Class BattlesĪlthough it was rather soon in history for there to be an actual three tier class system with associated biases and rivalries, there is a definite divide in the film between noblemen and their "subjects." It was this divide that generally caused Scottish noblemen to err on the side of the English monarch.
THEME FROM BRAVEHEART MOVIE
The movie is based on historical fact so the theme also follows history in the way that this antipathy and hatred was exhibited. They played both sides against the middle, which won them favors from the King, but also won them a target on their back when it came to William Wallace and his supporters. However, there was also division when it came to the issue in that many Scottish noblemen wanted to remain under English rule because they felt that it was personally advantageous. The Scots largely rejected English rule, disliking the monarch and feeling that they came off rather badly in most of the deals done between the two nations. This still continues today although the differences are fought at the ballot box rather than in hand to hand combat. It's fair to say that the two nations did not particularly care for each other and the Scots in particular wanted, and demanded, their independence from the English crown. The key theme of the film is the antipathy felt by the Scots towards the English. We are thankful for their contributions and encourage you to make your own.
