It is a great movie and it shows the English for what bastards they really are even though it is not completely accurate. I think the policy was the Lord of the area where the Scot women lived had rights to her on her wedding night. We need more Ned Kelly's in this world. "The worst example of audience abuse - to win the audience over to sympathise with Braveheart Wallace - was to present the allegedly wicked English king as introducing the practice of prima nocte, first rights. Thus we were led to believe that the Scots were so downtrodden by King Edward that Scottish women were forced to lose their virginity to their English landlords rather than to their bridegrooms. Thus prima nocte an intentional falsification of the historical record became the central reason and justification for Wallace's anti-English terrorism." scoop.co.nz
