinburgh

Now is our chance. Now.

Now you're ready to be a king.

Now, let this scrapper come to me.

Now, our people know you. Noble and common, they respect you,

Now, Son...

Now, unless you want to see Edinburgh razed to the ground...

Now, where are the rest of you? Where's Wallace?

Now, who's with me?

Now, you've achieved more than anyone ever dreamed,

Now!

Now!

Of course I will.

Of course, running a farm's a lot of work,

Off with their hoods.

On my signal, ride round behind our position and flank them.

One day, you will be a king,

One day, you'll be a queen,

Or her life be put in jeopardy.

Other options?

Others think you'll pay them Mornay's wages.

Our cavalry will ride them down like grass.

Our noble saviors have arrived.

Our nobles shall have sexual rights to her on the night of her wedding.

Patriots of Scotland, starving and outnumbered,

Patrol returning, milord!

Peace.

Perhaps the time has come to reinstitute an old custom.

Personal escort of the princess.

Pick a flock of your finest assassins and set a meeting.

Playing outlawed tunes on outlawed pipes.

Pleasant, yes?

Please, gentlemen!

Please, just say it.

Please, Sir William, speak with me alone.

Please.

Pledge us your pardon, and we'll unite behind you.

Present himself before this army, put his head between his legs,

Protect the king.

Protect the king.

Quite a lovely gathering.

Quite a lovely gathering.

Rack him!

Raise the alarm! Help!

Raise the alarm! Help!

Retreat!

Right.

Right.

Right. Come on.

Rightly so.

Rise to your knees, kiss the royal emblem on my cloak,

Robert the Bruce and most of the others will not commit to battle,

Rode out to pay homage to the armies of the English king

Rope!

Run, and you'll live.

Saying goodbye in their own way.

Scotland.

Scottish rebels have routed one of my garrisons and murdered the noble lord.

See you tomorrow.

See, every Scot with a horse is fleeing.

Send in the rest!

Send the horse. Full attack.

Send the infantry.

Shall I come with you?

Shall I leave, milord?

Shame! Shame!

She was my wife.

Show mercy, O thou great king, and win the respect of your own people.

Sir William,

Sir William, we've come to seek a meeting.

Sir William.

Sir, I come to beg you

Sir, I know it was strange of me to invite Murron to ride last night,

Sir, we can get you out if you leave now.

Sir!

Sit down. Stay awhile.

Smart enough to get a dagger past your guards, old man.

So how does it help us to join the side that is slaughtered?

So let the council swear publicly.

So Longshanks invited them to talks of truce,

So many.

So our little ruse succeeded. Thank you.

So we bid you to Edinburgh. Meet us two days from now.

So we'll dispatch her with the notion that she comes in peace.

So what news?

So will the Bruce.

So you've got children?

Some men are longer than others.

Some of us are in this.

Son,

Son, look at me.

Sons of Scotland,

Sooner rather than later, I hope.

Stand up, man. I'm not the Pope.

Stand up. Stand up.

Stay out of it, Robert!

Steady!

Stop, men! Do not flee!

Stop!

Stopping at every home you pass by to beg forgiveness

Stretch him!

Supervised the wedding of his eldest son,

Sure didn't the Almighty send me to watch your back?

Take it.

Take out their archers. I'll meet you in the middle.

Taxes or no taxes.

Tell me,

Thank you.

That he would live to know Wallace was dead.

That may have been what he had in mind all along.

That Scotland's daughters and her sons are yours no more.

That should fetch just the kind of lords we want to Scotland,

That they may take our lives,

That wouldn't do you much good. I can't read.

That you've missed your God given right to something better.

That'll wake you up in the morning, boy.

That's a good throw.

That's it! Stretch him!

That's my friend, Irishman, and the answer to your question is yes.

That's what happens when you send a woman.

The 16 before you passed you land and title

The Almighty says this must be a fashionable fight.

The Balliols will kiss his arse, and so we must.

The Bruce is not coming, William.

The English are advancing an army toward Stirling.

The English won't let us train with weapons,

The executioner of the king's nephew, my husband's own cousin?

The French and the Romans have far worse manners than I.

The French will grovel to anyone with strength,

The king desires peace.

The King of France.

The king of Scotland had died without a son,

The king will be dead in a month and his son is a weakling.

The king's terms?

The last time Longshanks spoke of peace, I was a boy,

The Lord bless thee and keep thee.

The Lord cause his light to shine on thee.

The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee and give thee peace.

The Lord tells me he can get me out of this mess,

The main force of our armies from France will land here

The mere sight of him

The nobles will negotiate. They'll do a deal, then we go home.

The prisoner wishes to say a word.

The test of a soldier is not in his arm.

The trouble with Scotland

The weather's just fine. It's hardly raining.

The Welsh bowmen will not be detected

The word, my son, is that our entire northern army is annihilated,

Then all that I am is dead already.

Then I'll have to work for them.

Then I'll teach you to use this.

Then Longshanks will have broken me.

Then on the morrow, you shall receive your purification.

Then tell me, what advice would you offer on the present situation?

Then why does he stay?

Then, by all means, stay and learn how.

There he is! After him!

There will be a new shipment of supplies coming north next month.

There.

There's somebody coming!

There's somebody coming.

These documents were lies when you wrote them!

They couldn't even agree on the color of shite!

They fought for William Wallace,

They fought like Scotsmen,

They fought like warrior poets.

They killed her to get to me.

They seem quite optimistic to me. Maybe they do want to fight.

They'd follow you.

They'll think we run away.

They're as rich in English titles and lands as they are in Scottish.

They're coming out. Shall we go and meet them?

They're getting away!

They're sheep, mere sheep!

This cannot be the way.

This is the second time you have warned me of danger.

This time, our only option is to negotiate.

This Wallace,

Those men who bled the ground red at Falkirk,

Those were lies when you first wrote them.

Three hundred heavy horse, we've no chance.

To come back here and tell our enemies

To confess all and swear allegiance to the king that he might show you mercy.

To discuss the king's proposals.

To do what?

To here, milord.

To the north of Edinburgh.

To those you mean to rule.

To you, that word is as unfamiliar as love.

Tomorrow you'll come home with me.

Uncle Argyle used to talk about it,

Uncompromising men are easy to admire.

Under whom?

Understood? Is it?

Unite us! Unite the clans.

Unite us.

Until you prove it, my answer's no.

Until you prove it, my answer's no.

Up! Get up!

Very well.

Volunteers coming in!

Wait until we've negotiated!

Wait!

Wait! And you're prepared to recognize our legitimate succession, I take it.

Wait! Sir William, where are you going?

Wait. Wait. Look.

Wake up, William.

Wake up.

Wallace has already killed the magistrate and taken control of the town.

Wallace has sacked York!

Wallace rode into his bedchamber and killed him.

Wallace! Wallace!

Wallace! Wallace!

Wallace! Wallace!

Wallace! Wallace!

Wallace! Wallace!

Wallace! Wallace! Wallace!

Wallace! Wallace! Wallace! Wallace!

We best hurry. He'll be waiting.

We can still negotiate.

We cannot beat an army. Not with 50 farmers.

We cannot fight them! It's suicide!

We cannot. Some scarcely believe you're alive.

We didn't come here to fight for them!

We do not have to beat them, just fight them.

We don't want you amadáns thinking you can have your fun without us.

We have beaten the English,

We have reserves.

We heard about what was happening.

We married in secret because I would not share her with an English lord.

We must have alliance with England to prevail here.

We require every soldier you can summon.

We will run, and we will live.

We won at Stirling, and still you quibble!

We won at York, and you would not support us.

We would soon find the king of France a useful ally against the Scots.

We would stop him!

We'll have no homes left when the English garrison from the castle

We'll make spears.

We'll stay here tonight.

We've got orders from the king that nobody...

We've got to try. We can't do this alone.

We've lived that dream.

Welcome.

Well done!

Well, I finished my work.

Well, I'm here to claim the right of a husband!

Well, that's something we shall have to remedy, isn't it?

Well, that's something we shall have to remedy, isn't it?

Well, then, do it. Would you like to see him crush me like a worm?

Well, we didn't get dressed up for nothing.

Well, what's the point?

Well, who is in command? Did he have a scarlet chevron?

Well, you leave me with little choice.

Welsh bowmen? Troops from France? Irish conscripts?

Were gathered the council of Scottish nobles.

Were lured by him, under a flag of truce, to a barn where he had them hanged.

What are they doing?

What are they talking about?

What beast could do such a thing?

What do you want to have a word with her about?

What does that mean?

What I tell you, you must do. Not for me, not for yourself,

What kind of man is he?

What news of the north?

What the hell are the Irish doing fighting with the English?

What was it like?

What will you do?

What you waiting for, boy?

What?

When am I going to see you again? Tonight?

When any common girl inhabiting their lands is married,

When Wallace returns to Scotland and finds his country in ashes.

When we cannot rule the whole of our own island?

When? When? When?

Where are we going?

Where are you going, lassie? That looks heavy.

Where I was fighting to expand your future kingdom.

Where is thy salute?

Who do you think will rule this kingdom?

Who is this person who speaks to me as though I needed his advice?

Who would succeed him to the throne.

Why do you help me?

Why does it go?

Why?

Why? Why is that impossible?

Why? Why?

Will he show mercy to my country?

Will you speak with a woman?

William Wallace is seven feet tall.

William Wallace killed 50 men.

William Wallace, we've come to fight and to die for you.

William Wallace, you stand in taint of high treason.

William Wallace's body was torn to pieces.

William, wake up, wake up.

William, will you dance with me?

William! There's riders approaching!

William! William, it's all right. It's all right. Easy, lad.

William.

William.

With matching estates in England. Lochlan turned for much less.

With such a force arrayed against us, it's time to discuss other options.

With your father and brother gone, they'll kill us and burn the farm.

Would only encourage an enemy to take over the whole country.

Would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that

Wouldn't have anything to do with that, would it?

Wouldn't you agree?

Yeah. It's mine.

Yes, but we'll hit theirs as well.

Yes, Father? The Almighty says don't change the subject,

Yes, I've heard. He kills men by the hundreds,

Yes, you are.

You achieved that.

You admire this man, this William Wallace.

You and no other.

You ask your king to his face. Ask him.

You bastards!

You be ready and do exactly as I say.

You bitch!

You bitch!

You bitch!

You didn't want your father to die either, did you?

You do know it's a trap. Tell him.

You don't speak Latin?

You fight for me, you get to kill the English.

You have bled with Wallace!

You invade England,

You know what happens if we don't take that chance?

You know, eventually, Longshanks will send

You may return to your embroidery.

You remember me?

You remind me of my daughter back home.

You rotting bastard!

You said yourself, the nobles will not support Wallace.

You saved your family, increased your land.

You say you want to stay out of the troubles?

You see if his eyes can convince you of the truth.

You see,

You see, as king, you must find the good in any situation.

You tell your king that William Wallace will not be ruled,

You think the people of this country exist to provide you with position.

You want to negotiate?

You want to negotiate?

You will die. It will be awful.

You will embrace this rebellion. Support it from our lands in the north.

You will fall to your knees now,

You win.

You'll never beat Hamish.

You're a madman.

You're doing this to be a hero 'cause you think she sees you.

You're going with me, are you?

You're my son, and you have always known my mind.

You're not a man!

You're quite taken with him, aren't you?

You're showing off now.

You're so concerned with squabbling for the scraps from Longshanks' table

You're the 17th Robert Bruce.

You're the ones who won't support the rightful king.

You're the rightful leader, and there is strength in you. I see it.

You've all sworn loyalty to Longshanks.

You've come to fight as free men.

Your blood dies with you.

Your commander must cross that field,

Your dream isn't about freedom. It's about Murron.

Your father was a fighter

Your heart is free.

Your island? You mean Ireland?

Your meetings are a waste of time, Campbell.

Your mother been telling you stories about me again.

Your pardon, milord. He asked me to come in his stead.

Your personal escorts, even yourselves,

Your right?

Your title gives you claim to the throne of our country,

A most excellent idea, sire. Is it?

Advance! Advance!

Against whom? Against your king.

All men betray, all lose heart. I don't want to lose heart!

All right, all right. Ready.

All right. Right.

Amen. Amen.

and I didn't know who you were. I'm sorry. I suppose I was.

And what are you going to do? I'm gonna help.

Archers, forward! Archers, forward!

Archers! Archers! Archers!

Archers. Archers.

Are you all right? Aye.

Aye. Aye.

Aye. I know. I saw.

Call a meeting of the nobles. They do nothing but talk.

Can I come? No. Go home, boy.

Can you not? No.

Can you ride? Aye.

Cavalry! Cavalry!

Come do it. You'll move.

Didn't I just prove it? No!

Didn't I just prove it? No!

Do you? Aye, I do.

Gentlemen! Now is the time to declare a king.

Get him out of here! Jesus!

Good evening, sir. Young Wallace.

Good to see you this morning! Hi. How are you?

Got my head. Well, you should have moved.

Grand soft evening, huh? Aye, it's that.

He advances! To which town?

He won't come. He will.

He'll move. Come on, Hamish.

I brought you this. We checked them for arms.

I should have remembered the rocks. Aye, you should have.

I want you to die! Soon enough, I'll be dead

I'm serious, Robert. So am I!

Infantry! Infantry!

It's a trap. Are you blind? Look at us.

It's all right! William! William!

It's good to see you again. Aye. Welcome home.

It's here. No. It's here.

Let me help you with it. No. It's fine.

Mercy, William. Mercy. Jesus, now say it.

Milady... Leave us. Now.

Milord, I think... All right. Offer them the terms.

Milord... You lead them!

Murron! Murron! Get...

My dad's growing suspicious. Growing suspicious, is he?

No the now. No the now?

No? No the now, anyway.

No? No, Wallace. No.

No? No, Wallace. No.

No? No!

No. That's the truth.

Nothing? I have nothing.

Order it. Aye.

Peace is made in such ways. Slaves are made in such ways!

Scotland will be one. One? You mean us and you.

Sir William... We can't defeat this army!

Slightly to the side, like. She can't go with you.

So he accepted our bribe? No, he did not.

So would I. Well, maybe it's time.

So you want me to marry you, then? It's a bit sudden, but all right.

Something's got to be done. Wallace is right! We fight them!

Stand up to him! I will stand up to him and more.

That long? Aye.

That's just a dream, William. A dream? Just a...

That's right. Aye.

The archers are ready, sire. Not the archers.

They will be returning now! Were they dressed like this?

This is out, and this is left. Of course.

Three hundred heavy horse? We must try to negotiate.

Tonight. Tonight.

Wait. Where are you going?

Wallace has sacked York. What?

We can! And we will! Sir William!

We must not divide our forces. Do it and let the English see you do it.

We need them? Aye.

Well, what news? We're outnumbered,

What kind of meeting? The secret kind.

What's that? You'll see.

When? Tonight.

Where are you going? I'm going to pick a fight.

William Wallace. Can't be. Not tall enough.

You could? Aye.

You deceived me. You let yourself be deceived.

You disrespect a banner of truce? From his king? Absolutely.

You're going to teach me to read, then? If you like.

You've been to Rome? Aye, Argyle took me on a pilgrimage.

You've dropped your rock. Test of manhood.

Your Highness. I will see the prisoner.

Your island? My island! Yup!

"The Lord bless thee and keep thee"?
