Feelings about Braveheart
"Liberty, love!
李沛乾The two I need.
For my love I will sacrifice life,
for liberty I will sacrifice my love.”
——also近义词by Shandor Petefi.
This is the poem that appeared to my mind after watching the Braveheart, an Americam movie last for three hours.
The re-relea of Braveheart was a welcome reminder of a movie derving of Oscar accolades. In this, my cond viewing of Mel Gibson’s three-hour historical epic, the pervasive theme of freedom once again struck a chord in my heart.
Firstly ,I will give a guide to the Braveheart.In my opinion,this film includes veral parts.
Plot of the film
Braveheart tells us the story of how a kid who loss his brave father in battle against independence grew up ,and fought against English force and finally died as a hero. The first time I watched this film,I think it’s very bloody and violent with war through the whole film, showing how battles were fought in that time period. But when I watched it for the cond time,I begin to under the deeper meaning of it.
The King of Scotland has died without an heir and the King of England, a ruthless pagan known as Edward the Longshanks, has ized the throne himlf. 吉他谱子Enlglish claimed to make peace with Scotland. However, William,as a little boy, saw his clansmen’s bodies hanging from the rafters.
William Wallace returned to Scotland after living away from his homeland for many years. At first,he just wanted to live in quiet. But afer English granted the nobles of Scots prima noctes——first night. One girl inhabiting Scotland who was married was insulted by nobles at the night of her wedding,becau of the xual rights they hav.And this ca makes the tragedy begin.

In order to protect her chastity, she'd rather die than be ravaged by the soldiers.Wallace lost his lover,and determined to vanquish the greater English forces. He wants to revenge Murron,and his father and brother,as well as all of his clansmen.Wallace’s courage and passion unite his people in Braveheart.
Wallace eks the assistance of Scottish nobles,but he was betrayed by a Scottish Knight and was captured by English Soldier.Wallace was declared guilty and was taken from Westminster Hall stripped naked and dragged by a hor through town.

He was castrated, and dimboweled publicly. He was strangled, emasculated and eviscerated. He was then beheaded. His head was later placed on a pike on London Bridge. He was drawn and quartered and his limbs were nt to other cities.
Love
Except of war,love and freedom are both the an integrated and permanent theme of film.
The love between the two,William Wallace and Murron.The girl is very beautiful,and the scene gives me enjoyment of romance. When Wallace returns to his village in Scotland he is reacquainted with Murron. I am going to cry when William said,“I love you, always have.” They fell in love and cretly marry. It is Wallace’s deep and lasting love for Murron that spurs him to fight for Scotland’s freedom.

William’s cond love with Wallace and Princess Isabelle.My respect for Princess Isabella was cemented upon viewing her efforts to not only save Wallace and his followers from certain doom, but to realize that she recognized the nature of William’s mission. She finally began to understand that Wallace motivation for his deeds of stunning courage was his unquenchable desire for the righteous freedom of his people.
Culture
In this movie, it reflects the culture of Europe. We can e many famous building of Great
Britain,like London Bridge. Braveheart was the product of a very different cultural climate,both in Scotland and in Hollywood.
a.Meaning of the national flower—thistle(蓟)
At the funeral of William’s father and brother,little Murron picked a purple flower and ran to Wallace's side, pull back his sleeve, without saying anything, just give the flower to the bereaved boy.Wallace silently took contains the warmth and care of the purple thistle, eyes filled with tears and. If we don’t the culture of Scotland,we won’t understand the deeper meaning of it. Seemed ordinary, this kind of flower conveys profound cultural connotation--- thistle is the national flower of Scotland. The strong vitality of the flower also symbolizes the heroic and indomitable Scottish.I can hear that little Murron was telling William to be brave.
On the other hand, thistle also has the meaning of revenge.This scene happened when they were children has paved the way of the fighting and the theme of the film---to revenge his father, his lover, his people. When adult William saw Murron again, he took o
ut her purple thistle.Although already withered,the color was still bright and clear. It is not only a witness of their love, but also implies a quiet life on the surface of the William,with heart still remember to revenge.
b.Bagpipes and Scotland skirt
和珅书法Bagpipes and Scotland skirt are the nation's unique cultural symbols. The melody is beautiful, sometimes of great momentum, sometimes as if weeping and complaining, sometimes lively, in "brave heart", whistle passion tragic songs of freedom.
