Here Be Dragons, by Sharon Kay Penman

Tonight I saw Braveheart for the first time. I can't believe I've never seen it before. My husband and our roommate raved about it ... despite that I was skeptical, but soon discovered they were right. They were more than right. That ranks right up there with The Fountain in my book. I was absolutely floored when I saw Mel Gibson also directed it.

This movie forced me to revisit my opinion about Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. Braveheart really dwarfs that movie. I must confess Braveheart has now taken over the Top Movie of All Time spot in my heart. (Sorry, Alan Rickman.) I would have loved to have seen Alan Rickman in Braveheart. It's too bad he wasn't, but oh well.

What a remarkable movie. What a truly amazing and remarkable movie Braveheart is. I am so glad my husband forced me to watch it. More and more I am growing to trust his taste in movies. ^.-
