    From The Telegraph today -

    “Braveheart, Mel Gibson’s Oscar-winning portrayal of the life of William Wallace, is 25 years old this year. It continues to top the lists of the most historically inaccurate films ever made. How much does that matter and why? In this wonderful piece, Tom Fordy looks not just at what the film got wrong, but what it can tell us about the Nineties, and how Braveheart might have altered British history.

    It may have been inaccurate in many ways, but it's still in my top twenty favourite films, more for the battle scenes than anything else, which they did very well indeed.

    How many of us would have even heard of Wallace if not for this film?

    I would like to see the wannabe aryan warrior against the Jewish Jew killer kissalot in a cage fight! That would be something to stay up late to watch! Hahaha.....

    Was trying to find out the height of kissalot, no luck......Gibson is 177cm....not even that tiny.....

    Anyone have a guess on kissalot size?
