Braveheart
|
00:01:39 |
I shall tell you of William Wallace. |
00:01:43 |
Historians from England will say I am a liar. |
00:01:47 |
But history is written by those |
00:01:52 |
The King of Scotland had died without a son. |
00:01:56 |
a cruel pagan known as |
00:02:01 |
claimed the throne of Scotland for himself. |
00:02:04 |
Scotland's nobles fought him |
00:02:07 |
and fought each other over the crown. |
00:02:11 |
So Longshanks invited them |
00:02:15 |
No weapons. One page only. |
00:02:22 |
One farmer of that shire was Malcolm |
00:02:27 |
He had two sons: John and William. |
00:02:37 |
I told you to stay. |
00:02:40 |
Well, I finished my work. |
00:02:44 |
MacAndrews'. He was supposed |
00:02:47 |
- Can I come? |
00:02:49 |
- But I want to go. |
00:02:53 |
Away hame, William. |
00:03:20 |
MacAndrews. |
00:03:35 |
Holy Jesus. |
00:04:22 |
William. |
00:04:28 |
It's all right, it's all right. Easy, lad. |
00:04:48 |
William. |
00:04:51 |
And I say we hit back now. |
00:04:53 |
- We cannae fight them. |
00:04:57 |
Wallace is right. We fight them. |
00:04:59 |
Every nobleman willing to fight |
00:05:02 |
We cannot beat an army. |
00:05:06 |
We do not have to beat them... |
00:05:09 |
- Now, who's with me? |
00:05:13 |
- All right. |
00:05:31 |
- Where do you think you're going? |
00:05:34 |
Och, are ye? And what are you going to do? |
00:05:38 |
- I'm gonna help. |
00:05:43 |
But I need you to stay here |
00:05:45 |
and look after the place for me |
00:05:51 |
I can fight. |
00:05:55 |
I know. I know you can fight. |
00:06:03 |
But it's our wits that make us men. |
00:06:11 |
See ye tomorrow. |
00:06:44 |
- English. |
00:06:47 |
With your father and brother gone, |
00:06:52 |
It's up to us, Hamish. |
00:07:58 |
Da? |
00:09:20 |
William. |
00:09:25 |
Come here, lad. |
00:12:53 |
William. |
00:12:57 |
I'm your uncle. Argyle. |
00:13:13 |
You have the look of your mother. |
00:13:26 |
We'll stay here tonight. |
00:13:31 |
I don't want to leave. |
00:13:33 |
You didn't want your father |
00:13:37 |
But it happened. |
00:13:42 |
Did the priest give a poetic benediction? |
00:13:45 |
- The Lord bless thee and keep thee... |
00:13:49 |
You don't speak Latin? |
00:13:53 |
That's something we shall have to remedy. |
00:13:59 |
The Lord |
00:14:01 |
bless thee and keep thee. |
00:14:04 |
The Lord cause his light to shine on thee. |
00:14:07 |
The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee |
00:14:10 |
and give thee peace. |
00:14:13 |
Amen. |
00:14:21 |
Your heart is free. |
00:14:25 |
Have the courage to follow it. |
00:14:54 |
What are they doing? |
00:14:56 |
Saying goodbye in their own way. |
00:15:00 |
Playing outlawed tunes on outlawed pipes. |
00:15:14 |
It was the same for me and your daddy |
00:15:45 |
First, learn to use... |
00:15:49 |
this. |
00:15:51 |
Then I'll teach you... to use |
00:15:55 |
this. |
00:16:26 |
Many years later, |
00:16:28 |
Edward the Longshanks, King of England, |
00:16:32 |
supervised the wedding of his eldest son, |
00:16:39 |
Amen. |
00:16:44 |
As bride for his son, |
00:16:46 |
Longshanks had chosen |
00:16:50 |
the King of France. |
00:17:15 |
It was widely whispered |
00:17:19 |
Longshanks would have |
00:17:23 |
That may have been |
00:17:30 |
Scotland... |
00:17:33 |
My land. |
00:17:36 |
The French will grovel |
00:17:41 |
But how will they believe our strength |
00:17:58 |
- Where is my son? |
00:18:02 |
He asked me to come in his stead. |
00:18:04 |
I sent for him and he sends you? |
00:18:07 |
Shall I leave, my Lord? |
00:18:10 |
If he wants his queen to rule when I am gone, |
00:18:14 |
then by all means stay and learn how. Please. |
00:18:23 |
Nobles. |
00:18:25 |
Nobles are the key to the door of Scotland. |
00:18:28 |
Grant our nobles lands in the North. |
00:18:32 |
Give their nobles estates here in England. |
00:18:38 |
But, sir, our nobles |
00:18:41 |
New lands mean new taxes and they're |
00:18:46 |
Are they? |
00:18:49 |
Are they? |
00:19:09 |
The trouble with Scotland |
00:19:11 |
is that it's full of Scots. |
00:19:18 |
Perhaps the time has come |
00:19:20 |
to reinstitute an old custom. |
00:19:23 |
Grant them primae noctis. |
00:19:29 |
First night. When any common girl |
00:19:34 |
our nobles shall have sexual rights to her |
00:19:43 |
If we can't get them out, |
00:19:45 |
we'll breed them out. |
00:19:49 |
That should fetch just the kind |
00:19:53 |
Taxes or no taxes. |
00:19:55 |
A most excellent idea, sire. |
00:19:57 |
Is it? |
00:20:04 |
Now, in Edinburgh were gathered |
00:20:08 |
Among these was Robert, |
00:20:13 |
a leading contender |
00:20:23 |
I hear that Longshanks |
00:20:26 |
Clearly meant to draw |
00:20:31 |
My father believes we must lull |
00:20:35 |
by neither supporting his decree |
00:20:38 |
- A wise plan. |
00:20:42 |
His affairs in France keep him long overdue. |
00:20:50 |
But he sends his greetings. |
00:20:52 |
And he says that I speak |
00:20:55 |
and for Scotland. |
00:23:09 |
- You've dropped your rock. |
00:23:14 |
You win. |
00:23:18 |
Call it a test of soldiery, then. |
00:23:20 |
The English won't let us train with weapons, |
00:23:24 |
The test of a soldier is not in his arm. |
00:23:28 |
No. It's here. |
