Quotes
Maj. Duncan Heyward: What will happen to Chingachgook now?
Hawkeye: It takes a Mohican only minutes to bury his dead...but many moons to bury his grief. He'll wander the hills alone until he's ready to come down. Then we'll both go back into the forest and try to find what we lost.
Maj. Duncan Heyward: What is that?
Hawkeye: Peace. Peace, Major. The most precious thing a man can have. Chingachgook and me, we'll help those who want to see peace grow.

The Classics Illustrated version

Do you remember those comic books that brought classic literature to life? No? Too young I guess. Well, I do. Between the 1940s, and the '70s, there was series of comic books that brought classic literature to life. It was called Classics Illustrated. It brought books like Jules Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea to life, and it also did the same to James Fennimore Cooper's The Last Of The Mohicans. Fifteen years before the big-screen Daniel Day- Lewis movie, this was the movie. It was on for two nights and starred Steve Forest as Hawkeye, Ned Romero as Chingcashnook, and Don Shanks, (of The Life And Times Of Grizzly Adams,) as Uncas. The movie's about three scouts guiding a British officer and a couple of women through the wilderness of Upstate New York during the French and Indian War. (Hey, PC Speech Police, arrest me, if you can.) They have to contend with French soldiers and hostile Indians. The movie was based on the Classics Illustrated comic book but it was good. I hope it's on DVD. Watch this first and then watch the 1992 version.
