Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Who plays William Wallace?

Answer: Mel Gibson

Brian Cox plays his uncle Argyle Wallace. Sean Lawlor plays his father Malcolm Wallace. Sandy Nelson plays his brother John Wallace. Argyle comes for William after the funeral of father and brother and takes on educating William. Gibson, an action hero type actor known for his roles in "Mad Max" and "Lethal Weapon" movies, also directed this movie for which he won the Oscar for Best Director of 1995.
2. William attends the wedding in Lanach. He throws a rock at someone. Who does he throw the rock at?

Answer: His childhood friend

All were at the wedding, and, much as he would have wanted to, he did not throw at the English Lord. Nor would he have thrown at the groom or father of bride. He threw at his childhood buddy, Hamish, who later said, "I shoudda remembered the rocks."
3. Murron gives William a flower at his father's funeral. William returns the same flower to Murron when he is an adult. What kind of flower is it?

Answer: Thistle

William returns the flower to show his love for Murron and asks her to marry him. He proclaims that "he has always loved her and no other". The thistle is the national flower of Scotland.
4. William and Murron are secretly married. An English sergeant tries to rape her and is stopped by William. William and Murron try to escape from the English. William is successful but Murron isn't. What happens to Murron?

Answer: She has her throat slit by the Magistrate.

The whole scene shows the subjugation of the Scots. Murron was attacked and would have been raped except for William. What happens? She is executed.
5. As Wallace's fame increases, warriors flock to his banner every day. One day two volunteers appear and wish to join his army. One of them is carrying on a conversation as if he were talking to God? Who is this apparently crazy man?

Answer: Steven of Ireland

Stephen later saves Wallace's life while hunting. He kills an assassin and later tells William that he didn't like the man and thought he wasn't right in the head.
6. The battle of Stirling saw Wallace employ a new strategy to be used against the English heavy cavalry. What was it?

Answer: The use of 8 to 10 foot spears.

Wallace learnt many things from his uncle Argyle while growing up. Argyle explained to him about the Romans and how they protected their line with long spears.
7. Wallace is betrayed at the battle of Falkirk. One traitor surprised Wallace so badly that he lost all will to fight. Who was this person?

Answer: Robert the Bruce

Wallace sees Longshanks and chases after him. Longshanks orders a knight to fall back and kill Wallace. Wallace knocks the knight out of the saddle and runs over to finish him. Wallace is so shocked to see the Bruce on the ground that he can't move.
8. Who betrays Wallace and facilitates his capture?

Answer: Both of them

The Bruce's father made arrangements with Longshanks for Wallace's capture in return for Longshanks making the Bruce king. Craig helped because he was afraid Wallace would kill him like the other nobles that deserted him at Falkirk.
9. What does Isabella whisper to the king?

Answer: "Your blood dies with you. A child who is not of your line grows in my belly. Your son will not sit long on the throne, I swear it."

Although Wallace's name is not mentioned when she admits to being pregnant, the audience is left to assume it is William's child. The child was probably conceived during their last meeting when Longshanks sent the princess to meet Wallace so as to distract him while the king sent his armies north to Scotland.
10. What does William Wallace say as he is dying?

Answer: "Freedom!"

The executioner wants Wallace to ask for mercy. Hamish, Steven and the Bruce are all there and each are whispering for mercy also. They had just witnessed Wallace being stretched on the rack and hung by the neck until almost dead. Wallace is given one last chance for a quick death before being disemboweled.