00:23:37 |
Hamish? |
00:23:52 |
Here you go, son. Show him how. |
00:23:55 |
- Come on, Hamish. |
00:24:00 |
Come on. |
00:24:14 |
That's a good throw. |
00:24:16 |
Aye, it was. |
00:24:19 |
I was wondering |
00:24:24 |
As it... as it matters in battle. |
00:24:29 |
Could you crush a man with that throw? |
00:24:31 |
I could crush you... like a worm. |
00:24:37 |
- You could? |
00:24:39 |
Well, then, do it. |
00:24:47 |
- Come and do it. |
00:24:49 |
- I will not. |
00:24:52 |
He'll move. |
00:24:54 |
Come on, Hamish. |
00:24:57 |
Come on there, boy. |
00:25:07 |
Well done. |
00:25:23 |
- A fine display. |
00:25:27 |
- You look a wee bit shaky. |
00:25:31 |
Aye. |
00:25:38 |
Get up, you big heap of... |
00:25:41 |
- It's good to see ye again. |
00:25:46 |
- Look what you did to my head. |
00:26:00 |
William, will you dance with me? |
00:26:03 |
Of course I will. |
00:26:30 |
I've come to claim the right |
00:26:33 |
As lord of these lands, I will bless this |
00:26:40 |
on the first night of her union. |
00:26:43 |
By God you will not! |
00:26:48 |
It is my noble right. |
00:28:52 |
- Good evening, sir. |
00:28:56 |
- A grand soft evening. |
00:28:59 |
Might I have a word with your daughter? |
00:29:04 |
What do you want to have a word about? |
00:29:06 |
Well... |
00:29:08 |
Murron, would you like to ride with me |
00:29:13 |
In this? You're out of your mind. |
00:29:17 |
It's good Scottish weather, madam. |
00:29:21 |
- She cannot go with you. |
00:29:24 |
No. No the now, anyway. |
00:29:26 |
- No the now. |
00:29:28 |
- We'll see ye later. |
00:29:32 |
Did you no hear what I said? |
00:29:34 |
Murron. |
00:29:39 |
It's you she takes after. |
00:30:11 |
- How did you know me after so long? |
00:30:15 |
I saw you staring at me |
00:30:19 |
I'm sorry. I suppose I was. |
00:30:23 |
Are you in the habit of riding off |
00:30:26 |
It was the best way to make you leave. |
00:30:32 |
If I ever find the courage to ask ye again, |
00:30:36 |
- It wouldn't help. I can't read. |
00:30:39 |
No. |
00:30:43 |
- That's something we shall have to remedy. |
00:30:47 |
- Aye, if you like. |
00:30:50 |
- In what language? |
00:30:55 |
- That's right. Are you impressed yet? |
00:31:06 |
Do that standing on your head, |
00:31:10 |
- My kilt'll fly up, but I'll try. |
00:31:14 |
The French and the Romans |
00:31:17 |
- You went to Rome? |
00:31:21 |
What was it like? |
00:31:27 |
What does that mean? |
00:31:30 |
Beautiful. |
00:31:34 |
But I belong here. |
00:32:09 |
Murron. Come in now. |
00:33:22 |
Sir, I know it was strange of me |
00:33:27 |
MacClannough's daughter is another matter. |
00:33:30 |
- I've come to fetch you to a meeting. |
00:33:34 |
- The secret kind. |
00:33:40 |
Your father was a fighter... |
00:33:43 |
...and a patriot. |
00:33:47 |
I know who my father was. |
00:33:50 |
I came home to raise crops |
00:33:55 |
- If I can live in peace, I will. |
00:33:58 |
- You want to stay out of the troubles? |
00:34:01 |
If you can prove it, |
00:34:04 |
Until you prove it, the answer is no. |
00:34:06 |
- No. |
00:34:10 |
- Didn't I just prove it? |
00:34:12 |
- No? |
00:34:56 |
Of course, running a farm is a lot of work. |
00:34:59 |
But that will all change when my sons arrive. |
00:35:04 |
So, you've got children. |
00:35:06 |
Well, not yet. But I was hoping |
00:35:10 |
So you want me to marry you, then? |
00:35:11 |
Well, it's a bit sudden, but all right. |
00:35:14 |
Is that what you call a proposal? |
00:35:18 |
I love you. Always have. |
00:35:23 |
I want to marry you. |
00:35:36 |
Is that a yes? |
00:35:39 |
- Aye, that's a yes. |
00:36:23 |
- We'd best hurry. He'll be waiting. |
00:36:27 |
Where are you going? |
00:36:34 |
- What's that? |
00:36:56 |
Father. |
00:37:10 |
I will love you my whole life. |
00:37:13 |
You and no other. |
00:37:20 |
And I you. |
00:37:22 |
You and no other... for ever. |
00:40:53 |
When will I see ye again? Tonight? |
00:40:56 |
- I can't. |
00:40:58 |
My dad's growing suspicious. |
00:41:00 |
Would that have anything to do with... |
00:41:03 |
When? |
00:41:06 |
When? |
00:41:08 |
- Tonight. |
00:41:17 |
Look lively, Sergeant. |
00:41:31 |
What are you carrying, lassie? |
00:41:33 |
- That looks heavy. Can we help you? |
00:41:36 |
I'm not going to steal it... |
00:41:39 |
Oh. You remind me |
00:41:57 |
Hello, lassie. |
00:42:17 |
Keep quiet, Smythe. |
00:42:23 |
You bitch. |
00:42:32 |
You bitch. |
00:42:42 |
Are you all right? |
00:42:48 |
- Are you all right? |
00:43:00 |
- Can you ride? |
00:43:06 |
Come back here, you bastard! |
00:43:10 |
Ring the alarm. Help! |
00:43:14 |
Meet me at the grove. Ride! |
00:43:16 |
They're getting away. |
00:44:01 |
All right, you bitch. |
00:44:26 |
Murron. |
00:44:45 |
All of you know full well |
00:44:51 |
never to be too strict, too rigid, |
00:44:56 |
And, as a consequence, |
00:44:58 |
have we not learned to live together |
00:45:01 |
in relative peace and harmony? |
00:45:04 |
Huh? |
00:45:10 |
And this... day's lawlessness |
00:45:25 |
You leave me with little choice. |
00:45:35 |
An assault on the King's soldiers |
00:45:38 |
is the same as an assault |
00:45:58 |
Now, |
00:46:00 |
let this scrapper come to me. |
00:46:59 |
There. |
00:50:27 |
Corporal. Some archers on the tower. Now! |
00:50:40 |
Hold still, Father. |
00:50:42 |
You idiot, boy. |
00:52:09 |
- Father, are you all right? |
00:53:34 |
MacCaulich. |
00:53:51 |
Wallace. |
00:56:16 |
What are you waiting for, boy? |
00:56:19 |
Here. You can do it. I'll hold him down. |
00:56:24 |
Here. You can do it. I'll hold him down. |
00:56:27 |
Pour it straight in the wound, boy. |
00:56:30 |
I know it seems like |
00:56:36 |
Hold him. Hold him. Hold him. Now, |
00:56:40 |
let him go. |
00:56:46 |
All right? |
00:56:48 |
That'll wake you up in the morning, boy. |
00:56:51 |
- There's somebody coming. |
00:57:00 |
There's somebody coming. |
00:57:03 |
MacGregors. From the next glen. |
00:57:12 |
We heard about what was happening. |
00:57:14 |
We don't want you amerdans |
00:57:20 |
Go home. |
00:57:22 |
Some of us are in this. |
00:57:25 |
I can't help that now. |
00:57:29 |
Go home. |
00:57:31 |
We'll have no homes left |
00:57:36 |
- And they will. |
00:57:41 |
Welcome. |
00:58:12 |
Patrol returning, my Lord. |
00:58:42 |
So, what news? |
00:58:56 |
I have dispatched 100 soldiers to Lanark. |
00:59:00 |
Were they dressed like this? |
00:59:04 |
Actually, it was more like 50. |
00:59:07 |
Make it quick. |
00:59:11 |
Do you remember me? |
00:59:14 |
- I never did her any harm. It was my right. |
00:59:28 |
I'm William Wallace. |
00:59:31 |
And the rest of you will be spared. |
00:59:34 |
Go back to England. |
00:59:37 |
And tell them there that Scotland's |
00:59:44 |
Tell them Scotland is free. |
00:59:52 |
Burn it. |
01:00:28 |
The Scottish rebels |
01:00:32 |
and murdered the noble Lord. |
01:00:35 |
I heard. |
01:00:39 |
And how would you deal with this... brigand? |
01:00:42 |
Like any common thief. Have the |
01:00:50 |
Leave us. |
01:01:02 |
Wallace has already killed the magistrate |
01:01:08 |
Stand up. |
01:01:10 |
Stand up! |
01:01:12 |
In the morning, |
01:01:15 |
I depart for France to press our rights there. |
01:01:18 |
And I leave you here |
01:01:21 |
Understood? Is it? |
01:01:27 |
One day you will be a king. |
01:01:31 |
At least try to act like one. |
01:01:38 |
Get away from me. |
01:01:40 |
Convene my military council. |
01:02:24 |
There. |
01:02:27 |
After them. |
01:02:56 |
No point resisting. |
01:02:59 |
Where are the rest of you? Where's Wallace? |
01:03:15 |
- Father. |
01:03:19 |
A rebellion has begun. |
01:03:28 |
- Under whom? |
01:03:43 |
You will embrace this rebellion. |
01:03:46 |
Support it from our lands in the North. |
01:03:50 |
I will gain English favour by condemning it |
01:03:53 |
and ordering it opposed |
01:03:58 |
Sit down. Stay awhile. |
01:04:08 |
This Wallace... |
01:04:11 |
He doesn't even have a knighthood. |
01:04:16 |
And he inspires! |
01:04:18 |
And you wish to charge off |
01:04:23 |
- So would I. |
01:04:26 |
It is time... to survive. |
01:04:29 |
You're the 17th Robert Bruce. |
01:04:32 |
The 16 before you passed you land and title |
01:04:40 |
- Call a meeting of the nobles. |
01:04:43 |
Rightly so. They're as rich in English titles |
01:04:49 |
You admire this man... this William Wallace. |
01:04:52 |
Uncompromising men are easier to admire. |
01:04:55 |
He has courage. So does a dog. |
01:04:57 |
But it is exactly the ability to compromise |
01:05:03 |
And understand this: |
01:05:05 |
Edward Longshanks is the most ruthless king |
01:05:09 |
And none of us |
01:05:12 |
and nothing of Scotland will remain |
01:05:15 |
unless we are as ruthless. |
01:05:18 |
Give ear to our nobles. |
01:05:22 |
Knowing their minds |
01:05:24 |
is the key to the throne. |
01:05:43 |
Wait. Look. |
01:05:46 |
This is out and this is left. |
01:05:49 |
Carry on. |
01:07:34 |
You know, eventually, |
01:07:38 |
Heavy cavalry. Armoured horse. |
01:07:44 |
- He'll ride right over us. |
01:07:49 |
How no army had ever stood up |
01:07:52 |
- So what do we do? |
01:08:04 |
Or make spears. |
01:08:07 |
Hundreds of 'em. |
01:08:11 |
- That long? |
01:08:14 |
Some men are longer than others. |
01:08:16 |
Your mother been telling you |
01:08:21 |
Volunteers coming in. |
01:08:27 |
William Wallace. |
01:08:31 |
Stand up, man. I'm not the Pope. |
01:08:34 |
My name is Faudron. My sword is yours. |
01:08:37 |
- I brought you this... |
01:08:41 |
I brought you this. |
01:08:43 |
- My wife made it for you. |
01:08:50 |
Him! That can't be William Wallace. |
01:08:53 |
I'm prettier than this man. |
01:08:59 |
All right, Father. I'll ask him. |
01:09:05 |
If I risk my neck for you, |
01:09:07 |
will I get to kill Englishmen? |
01:09:09 |
Is your father a ghost |
01:09:13 |
To find his equal, |
01:09:16 |
Yes, Father. |
01:09:18 |
The Almighty says, |
01:09:21 |
- Mind your tongue. |
01:09:28 |
Smart enough to get a dagger |
01:09:32 |
That's my friend, Irishman. |
01:09:34 |
And the answer to your question is yes. |
01:09:39 |
Excellent. |
01:09:41 |
Stephen is my name. |
01:09:44 |
I'm the most wanted man on my island. |
01:09:46 |
Except I'm not on my island, of course. |
01:09:49 |
- More's the pity. |
01:09:51 |
- You mean Ireland? |
01:09:59 |
You're a madman. |
01:10:08 |
I've come to the right place, then. |
01:11:31 |
Sure, didn't the Almighty |
01:11:36 |
I didn't like him anyway. |
01:11:40 |
He wasn't right in the head. |
01:11:55 |
William. It's our runners. |
01:12:09 |
The English... are advancing |
01:12:13 |
- Do the nobles rally? |
01:12:17 |
But word has spread. The Highlanders |
01:12:21 |
Aye... In droves of hundreds... |
01:12:24 |
Are you ready for a war? |
01:12:43 |
- What news? |
01:12:46 |
- How many horse, then? |
01:12:48 |
- 300 heavy horse! |
01:12:51 |
Who was in command? |
01:12:55 |
- Aye, he did. |
01:12:58 |
We could still negotiate... |
01:13:04 |
What are they talking about? |
01:13:06 |
I cannot hear, but it doesn't look good. |
01:13:09 |
The nobles will negotiate. |
01:13:11 |
They do a deal... and we go home. |
01:13:14 |
If not... we charge. |
01:13:17 |
300 heavy horse. We've no chance. |
01:14:19 |
So many. |
01:14:25 |
I didn't come here to fight |
01:14:28 |
Then I'd have to work for them. |
01:14:30 |
Nor me. |
01:14:33 |
All right, lads. |
01:14:37 |
Let's go home. |
01:14:57 |
Stop, men! |
01:14:59 |
Do not flee. Wait until we've negotiated. |
01:15:56 |
- William Wallace! |
01:16:20 |
The Almighty says this is a fashionable fight. |
01:16:25 |
- Where is thy salute? |
01:16:31 |
This is our army. To join it, you give homage. |
01:16:34 |
I give homage to Scotland. |
01:16:36 |
And if this is your army, |
01:16:40 |
why does it go? |
01:16:42 |
We didn't come here to fight for them. |
01:16:48 |
Home. The English are too many. |
01:17:00 |
Sons of Scotland! I am William Wallace! |
01:17:04 |
- William Wallace is seven feet tall. |
01:17:09 |
He kills men by the hundred. |
01:17:11 |
And if he were here, he'd consume |
01:17:15 |
and lightning from his arse. |
01:17:21 |
I am William Wallace! |
01:17:25 |
And I see a whole army of my countrymen |
01:17:29 |
here in defiance of tyranny. |
01:17:35 |
You've come to fight as free men |
01:17:40 |
and free men you are! |
01:17:45 |
What will you do without freedom? |
01:17:49 |
Will you fight? |
01:17:55 |
Against that? No. |
01:17:57 |
We will run, and we will live. |
01:18:00 |
Aye. Fight and you may die. |
01:18:04 |
Run, and you'll live. |
01:18:07 |
At least a while. |
01:18:12 |
And dying in your beds, |
01:18:16 |
would you be willing to trade |
01:18:19 |
all the days from this day to that |
01:18:22 |
for one chance, just one chance, |
01:18:24 |
to come back here and tell our enemies |
01:18:27 |
that they may take our lives |
01:18:31 |
but they'll never take our freedom! |
01:19:01 |
They seem quite optimistic. |
01:19:04 |
Confrontation might be |
01:19:08 |
Nonetheless, we should |
01:19:11 |
The King's terms? |
01:19:15 |
My Lord, I think... |
01:19:17 |
All right. Offer them the terms. |
01:19:22 |
- They're coming out. Should we go to them? |
01:19:26 |
Aye. |
01:19:33 |
Fine speech. |
01:19:35 |
Now what do we do? |
01:19:39 |
Just be yourselves. |
01:19:41 |
- Where are you going? |
01:19:51 |
Well, we didn't get dressed up for nothing. |
01:19:57 |
Mornay, Lochlan, Craig. |
01:20:04 |
Here are the King's terms. |
01:20:07 |
Lead this army off the field |
01:20:14 |
and he will give you each estates in Yorkshire |
01:20:18 |
including hereditary title, |
01:20:23 |
- From which you will pay... |
01:20:26 |
Cheltham, this is William Wallace. |
01:20:31 |
From which you will pay the King... |
01:20:33 |
- I said I have an offer. |
01:20:37 |
From his King? Absolutely. |
01:20:40 |
Here are Scotland's terms. Lower your flags |
01:20:46 |
At every home you pass, beg forgiveness |
01:20:52 |
Do that, and your men shall live. |
01:20:55 |
Do it not and every one of you will die today. |
01:21:05 |
You are outmatched. |
01:21:09 |
In two centuries, no army has won without... |
01:21:12 |
I'm not finished! |
01:21:15 |
Before we let you leave |
01:21:18 |
your commander must cross that field, |
01:21:23 |
put his head between his legs |
01:21:38 |
That was less cordial than he was used to. |
01:21:40 |
You be ready and do exactly as I say. |
01:21:44 |
ride round behind our position, |
01:21:47 |
- We must not divide our forces. |
01:21:53 |
They'll think we run away? |
01:21:55 |
Take out their archers and meet in the middle. |
01:21:58 |
Right. Come on. |
01:22:24 |
Insolent bastard. |
01:22:29 |
Archers. |
01:22:39 |
Archers forward. |
01:23:38 |
You bastards. |
01:24:15 |
Loose. |
01:24:36 |
The Lord tells me He can get me out of |
01:25:02 |
Ready... Loose. |
01:25:22 |
Ride. |
01:25:27 |
See? Every Scot with a horse is fleeing. |
01:25:30 |
Our cavalry will ride them down like grass. |
01:25:35 |
Full attack. |
01:26:52 |
Steady... |
01:26:55 |
Hold. |
01:26:58 |
Hold. |
01:27:04 |
Hold. |
01:27:10 |
Hold. |
01:27:23 |
Now! |
01:28:11 |
- Send the infantry. |
01:28:14 |
You lead them. |
01:28:29 |
Charge. |
01:30:35 |
Retreat. |
01:31:11 |
Bastard. |
01:31:14 |
Come on. |
01:31:56 |
All right. |
01:32:27 |
Wallace. |
01:32:35 |
Wallace. |
01:33:10 |
I knight thee |
01:33:12 |
Sir William Wallace. |
01:33:18 |
Sir William, in the name of God |
01:33:20 |
we appoint thee guardian |
01:33:24 |
and thy captains as aides-de-camp. |
01:33:27 |
Stand and be recognised. |
01:33:42 |
Does anyone know his politics? |
01:33:43 |
No, but his weight with the commoners |
01:33:47 |
The Balliols will kiss his arse, |
01:33:58 |
Sir William. |
01:34:06 |
Inasmuch as you and your captains |
01:34:10 |
long known to support the Balliol clan, |
01:34:13 |
may we invite you to continue your support |
01:34:19 |
Damn the Balliol clan. |
01:34:24 |
Gentlemen. |
01:34:27 |
- Gentlemen. |
01:34:29 |
Halt. Wait. Are you prepared |
01:34:34 |
- You won't support the claim. |
01:34:37 |
Oh, no. |
01:34:40 |
- I demand recognition of these documents. |
01:34:46 |
Please, gentlemen. |
01:34:51 |
Quiet. Sir William. Where are you going? |
01:34:56 |
We have beaten the English. |
01:34:58 |
But they'll come back |
01:35:03 |
- What will you do? |
01:35:06 |
and defeat the English on their own ground. |
01:35:11 |
Invade? That's impossible. |
01:35:14 |
Why? Why is that impossible? |
01:35:17 |
You're so concerned with squabbling |
01:35:22 |
that you've missed |
01:35:26 |
There's a difference between us. |
01:35:29 |
You think the people of Scotland exist |
01:35:33 |
I think your position exists |
01:35:39 |
And I go to make sure that they have it. |
01:35:54 |
Wait. |
01:35:59 |
I respect what you said. But remember |
01:36:04 |
It's much to risk. |
01:36:06 |
And the common man that bleeds |
01:36:15 |
No. But from top to bottom, |
01:36:20 |
Its nobles share allegiance with England. |
01:36:23 |
- Its clans war with each other. |
01:36:28 |
If you make enemies on both sides |
01:36:32 |
- We all will. It's a question of how and why. |
01:36:37 |
But we need the nobles. |
01:36:39 |
- We need 'em? |
01:36:43 |
What does that mean, to be noble? |
01:36:45 |
Your title gives you claim to Scotland's |
01:36:51 |
They follow courage. |
01:36:53 |
Our people know you. |
01:36:56 |
And if you would just lead them to freedom... |
01:37:03 |
they'd follow you. |
01:37:06 |
And so would I. |
01:37:29 |
Damn it. My sodomite cousin the Prince |
01:37:34 |
Every town in northern England |
01:37:39 |
He advances. |
01:37:40 |
- To which town? |
01:37:44 |
Bring the provisions inside, |
01:37:48 |
Quickly. Bring in the provisions. |
01:38:21 |
Sir, we can get you out if you leave now. |
01:38:24 |
I will not tell my uncle I've lost him |
01:39:08 |
Come on. |
01:39:45 |
Make way for the King. |
01:39:56 |
It's not your fault. |
01:39:59 |
- Stand up to him. |
01:40:40 |
What news of the North? |
01:40:44 |
Nothing new, Your Majesty. |
01:40:48 |
I heard the word in France where I was |
01:40:54 |
The word, my son, is that |
01:41:01 |
And you have done nothing. |
01:41:03 |
I... have ordered conscription, sir, |
01:41:10 |
Excuse me, sire, but there's |
01:41:14 |
Come. |
01:41:24 |
- Leave us. |
01:41:29 |
- Wallace has sacked York. |
01:41:32 |
Wallace has sacked York. |
01:41:49 |
Sire... thy own nephew. |
01:41:54 |
What beast could do such a thing. |
01:41:58 |
If he can sack York |
01:42:03 |
he can invade Lower England. |
01:42:05 |
We will stop him. |
01:42:09 |
Who is this person who speaks to me |
01:42:15 |
- I have declared Phillip my High Counsellor. |
01:42:20 |
I am skilled in the arts of war |
01:42:25 |
Are you? |
01:42:27 |
Tell me... |
01:42:28 |
What advice would you offer |
01:43:05 |
I shall offer a truce |
01:43:09 |
and buy him off. |
01:43:12 |
But who will go to him? Not I. |
01:43:17 |
If I fell under the sword of that murderer |
01:43:20 |
it might be my head in a basket. |
01:43:24 |
And not... my gentle son. |
01:43:27 |
The mere sight of him would only encourage |
01:43:35 |
So whom do I send? |
01:43:42 |
Whom do I send? |
01:45:07 |
I'm dreaming. |
01:45:09 |
Yes, you are. |
01:45:13 |
And you must wake. |
01:45:23 |
I don't want to wake. |
01:45:26 |
I want to stay here with you. |
01:45:30 |
And I with you. |
01:45:33 |
But you must wake now. |
01:45:38 |
Wake up, William. |
01:45:40 |
Wake up. |
01:45:44 |
William, wake up... |
01:45:46 |
William. A royal entourage comes |
01:45:50 |
flying banners of truce |
01:45:52 |
and the standards of Longshanks himself. |
01:46:38 |
I am the Princess of Wales. |
01:46:40 |
I come as the King's servant |
01:46:44 |
To do what? |
01:46:47 |
To discuss the King's proposals. |
01:46:51 |
Will you speak with a woman? |
01:47:14 |
I hear you have been given the rank of knight. |
01:47:17 |
I have been given nothing. |
01:47:19 |
God makes men what they are. |
01:47:22 |
God made you the sacker of peaceful cities? |
01:47:25 |
The executioner of the King's nephew, |
01:47:30 |
York was the staging point |
01:47:35 |
That cousin hanged innocent Scots, even |
01:47:43 |
Longshanks did far worse |
01:48:07 |
You ask your King... to his face. Ask him. |
01:48:13 |
See if his eyes can convince you of the truth. |
01:48:24 |
Hamilton... Leave us. |
01:48:28 |
- My Lady? |
01:48:43 |
Let us talk plainly. |
01:48:45 |
You invade England. |
01:48:47 |
But you cannot complete the conquest |
01:48:53 |
The King desires peace. |
01:48:56 |
- Longshanks desires peace? |
01:49:00 |
He proposes that you withdraw your attack. |
01:49:03 |
In return he grants you title, |
01:49:06 |
which I am to pay to you personally. |
01:49:10 |
A lordship and titles, gold... |
01:49:15 |
- Peace is made in such ways. |
01:49:21 |
The last time Longshanks spoke of peace, |
01:49:25 |
Many Scottish nobles |
01:49:27 |
were lured by him, |
01:49:32 |
where he had them hanged. |
01:49:34 |
I was very young, but I remember |
01:49:43 |
I understand you have suffered. |
01:49:47 |
I know... about your woman. |
01:50:01 |
She was my wife. |
01:50:06 |
We married in secret because I would |
01:50:11 |
They killed her... to get to me. |
01:50:20 |
I've never spoken of it. |
01:50:23 |
I don't know why I tell you now, except... |
01:50:30 |
I see her strength in you. |
01:50:38 |
One day, you'll be a queen. |
01:50:42 |
And you must open your eyes. |
01:50:52 |
You tell your King |
01:50:54 |
that William Wallace will not be ruled |
01:51:32 |
Ah. My son's loyal wife returns |
01:51:38 |
- So he accepted our bribe? |
01:51:43 |
Then why does he stay? |
01:51:45 |
My scouts tell me that he has not advanced. |
01:51:48 |
He waits for you at York. |
01:51:50 |
He says he will attack no more towns |
01:51:56 |
Did he? |
01:51:58 |
The Welsh bowmen will not be detected |
01:52:02 |
arriving so far around his flank. |
01:52:08 |
The main force of our armies |
01:52:11 |
to the north of Edinburgh. |
01:52:13 |
Conscripts from Ireland |
01:52:18 |
to here. |
01:52:19 |
Welsh bowmen, troops from France, |
01:52:23 |
But they'd take weeks to assemble. |
01:52:26 |
I dispatched them... before I sent your wife. |
01:52:35 |
So our little ruse succeeded. Thank you. |
01:52:39 |
And while this upstart |
01:52:43 |
my forces will have arrived |
01:52:48 |
You spoke with this... |
01:52:52 |
Wallace in private? |
01:52:56 |
Tell me... |
01:52:59 |
What kind of man is he? |
01:53:02 |
A mindless barbarian. |
01:53:05 |
Not a king like you, my Lord. |
01:53:10 |
You may return to your embroidery. |
01:53:13 |
Humbly, my Lord. |
01:53:15 |
You brought back the money? |
01:53:21 |
No. I gave it to ease the suffering |
01:53:28 |
That's what happens |
01:53:33 |
Forgive me, sire. |
01:53:35 |
I thought that generosity might demonstrate |
01:53:44 |
My greatness |
01:53:46 |
will be better demonstrated |
01:53:50 |
and finds his country in ashes. |
01:53:57 |
William. |
01:53:59 |
There's riders approaching. |
01:54:08 |
A personal escort of the Princess. |
01:54:11 |
Aye. |
01:54:13 |
Must have made an impression. |
01:54:17 |
- Aye. |
01:54:56 |
It's true. The English ships |
01:54:59 |
I don't know about the Welsh yet, |
01:55:02 |
- I had to see it myself to believe it. |
01:55:08 |
I wouldn't worry about them. |
01:55:12 |
It's my island. |
01:55:14 |
Hamish, ride ahead to Edinburgh |
01:55:18 |
Right. Come on. |
01:55:23 |
- Your island? |
01:55:28 |
- We'll have to negotiate. |
01:55:31 |
Lords, Craig is right. |
01:55:33 |
This time our only option is to negotiate. |
01:55:47 |
My army has marched for many days. |
01:55:49 |
And we still have preparations to make, |
01:55:55 |
We require every soldier you can summon, |
01:56:01 |
And we need them now. |
01:56:04 |
With such a force arrayed against us, |
01:56:08 |
Other options? |
01:56:11 |
Don't you wish at least |
01:56:14 |
and barter a better deal with Longshanks |
01:56:17 |
- before you run? |
01:56:20 |
- We cannot defeat them. |
01:56:22 |
- Sir William. |
01:56:27 |
We won at Stirling, and still you quibble. |
01:56:32 |
We won at York |
01:56:34 |
If you'll no stand up with us now, |
01:56:44 |
If you are Scotsmen, |
01:56:46 |
I'm ashamed to call myself one. |
01:56:49 |
Please, Sir William, speak with me alone. |
01:56:54 |
I beg you. |
01:56:59 |
You've achieved so much, |
01:57:02 |
it looks like rage, not courage. |
01:57:05 |
It's well beyond rage. |
01:57:09 |
Help me. |
01:57:12 |
In the name of Christ, help yourselves. |
01:57:16 |
Now is our chance. Now. |
01:57:18 |
If we join, we can win. If we win, |
01:57:20 |
we'll have what none of us |
01:57:25 |
A country of our own. |
01:57:29 |
You're the rightful leader |
01:57:38 |
Unite us. |
01:57:43 |
Unite us. Unite the clans. |
01:57:53 |
- All right. |
01:58:01 |
This cannot be the way. |
01:58:03 |
You said yourself |
01:58:09 |
So how does it help us |
01:58:15 |
I gave him my word. |
01:58:25 |
I know it is hard. Being a leader is. |
01:58:31 |
My son... |
01:58:33 |
Son... |
01:58:35 |
Look at me. |
01:58:44 |
I cannot be King. |
01:58:46 |
You and you alone can rule Scotland. |
01:58:50 |
What I tell you, you must do. |
01:58:52 |
Not for me, not for yourself, |
01:58:55 |
but for your country. |
01:59:13 |
Right, lads, make way. Coming through. |
01:59:23 |
Make way, lads. |
01:59:30 |
- The Bruce is not coming, William. |
01:59:36 |
Mornay and Lochlan have come. |
01:59:40 |
So will the Bruce. |
01:59:44 |
Quite a lovely... gathering. |
01:59:50 |
Wouldn't you agree? |
01:59:55 |
- The archers are ready, sire. |
01:59:58 |
My scouts say their archers |
02:00:02 |
Arrows cost money. |
02:00:07 |
And send in the infantry and cavalry. |
02:00:09 |
Infantry. |
02:00:13 |
Cavalry. |
02:00:18 |
Advance. |
02:01:44 |
Ah, good to see ye this morning. |
02:01:51 |
Irish! |
02:01:53 |
Glad to have ye with us. Watch this. |
02:04:06 |
Mornay? Lochlan? |
02:04:08 |
I gave Mornay |
02:04:11 |
and matching estates in England. |
02:04:14 |
Lochlan turned... for much less. |
02:04:18 |
Archers. |
02:04:19 |
I beg your pardon, sire? |
02:04:25 |
Yes. |
02:04:26 |
But we'll hit theirs as well. We have reserves. |
02:04:32 |
Attack. |
02:04:34 |
Archers. |
02:05:13 |
Send in our reinforcements. |
02:05:16 |
Send in the rest. |
02:05:28 |
Bring me Wallace. Alive, if possible. |
02:05:32 |
Dead... just as good. |
02:05:36 |
Send us news of our victory. Shall we retire? |
02:07:04 |
Protect the King. |
02:09:10 |
Get up. |
02:09:15 |
Get up. |
02:09:18 |
- Get him out of here. |
02:09:25 |
Go. |
02:10:27 |
I'm dying. |
02:10:32 |
Let me be. |
02:10:40 |
No. |
02:10:42 |
You're going to live. |
02:10:46 |
I've lived long enough to live free. |
02:10:49 |
Proud... |
02:10:51 |
to see you become the man you are. |
02:10:59 |
I'm a happy man. |
02:12:50 |
I'm the one who's rotting. |
02:12:53 |
But I think your face looks graver than mine. |
02:13:01 |
Son... |
02:13:09 |
We must have alliance |
02:13:13 |
You achieved that. |
02:13:16 |
You saved your family |
02:13:19 |
In time, you will have |
02:13:24 |
Lands. |
02:13:27 |
Titles. Men. |
02:13:29 |
Power. Nothing. |
02:13:31 |
- Nothing? |
02:13:35 |
Men fight for me because if they do not |
02:13:40 |
and I starve their wives and their children. |
02:13:43 |
Those men |
02:13:45 |
who bled the ground red at Falkirk... |
02:13:50 |
They fought for William Wallace, and he |
02:13:58 |
And I took it from him when I betrayed him |
02:14:01 |
and I saw it in his face on the battlefield. |
02:14:04 |
And it's tearing me apart. |
02:14:06 |
Well, all men betray. All lose heart. |
02:14:10 |
I don't want to lose heart. |
02:14:16 |
I want to believe... |
02:14:19 |
as he does. |
02:14:27 |
I will never be on the wrong side again. |
02:15:20 |
No. |
02:16:19 |
Lord Craig, is it true about Mornay? |
02:16:21 |
Aye. Wallace rode into his bedchamber |
02:16:26 |
More of a liability now than ever he was. |
02:16:30 |
And there's no telling who'll be next. |
02:16:35 |
Maybe you. |
02:16:39 |
Maybe me. |
02:16:46 |
It doesn't matter. |
02:16:49 |
- I'm serious, Robert. |
02:17:05 |
Christ. Shit. |
02:17:08 |
Search the place. |
02:17:13 |
Lochlan. |
02:17:21 |
William Wallace killed 50 men. |
02:17:24 |
50 if it was one. |
02:17:26 |
100 men... with his own sword. |
02:17:31 |
Moses through the Red Sea. |
02:18:07 |
His legend grows. |
02:18:09 |
It will be worse than before. |
02:18:11 |
He rallies new volunteers in every Scottish |
02:18:17 |
They're sheep. Mere sheep. |
02:18:22 |
Easily dispersed if we strike the shepherd. |
02:18:24 |
Very well. |
02:18:28 |
Pick a flock of your finest assassins |
02:18:32 |
My Lord, Wallace is renowned |
02:18:40 |
If what Lord Hamilton tells me is correct |
02:18:44 |
he warmed to our future Queen |
02:18:49 |
So we'll dispatch her |
02:18:53 |
My Lord, |
02:18:56 |
or her life be put in jeopardy. |
02:18:58 |
My son would be most distressed by that. |
02:19:03 |
But in truth if she were to be killed, |
02:19:05 |
we would soon find the King of France |
02:19:13 |
You see... |
02:19:15 |
As King, you must find |
02:19:47 |
It's William Wallace, sure. |
02:19:50 |
And he's given up his sword. Be ready. |
02:21:34 |
My Lady. |
02:21:39 |
I received your message. |
02:21:54 |
This is... the second time |
02:22:01 |
Why? |
02:22:02 |
There will be a new shipment |
02:22:06 |
Foods and weapons. They will... |
02:22:08 |
No, stop. |
02:22:12 |
Why do you help me? |
02:22:20 |
Why do you help me? |
02:22:23 |
Because of the way |
02:24:19 |
Just when we thought all hope was lost, |
02:24:21 |
our noble saviours have arrived. |
02:24:27 |
Off with their hoods. |
02:24:33 |
Sir William, we come to seek a meeting. |
02:24:36 |
Well, what's the point? |
02:24:40 |
- You've all sworn loyalty to Longshanks. |
02:24:44 |
Every man of us is ready |
02:24:47 |
So let the council swear publicly. |
02:24:50 |
We cannot. |
02:24:53 |
Others think you'll pay them Mornay's wages. |
02:24:58 |
Meet us two days from now. Pledge us |
02:25:02 |
- Scotland will be one. |
02:25:04 |
- You mean us and you. |
02:25:08 |
I mean this. |
02:25:12 |
It's the pledge of Robert the Bruce. |
02:25:25 |
You do know it's a trap. Tell him. |
02:25:27 |
If the Bruce wanted to kill you, |
02:25:30 |
Aye. |
02:25:31 |
I know. I saw. |
02:25:33 |
All right, leaving him aside, |
02:25:37 |
Scheming bastards who couldn't agree on |
02:25:42 |
Look at us. |
02:25:45 |
We've got to try. We can't do this alone. |
02:25:49 |
Joining the nobles is our only hope. |
02:25:54 |
What? |
02:25:56 |
Nothing. |
02:25:59 |
- I don't want to be a martyr. |
02:26:02 |
I want to live. |
02:26:04 |
I want a home, and children. And peace. |
02:26:07 |
- Do ye? |
02:26:09 |
I've asked God for those things. |
02:26:14 |
- It's just a dream, William. |
02:26:18 |
Well, then, |
02:26:23 |
We've lived that dream. |
02:26:25 |
Your dream isn't about freedom. |
02:26:28 |
You're doing this to be a hero |
02:26:31 |
I don't think she sees me. I know she does. |
02:26:35 |
And your father sees you, too. |
02:26:47 |
Jesus. |
02:26:56 |
Shall I come with you? |
02:26:59 |
No. I'll go alone. |
02:27:04 |
- I'll see you after. |
02:27:12 |
Sooner rather than later, I hope. |
