Dear unsigning Harvey researcher,
.....You must have buried yourself in familytrees----
Braveheart is the title of a movie with Mel Gibson in the title role.
It is a falsified version of the story of William Wallace who started
one of the uprisings of the Scots against the English. It is a
rollicking good story BUT like Shakespeare-----unreliable as far as
the facts are concerned.
I think Mel Gibson even got an Oscar for his involvement with this movie.
Hope this enlightens you,
Leo van de Pas
