Boudica Movie

[Nathan Ross]

I get confused how to address the people in the UK: British, or English.

Don't worry - even people in the UK have problems with this! 'British' refers to an inhabitant of Britain, politically (if not strictly geographically) used to refer to Great Britain, which in turn comprises the countries of England, Scotland and Wales (the UK excepting Northern Ireland). You could therefore be both Scots and British, English and British or Welsh and British, but not Scots and English, for example (although some people do try). Until recently, and still in some other countries, English was often used as a general synonym for British, which annoys the Scots and Welsh no end.

Personally, I think Gibson is a bit of a misogynist so seeing his take on a female hero would be different to say the least.

Yes indeed, although Boudica does end up dying, shortly after being brutally flogged and her daughters gang-raped... Plenty of opportunities for misogyny there... hock:
