Thief is another total classic and Manhunter is very good. Far superior to Red Dragon, which was just an excuse to try and get Anthony Hopkins in another Lecter movie. I even love The Keep.

I love this movie. I was a first-year US History teacher and working part-time as a bookseller at Barnes and Noble Bookstore when the film came out. I saw a trade magazine with a picture of Day-Lewis on its cover. I knew I just had to use the movie in class as a teaching tool. The star had his sleeves rolled up, tattoos on full exhibition, Natty Bumppo (Hawkeye) was gripping Killdeer tightly while running full tilt toward the camera. Excellent studio still. A year later I used the film as an adjunct to a friend who was involved and had been involved for some time in Rev Recreative groups. My friend came to class and interrupted the movie/class in order to try recruiting the entire class for George III's army while wearing a rev war period uniform and carrying an original museum-quality Brown Bess that he owned. I had that class in my pocket for the rest of the year. I used that film for the next twenty years with the same effect. I used the film to clarify the differences between cinematic history and actual history. I tried my best to emulate what my history instructor had done for us when I'd been in high school thirty years before.

This moovie made me search deeper and deeper about the history of the native americans and learn w/e is possible to learn about them from the internet. This moovie not only made me do all of the above but somehow changed me as a person...and till today it still does that. For me this moovie is an inspiration and a major drama in the same time...this moovie is so powerdfull that it can change your life in both good and bad way... This moovie is a masterpiece.Period.

I don't know if I would say that. (True, I do love the movie) The book is written in early 19th century writing style that takes a bit of getting use to by the modern reader. It took me a couple of tries to get into the novel, but once I got the rhythm I really thought it was great. And placing the book in the context of entire Leatherstocking series, James Fennimore Cooper deserves to be considered the first great American novelist. The character of Uncus plays a much bigger role in the novel. Curiously, there are characters that die in the movie that live in the book (Alice and Heyword) and characters that survive in the movie that die in the book (Cora). Also there is no rivalry between Hawkeye and Heyword. Another thing the movie sidesteps the fact that Cora is biracial

Excellent point and I agree. Based on the hundreds of books which I have read and a large number of them made into movies, only a small number of books let me down. Much like yourself, I preferred the movies - 'That Last of the Mohicans' to the book and same with "Doctor Zhivago'.

My father took me to watch this movie at the theater when I was 14. An intense experience that left indelible memories. Watching this film for the second time 30years later just makes me appreciate even more how great it is and how well it has stood the test of time. You can totally feel all the hard work, commitment and passion that went in its making.

Cooper wanted to write a novel that gave the general flavor of an era that had ended shortly before he was born. He noted in the intro that he was not writing a history book - but he did make some of the mistakes believed in his time. MM went even further in bringing the time and characters to life in a believable way. Some of the 'history' is a little wrong - Col Monro did not die - until months later of a heart attack in Albany - but he was a broken man. However, much of the portrait of the people of the era is correct - as is the general outline of the events of 1757 in the NY wilderness.

I live within a half hour of Fort William Henry, there's a museum on the spot where the battle took place and also another 40 minutes from Fort Ticonderoga (Carillon to the French where Montcalm launched his siege from). I am also directly descended from a man who fought as part of the Colonial militia raised to defend the fort from the French. I am also directly descended from Akwesasne Mohawk on my mother's side and on my father's side, my grand mother was half French-Canadian and Mohawk so my whole family is not only from this area but my ancestors on all sides fought and took part in the battles and wars from New France, to the French & Indian War, the Revolutionary War and War of 1812.

I live where a big part of this movie was filmed, I was in high school at the time and working at a flea market selling ice cream and got to meet a lot of the Native Americans who were extras working on the film. Most of the areas are still the same as seen in the movie.

Sometimes the forces of the Universe bring together the right people, at the right time, with the right ideas. When I first saw this movie at the cinema, I had no idea what it was really about, other than childhood memories of the original movie on B+W television. When the movie finished I just sat silently in my seat, in awe of it's brilliance. The locations, the cinematography, the actors, the soundtrack, the rise and fall of emotions experienced whilst watching it. To this day, when I listen to the soundtrack, or watch the movie on DVD. Nothing has changed that opinion.

One of the most riveting and beautifully captured movie, every part of this movie is amazing and Lewis delivers in all fronts. And of course the musical score is equally amazing, adds so much to the movie and heightens the emotions like only good music can.

One of my top 5 favorite movies. The historical accuracies were amazing, right down to the tiniest details. The first time I saw it I was in my mid twenties at a theater. During the scene of the assault on the fort, as the camera panned across the firing cannons, a soldier held a plum-bob above a cannon while another held a protractor on top of the cannon to make sure it was at the right firing angle. It was only on the screen for a second, but that kind of attention to detail was just awesome. Great writing, great acting, and great location/effects.

On top of its beauty visually the performances are spectacular. And the chemistry between the romantic leads.... many years later you can still feel the heat!
