    BRAVEHEART 
    THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
      
    FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY MEL GIBSON 
      
    CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
      
    ABOUT THE FILM 
    "Braveheart" is an epic historical drama set in 13th-century Scotland, directed by and starring Mel Gibson. The film follows William Wallace, a common man who leads a revolt against the oppressive rule of King Edward I of England. After the brutal execution of his wife, Wallace embarks on a journey to unite the Scottish clans in their fight for freedom. The film explores themes of liberty, sacrifice, and leadership, focusing on Wallace’s personal journey and the broader struggle for independence. With intense battle sequences and emotional depth, "Braveheart" highlights the cost of fighting for justice. 
      
    TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
      
    “Mel Gibson initially rejected the role of William Wallace, believing he was too old. However, Paramount Pictures insisted on casting him, so Gibson eventually accepted.” 
      
    “When a local asked why the Battle of Stirling Bridge was filmed on an open plain instead of the actual bridge, Gibson humorously responded that "the bridge got in the way." The local retorted, "Aye, that's what the English found." 
      
    “One of the film's extras mistook one of Mel Gibson's children for an errand boy and asked him to fetch tea. Gibson overheard and whispered to his son, "Go get it." 
      
    “In an interview in 2009, Mel Gibson acknowledged that the film was heavily fictionalized but defended the changes as necessary for dramatic effect. He also mentioned that he felt at least a decade too old to play Wallace.”

    The Danish concept of hygge is a wonderful thing. Even if most fail miserably when they try to pronounce or explain its true essence. Unless you’re a Viking of course. 
    As Keri stood in the departure lounge of Auckland International Airport with her four-month-old baby, searching for her flight on the board, hygge wasn’t on her radar. In hindsight she agrees it probably should have been. 
    But she’d never imagined a chance encounter with a Dane in a crowded bar in her home city of Wellington would lead her here, a mother, about to circle the globe, with no knowledge of when she'd return home. 
    Eighteen thousand kilometres away a new life awaited her in Denmark. A country where babies sleep outside, the word for bread is seemingly impossible to pronounce and a country in which immigration challenges abound. 
    A witty observer of cultural nuances, Keri reveals the day-to-day realities of a New Zealander living her best life in Denmark. From integration interrogations to rye bread misdemeanors, Nothing Like a Dane provides a humorous and heartfelt insight into creating a new life in a faraway land. 
    And what did she learn? That it’s not all hygge and pastries. Even in Denmark.
