Bravehearth is a film, that tells the history of William Wallace, in the 1280 dC., in Scotland:

The king of Scotland had died without a son, then, the England's king (Edward, the Longshanks) is a cruel pagan. Scotland nobles, fought for the crown, but Longshanks invite the nobles for a truth.
William's father dies in a fight, and then, in a dream, his father talks to him: "Your hearth is free, have the courage to follow it". He said it, because William's uncle, had to take William with him, but William didn't like it, but finally follows it.
Then, William's uncle, teaches him; "First, learn to use the mind and the hearth, then I gonna teach you, to use the sword".

Then, the king of England son, marries King of France's daughter, but, they weren't in love.

After that, the English Soldiers attacked Morron, and William defended her.
Finally, the English soldiers killed her, and William attacked the soldiers and the noble that had killed her.

Another farmers like to help William for his fight, and Robert Bruce (a Scotish noble), likes to help it too, but his father tells him to support William, with the north lands, but at the same time, his father likes to gain favour of the English king with supporting him, with the South lands, but, finally, Robert prefers to be with William.

Then, they do a war against England, and William wons. They won it, because all the nobles were together.

William became a noble, because he won the war. After that, he tells to the other nobles to stand together, and invade England, for the Scottish freedom.

The Scottish man invaded the city of York (North of England).

Then, the King returns of France, and he sends the princess, to negotiate with William, but he didn't like to negotiate, but at same time, he tells the true story to the princess.

I think that the best joke and the funniest is Adria's Joke:

Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson go on a camping trip. After a good dinner and a bottle of wine, they retire for the night, and go to sleep.
Some hours later, Holmes wakes up and nudges his faithful friend. “Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see.”
“I see millions and millions of stars, Holmes”.
“And what do you deduce from that?”
Watson ponders for a minute. “Well:

·Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and billions of planets.
·Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo.
·Horologically, I deduce that the time is a quarter past three.
·Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.

But what does it tell you, Holmes?”
Holmes is silent for a moment.
“Watson, you idiot! Someone has stole our tent!”

Jaja!!!!, the joke is very funny but adria's foto NOT!!!!!! EEEEERRRRGGGGG...!!!
