Indeed. I enjoy Braveheart, but consider it mythology akin to The Adventures of Robin Hood. Yes, the battle scenes are realistic and bloody, but the myth of William Wallace is shamelessly exploited, at the expense of Robert the Bruce, and even to the point where Wallace supposedly knocks up Princess Isabelle, who (from memory) would have been a baby (or barely a child) at the time.
