Last of the Mohicans by Michael Mann Rating MM$

I've watched this movie probably 6 times in 6 months and I'd watch it again tonite. Almost flawless, it embodies all that is American like only Michael Mann can. The hope, the conflict, the arrogance, the passion, the independence and conformity. Daniel Day Lewis is unbelievable! Madeleine Stowe is watchable. Russell Means and Wes Studi show why they're two of my favorite actors in film. Eric Schweig is silently deadly and charming. Jodhi May's doe eyed look is spell bindingly innocent. This film races from one battle to the next with romance filling the gaps propelling you forward. There's few scenes on celluloid that move fathers/sons to tears like the last scene on the side of the mountain. Besides, who wouldn't want the woman they love, but have never spoken of their feelings, to fall to her death in his honor. Buy it, rent it, watch it, love it! This gets a MM$ rating as it is one of my favorites of all time. MM$
