@spottyfox Now I want a Robert the Bruce banner... #Braveheart

Interesting historical video.

My UK followers will know that the SNP used the Mel Gibson film "Braveheart" as a recruiting tool and to stir up anti-English feeling. With some success I may say.

Here Gibson at the Scottish premier of the film and, to say the least, he's not happy at being used in this way.

OTD in 1290, England’s King Edward I ordered the expulsion of all Jews from England. Many never made it out alive, others fled to France, the Netherlands, and Scotland, which soon began its Wars of Scottish Independence against the same ‘Edward Longshanks’ made famous by the movie #Braveheart. 👉 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edict_of_Expulsion

It can't be denied, Braveheart is a very well-made and effective movie. Play that on TV a few times in the run up to any future Scottish independence referendum, and there'll be a free Scotland before you can say "Hung, drawn and quartered".

@samatari2 eh al 7 ho osato, ma di giorno. c'era una grande piscina, tra l'altro piena (insolito) e pulitissima, ma tutto intorno l'abbandono, nessun vivente a parte me e le porte della terrazza che scricchiolavano al vento. Sono andata via subito. #braveheart

@HisAndHearsePress
The #GreatHighlandBagpipe is from #Scotland. That is the one you see most often in parades. The #Uilleann #bagpipes are Irish, and you see those most often played by #Irish folk musicians.

The GHBs require the player to constantly blow up the bag. It only has nine notes, so they can't play tunes with rests/breaks or >9 notes in them. Their HUGE volume is actually from on *tiny* wooden reed, built like an oboe reed, that's about the length of a U.S. quarter.

The Uilleann pipes can play a wealth of notes. Their bag is kept inflated using a kind of bellows under the left arm of the #bagpiper.

The composer for the film #Braveheart did not realize the musical limitations, so the #music he wrote for the film could not be played on #Scottish pipes. The theme you "see" the #piper playing in the film is actually being played on a Uilleann #bagpipe.

Be sure to check out this video, where #AllyThePiper demonstrates how bagpipes work.

“Soy William Walace, y el resto quedáis perdonados. Volved a Inglaterra y decidles a todos que los hijos y las hijas de Escocia ya no son vuestros. Decidles que Escocia es libre.”
- William Walace, Braveheart (1995)

I walked in on the end of the movie Braveheart where William Wallace gets drawn and quartered. I have never seen this movie in its entirety.
I was well aware of the old method of drawing and quartering because I had a fascination with Henry VIII starting when I was about 11. I was a weird kid.

I also remember thinking when I was kid that “Braveheart” sounded like a Care Bear. I’m sorry, Scottish people.

I was pondering films like #Braveheart and #Argo (of course, there's so many more) and like..... why is it so hard to make historically accurate movies?

We know what happened. We have the documentation.

Are we just that lazy? Do we really need added drama and made up details to make a movie interesting? Isn't real life enough?

Inquiring minds .....

The Road Warrior
Mel Gibson, who I made a drink for that my crew at the old Starbucks on Robison Street in Vancouver called a ‘Mel’ . I was a huge fan of his work, but wanted to let the man sip his triple shot grande mocha in peace.

That French critics refer to an ahistorical drama as "our Braveheart" tells us all we need to know about its quality.

Wenn ich dieses #Video
https://chaos.social/@fff/109699105221774862
von den #Polizisten sehe, die erst einen euphorisierenden Schrei loslassen und dann wie nicht gescheit mit erhobenem Schlagstock in die #Menschenmenge rennen, erinnert mich das an Szenen wie aus #Braveheart oder #Asterix und #Obelix. Ist das tatsächlich die Art, wie die Polizei zukünftig wahrgenommen werden will? Als #Krieger des #Staates? Statt Freund & Helfer dann Feind & Kämpfer?

Zenden ze nu op @tv_eclips De Leeuw van Vlaanderen uit, geregisseerd door Hugo Claus en Jan Decleir in een hoofdrol 😱! Schandalig toch hoe ze dat Vlaams nationalisme opkloppen 😉! #verhaalvanvlaanderen @de_NVA