02:27:21 |
- He won't come. |
02:27:24 |
I know he will. |
02:27:40 |
My Lord. He approaches. |
02:28:26 |
No! |
02:28:33 |
Stay out of it, Robert. |
02:28:36 |
Get away. |
02:28:42 |
The Bruce is not to be harmed, |
02:28:53 |
Father! |
02:29:00 |
You rotting bastard! |
02:29:04 |
Why? |
02:29:10 |
Longshanks required Wallace. |
02:29:14 |
So did our nobles. |
02:29:16 |
That was the price of your crown. |
02:29:19 |
Die. |
02:29:22 |
I want you to die. |
02:29:24 |
Soon enough I'll be dead. |
02:29:26 |
- And you'll be King. |
02:29:31 |
You're not a man. |
02:29:34 |
And you're not my father. |
02:29:40 |
You're my son |
02:29:42 |
and you have always known my mind. |
02:29:47 |
- You deceived me. |
02:29:51 |
In your heart, you always knew |
02:29:58 |
At last, you know what it means to hate. |
02:30:06 |
Now you're ready to be a king. |
02:30:10 |
My hate... |
02:30:12 |
will die with you. |
02:30:19 |
William Wallace, |
02:30:25 |
- Against whom? |
02:30:29 |
Have you anything to say? |
02:30:32 |
Never in my whole life |
02:30:36 |
did I swear allegiance to him. |
02:30:39 |
It matters not. He is your King. |
02:30:45 |
Confess and you may receive a quick death. |
02:30:49 |
Deny and you must be purified by pain. |
02:30:52 |
Do you confess? |
02:30:56 |
Do you confess? |
02:31:04 |
Then on the morrow |
02:31:20 |
- Your Highness. |
02:31:22 |
- The King ordered... |
02:31:26 |
Who do you think will rule this kingdom? |
02:31:29 |
Now open this door. |
02:31:33 |
Your Majesty. |
02:31:40 |
Come on, filth. Up on your feet. |
02:31:42 |
Stop it. Leave me. |
02:31:47 |
I said leave me. |
02:32:02 |
My Lady. |
02:32:04 |
Sir... |
02:32:07 |
I come to beg you... |
02:32:10 |
to confess all and swear allegiance |
02:32:16 |
Will he show mercy to my country? |
02:32:19 |
Mercy is to die quickly, |
02:32:22 |
perhaps even live in the Tower. |
02:32:24 |
In time, who knows what can happen? |
02:32:28 |
If you can only live... |
02:32:35 |
If I swear to him... |
02:32:37 |
then all that I am is dead already. |
02:32:50 |
You will die. It will be awful. |
02:32:52 |
Every man dies. |
02:32:57 |
Not every man really lives. |
02:33:06 |
Drink this. |
02:33:08 |
It will dull your pain. |
02:33:11 |
No. It will numb my wits. |
02:33:13 |
And I must have them all. |
02:33:16 |
For if I'm senseless or if I wail |
02:33:19 |
then Longshanks will have broken me. |
02:33:22 |
I can't bear the thought of your torture. |
02:33:25 |
Take it. |
02:33:31 |
All right. |
02:34:20 |
I have come |
02:34:22 |
to beg for the life of William Wallace. |
02:34:27 |
You're quite taken with him, aren't you? |
02:34:30 |
I respect him. |
02:34:33 |
At worst, he was a worthy enemy. |
02:34:35 |
Show mercy, O thou great King, |
02:34:49 |
Even now |
02:34:52 |
you are incapable of mercy. |
02:35:01 |
And you... |
02:35:07 |
To you, that word is as unfamiliar as love. |
02:35:11 |
Before he lost his powers of speech |
02:35:13 |
he told me his one comfort was that |
02:35:37 |
You see? |
02:35:40 |
Death comes to us all. |
02:35:52 |
But before it comes to you, |
02:35:55 |
know this: |
02:35:57 |
Your blood dies with you. |
02:36:02 |
A child who is not of your line |
02:36:08 |
Your son will not sit long on the throne, |
02:36:51 |
I'm so afraid. |
02:37:00 |
Give me the strength... |
02:37:03 |
to die well. |
02:37:29 |
Here he comes. |
02:38:59 |
Now behold the awful price of treason. |
02:39:08 |
Or fall to your knees now, |
02:39:13 |
declare yourself the King's loyal subject |
02:39:17 |
and beg his mercy |
02:39:26 |
and you shall have it. |
02:39:39 |
Rope. |
02:39:53 |
Raise him. |
02:40:03 |
Stretch him. |
02:40:06 |
That's it. |
02:40:09 |
Stretch him. |
02:40:47 |
Pleasant, yes? |
02:40:52 |
Rise to your knees. |
02:40:54 |
Kiss the royal emblem on my cloak |
02:40:57 |
and you will feel no more. |
02:41:41 |
Rack him. |
02:42:37 |
Enough? |
02:43:31 |
It can all end... |
02:43:33 |
right now. |
02:43:36 |
Peace. |
02:43:38 |
Bliss. |
02:43:40 |
Just say it. |
02:43:43 |
Cry out... |
02:43:45 |
"Mercy." |
02:43:56 |
Mercy. |
02:43:57 |
Mercy. |
02:44:05 |
Cry out. |
02:44:13 |
Just say it. "Mercy." |
02:44:40 |
- Mercy, William. Mercy. |
02:44:50 |
The prisoner wishes to say a word. |
02:45:14 |
Freedom! |
02:47:09 |
After the beheading, |
02:47:12 |
William Wallace's body was torn to pieces. |
02:47:18 |
His head was set on London Bridge. |
02:47:22 |
His arms and legs |
02:47:25 |
sent to the four corners of Britain |
02:47:28 |
as a warning. |
02:47:30 |
It did not have the effect |
02:47:36 |
And I, Robert the Bruce, |
02:47:39 |
rode out to pay homage |
02:47:44 |
and accept his endorsement of my crown. |
02:47:48 |
I hope you've washed your arse this morning. |
02:47:51 |
It's about to be kissed by a king. |
02:48:23 |
Come. Let's get it over with. |
02:48:38 |
Stop. |
02:48:57 |
You have bled with Wallace! |
02:49:05 |
Now bleed with me. |
02:49:47 |
Wallace! |
02:50:14 |
In the year of our Lord 1314, |
02:50:18 |
patriots of Scotland, |
02:50:22 |
charged the fields of Bannockburn. |
02:50:26 |
They fought like warrior poets. |
02:50:28 |
They fought like Scotsmen |
02:50:32 |
and won their freedom. |
