    Actually, there was some outstanding music in Braveheart. No singing, but some really great instrumental stuff. I'm thinking, particularly, of the sequence where he ran along the mountaintops and the "oulawed tunes, on outlawed pipes" when his father and brother died.

    It would have been better had they actually been Scots bagpipes (even the smallpipes, as the GHBs would have been as anachronistic as the Uillean pipes they used for "Braveheart's" music.

    Well, they took "artistic license" with the kilt and had the actors wearing it about 350 years before it actually existed, right? Why not the Uillean pipes? They didn't exist for about 400 years after Wallace died, or am I wrong?

    Chris. :confused:
