Braveheart is at the top of my favorite films list. I totally fell in love with this movie.
It's a beautiful film. An inspirational story about a man's love for a woman, his passion
for his country's freedom, and his courage
and strength to fight for it.

An Icon Production
10 Oscar Nominations
with 5 Oscars Won!!
The film brought Mel two Oscars: One for Best Picture
and one for Best director. (Yeah!)
Also for Braveheart, Jon Toll won for Cinematography;
Lon Bender, Per Hallberg for Sound Effects Editing;
and Peter Frampton (II) , Paul Pattison, Lois Burwell for Makeup.

Nominations were:
Best Music, Original Dramatic Score James Horner;
Best Film Editing:   Steven Rosenblum;
Best Sound:   Anna Behlmer, Scott Millan, Andy Nelson (I) , Brian Simmons
Best Costume Design: Charles Knode;
Best Writing, Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen:   Randall Wallace

This was only Mel' s second time out as director but the film came off as though he's been doing
it his whole career. Personally, I think he should have gotten Best Male Actor for his portrayal
as William Wallace, Randall Wallace should have received an Oscar for the story
and James Horner, an Oscar for his hauntingly
beautiful musical score.

There was a promotional video at one time you could rent from Blockbuster on the
Making of Braveheart called A Director's Passion. Possibly it can still be rented from there.
Very interesting and fun to watch.
