Watch the movie, but remember it isn’t historically correct, so if you really want to know what happened to Wallace, read a history book.

It’s my favourite movie ever!!!!!!
you obviously have a history homework, I advise you to watch the movie cuz it’s a great one but if you need real facts, read a history book.
Braveheart, along with all Hollywood movies, is historically innacurate.
