Mel Gibson plays William Wallace who leads the scots in a brutal rebelion against the english after his wife is killed and his homestead burnt to the ground.
Robert the Bruce, the leader of the Scotish clans is torn between following Wallace into battle as he leads the clans on a victorious campaign against the english armies that takes land from the english as far south as York (thats nearly half of england for non english readers)
Will Robert the Bruce lead the clans and help Wallace and the rebelion conquer england or will he fall into line and stand by as the English king subdues the rebelious armies.
Visible crew/equipment: During the "full attack" at the start of the Battle of Stirling Bridge, Wallace repeatedly shouts, "Hold," and in the wideshot right before Wallace finally shouts, "Now!" as the horses gallop towards the right side of the screen, we can see a white car at the left side of the screen.

English Officer: I hope you've washed your arse today - it's about to be kissed by a king.
