勇敢的心英文读后感
In
times
of
anguish,
we
can
find
solace
in
art.
A
great
movie can always offer you some kind of
power to face your
own
problem.
And
this
one
did
a
good
job.
It
brings
us
a
tough hero, William
Wallace
,
leader of the
Scottish resistance
forces
against
England’s
rule.
Although he
is
dead at
last,
his spirit had led his people to fight and get
freedom. This
meaningful
work
has
touched
so
many
hearts
by
its
significance theme and content.
The
theme
of
this
work
can
mainly
be
seen
over
the
growing
image of William Wallace. First we see his
childhood.
His
father
was
killed
by
the
English
intruder,
which
may
definitely
leave
a
scar
on
his
heart.
With
this
great
hatred,
when he saw his wife
killed by the enemies, everything stuck
deep
down
his
heart
was
released
all
of
a
sudden
with
magnificent power. So in the fighting
scene, we see a warrior
dared his life
waving the sword. It is a common wonder where
his courage is from. Let’s say,
if it is an ordinary person,
who lost
his parents since he’s very young, he may
not
1
have the
conviction to grow up as a hero. However, heroes
are
as heroes are.
Wallace's
revolution
was
significant,
seen
from
many
aspects, with great obstacles from his
countrymen, as well as
enemies.
Many
Scottish
nobles
lent
him
only
grudging
support
as
most
of
them
were
more
concerned
with
wealth
and
titles than the freedom of the country. In fact,
the Scottish
leaders
are
in
favor
of
revolt-or
not-depending
on
English
bribes.
Wallace,
by
comparison,
is
a
man
of
honor,
incorruptible and
righteous. He was knighted and proclaimed
‘guardian and high protector of
Scotland’
,
but
as much as he railed
against the Scottish nobles, submitted to
Edward I, King of England, he was
astonished and in shock to
discover the
treachery of the leading Scot contender for the
throne;Robert,
the
Earl
of
Bruce;to
whom
he
confided,
‘The people would follow you, if
you would only lead
them.’
Sophie
Marceau
is
exquisite
as
the
distressed
princess
Isabella
of
France
who
ends
up
falling
in
love
with
Wallace,
warning
him
out
of
several
traps.
Catherine
McCormack is a
stunning beauty who ignites Wallace’s
revolution. Patrick McGoohan is
chilling, brutal, and vicious as
the
ruthless
Edward
I,
known
by
the
nickname
‘Long
2
shanks.’ This king remains simply
the embodiment of
evil.
While
Angus
McFadyen
moves
as
a
nobleman
torn
between his conscience and political
aspiration, and Brendan
Gleeson brings
strength and humor to his role as the robust
Hamish,
David
O’Hara
is
very
effective
as
the
crazy
Irishman who provides much of the
film’s comic relief
from even the
most tensed moments. Mel Gibson has reason
to be proud of this work. It is a
motion picture that dares to be
excessive…
Gibson
presents
passionately
the
most
spaciously
impressive
battles
(
yet
staged
for
films
)
even
excessively,
and
it
is
his
passion
and
excess
that
make
the
motion
picture
great.
The
horror
and
futility
of
massed
hand-to-hand combats
are exciting rather repulsive. It is epic
film-making
at
its
glorious
best.
This
movie
focuses
on
the
human
side
of
Wallace,
a
character
that
is
so
immense,
so
intelligent,
and
so
passionate,
exploring
the
definitions
of
honor
and
nobility,
pushing
us
to
follow
the
hero
into
his
struggle
against
injustice
and
oppression.
And
this
is
the
power of a hero.
Also, this movie is a red-blooded
battle epic. Not much is
known
about
Wallace,
known
as
Braveheart,
except
that
according
to
an
old
epic
poem,
he
unified
the
clans
of
3
Scotland
and won
famous
battles against the
English
before
being captured,
tortured and executed as a traitor.
Wallace cried, as his body was
stretched on the rack. That
isn’t
exactly
based
on
fact
(
the
concept
of
personal
freedom was a
concept not much celebrated in
1300
)
,
but it
doesn’t stop
Gibson from making it his dying cry. It fits
in
with
the
whole
glorious
sweep
of
Braveheart,
which
is
an
action epic
with the spirit of the Hollywood swordplay
classics
and the grungy ferocity of
“
The Road
Warrior
”
。
What people
are
going
to
remember
from
the
film
are
the
battle
scenes,
which are frequent,
bloody and violent. Just from a technical
point of view, Braveheart does a
brilliant job of massing men
and
horses
for
large-
scale
warfare
on
film.
Gibson
deploys
what look like
thousands of men on horseback, as well as foot
soldiers, archers and dirty tricks
specialists, and yet his battle
sequences don’t turn into
confusing crowd scenes: We
understand
the strategy, and we enjoy the tactics even while
we doubt some of them.
Gibson
is
not
filming
history
here,
but
myth.
William
Wallace
may
have
been
a
real
person,
but
Braveheart
owes
more
to
Prince
Valiant,
Rob
Roy
and
Mad
Max.
Once
we
understand that this is
not a solemn historical reconstruction
4
(
and
that
happens
pretty
fast
)
,
we
accept
dialogue
that
might
otherwise
have
an
uncannily
modern
tone,
as
when
Braveheart issues his
victory ultimatum to the English. In the
film,
Wallace's
chief
antagonist
is
King
Edward
I,
played
by
Patrick McGoohan with sly cunning; he
is constantly giving his
real political
interpretation of events, and that's all the more
amusing since he’s usually
guessing in a wrong way.
Edward’s
son, the Prince of Wales, is a very weak
role
who
marries
a
French
woman
only
for
political
reasons
and he’s a gay himself. Even his
father doesn’t
like him.
“
I may have to conceive the
child myself!
”
the king
says, and indeed,
under the medieval concept, or
“
first
night,
”
nobles
were allowed a first chance to sleep with the
wives of
Scottish
men.
The
Princess,
played
by
the
French
actress
Sophie
Marceau,
does
not
much
admire
her
husband,
who
spends
most
of
his time
hanging about moon-
eyed with his
best
friend
(
until
the
king,
in
a
fit
of
impatience,
hurls
the
friend out the castle
window
)
。
Edward, smarting from defeats,
dispatches the Princess to
offer his
terms to Braveheart, but soon she’s spilling
all
the state secrets,
“
because of the way you look
at me.
”
The
Princess is the second love in
Wallace’s life; the first, his
