I am watching "The last of the Mohicans". (I had to check it up as I have heard so many good things about it). So far very good in a "movie that will make your rainy day better" way and quite different form the book which I remember to revolve more around war and Uncas and his father than around romance. It is STILL all about white people but I really like Hawkeye. And it is sweeping-epic gorgeous! I am looking forward to making some icons from this!



It has been a while since I have read the book – it was actually in our school program reading for the "Literature" class. I remember discussing at a very great length how evil white invaders wiped off the whole population of Indians by making them fight against each other. And that Uncas died and the future of the whole nation died with him. BUT!!! I don't remember anything serious between Cora and Hawkeye. I must have forgotten this completely – was their kissing scene in the book?????????????????

Anyways, this is such a pretty and wonderfully romantic scene:




PS I have to go to the dentist this afternoon - I am not overly happy about this. :D

I have nothing to add that anyone's already said. However, I will pipe up because this is one of my favorite movies of all time. When I was moving in and unpacking, I must have played it about three times.

I bought a copy of the book but since it's like the 2nd or 3rd in the Natty Bumpo series I never read it. (I hate reading things out of order, even if it's "allowed.") I'm getting conflicting chronology from fantasticfiction.co.uk and wikipedia—and there's so much else I have to read that I haven't worked my way through it.

One movie marathon day, I made a friend of mine watch The Power of One, The Last of the Mohicans, and A Room with a View. When I pointed out that Cecil Vyse was Daniel Day-Lewis (and we watched it right after Mohicans) she was quite stunned. One of my favorite transformations.

Daniel Day-Lewis is so f'ing hot in that movie. I also think Mohicans is what made me love long hair on girls, Stowe's hair is awesome in this. I was quite obsessed with her for a while.

OMPH! If haven't told me – I would have never realized this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hee! This film made me change my opinion on long hair in men, for one thing! I never used to like them! It also looks like DDL has his OWN hair but I guess it is an optical illusion!
