Actually, William Wallace is a real character. For this reason, explaining the actual situation will help us to make sense of the movie while watching it. Wallace is indeed a Scottish rebel, and it's debatable according to whom and what, but as we can hear in our movie,

"History is written by those who killed the heroes."

In the time of our hero, who was born in the 13th century, King Edward of England, taking advantage of the mixed situation of Scotland, declares himself the ruler of Scotland as well. It is at this time that Wallace makes the move that will make him known even now as a hero and patriot, attacking the British sheriff's office in Lanapark and saving it from British invasion. However, he triggers revolts in his country, and people from all over Scotland come to him to join his rebellion. Just like in our movie. At the Battle of Stirling Bridge, Wallace ignites the fire of independence for Scotland by defeating an English army much larger than the rebel army. After that, he was knighted by the King of Scotland, but after a short time he was defeated in Falkirk and left the battlefield. He knows that he went to France when there was uncertainty after this, but when he returned, the King of Scotland agreed with Edward and a ceasefire was declared. After that, Wallace is on trial for treason and treason and utters that historical sentence that we can see in the movie.

"I never took an oath of allegiance to the king."

Wallace is executed in a hideous manner and parts of his body are scattered all over the country to be beheaded on London Bridge, but Wallace is more than a man, he is a country's hope of rebellion. Wallace is still remembered today as the fire of a country's independence and the hope of a generation. Even if someone is on trial for treason, we can all feel that he is the real patriot.

There are very simple things that we can realize while watching the movie and after being under its influence. Wallace not only believes in his cause, but also convinces other Scots and can convince us even now. Throughout the film, we can see the fire and hope in the eyes of the character of Wallace. Maybe the fact that it is a true story, maybe the fact that the subject is handled very well, or the fact that a successful acting has been produced affects us so much, but we all believe in freedom and the necessity of it. Maybe we all carry a little bit of Wallace's case inside of us, for example, don't you feel like screaming when a right is taken away from you? Do you shout loudly? How bad do you feel when you think you've been beaten?

It is always difficult to be someone different in a country, on a street or in a house, even in today's conditions, we can be subjected to all kinds of discrimination and injustice, even when walking from street to street and sometimes just going to the grocery store. Doesn't this bother us more often than starving or being injured? This injustice is what started Wallace's rebellion. We can see in the movie that the character of Wallace wants peace the most, but there is always peace away from a fight. Sometimes peace is found by rebelling, by seeking justice at any cost. After all, there is an account to be given to one's own self.

We are adding a very impressive scene from the movie here, it would be a great injustice if we do not include this scene of Wallace, who holds his head high despite all the pain even in the last moment of his life.

Wallace's life begins to be told from a rather dramatic time. The movie begins when the British first invaded Scotland. Wallace, who had to face the death of his father, patriotic nobles and friends as a young child, feels the weight of this scene both in his sleep and in the decisions he made throughout his life. However, as we can see at the beginning of the movie, Wallace is extremely cold-blooded even as a small child. Wallace, who spent the following years educating himself, does not seek revenge, even tries to stay away from revenge, but sometimes history reveals heroes. One day, when the love of your life is killed in a very painful way, it is no longer possible to sit down and sit down. In this way, the fire of independence for Scotland is lit thanks to the Yemeni meal of a young woman.

He joins his rebellion, first his own people, then people from many different cultures and villages. When we look back, we can clearly see that Wallace is not the only one who has been wronged in the story, but what makes the heroes heroes is not just their experiences, but the way they struggle with them. He stands up with courage and is able to get people to believe in him that getting people to believe in a cause at the cost of their lives can be one of the hardest things to do. Believing in something enough to give it's life strengthens our hero.

Throughout the film, we will not see Wallace back down, and we will see not only him but all his comrades burning with the same fire. When we say Scottish nobles and the British Royal Family, we can see the cruelty and injustice experienced by a whole nation from the beginning to the end of the film. We will talk about only one right that the British Crown gave to the Scottish nobility to hold Scotland: The Noble person, regardless of who he is, has the right to take the new bride to his bed on the wedding night! So they are declaring rape right. In our film, we will see the gravity of this, we will be able to see how a woman has no right over her own body and a man is forcibly incapable of defending his wife's rights. These are just some of the reasons why Wallace and his fellow comrades did not back down. We can see from the beginning to the end how much Wallace and his friends actually want to live in peace, but we will learn during the three hours that we spent with Wallace that it is not possible to be peaceful without being free.
