On this episode of Our American Stories, Before Randall Wallace wrote Braveheart, he was a son taking notes from the way his father lived. His dad never chased the spotlight, but he modeled the kind of character Wallace would later write into heroes on the screen. Looking back, Wallace traces how his father’s example gave him not only a sense of direction, but also the values that anchored his career as a storyteller. Here, he shares how one man’s life at home became the spark behind some of the most powerful stories to come out of Hollywood.
