BRAVEHEART
“Braveheart,” a period film about the Scottish hero William Wallace, is known for its epic battles and powerful performances. However, even this beloved film has its share of historical inaccuracies. One notable error involves the use of kilts, which weren’t worn by Scottish warriors until several centuries after the film’s 1280 setting. This anachronism, though minor, is a reminder of the challenges filmmakers face when trying to accurately recreate historical periods.
Despite these errors, “Braveheart” remains a cinematic masterpiece that continues to be celebrated for its powerful storytelling and memorable performances. The film’s attention to detail and realistic portrayal of medieval Scotland have earned it a place in the historical epic canon, making it a must-watch for fans of the genre.
