Mini-Episode 34: The Last of the Mohicans
🕑 Added 2025-04-14 06:27:21 +0000 UTCIn today’s episode, I’d like to tell you about one of my favorite historical films and one of the very few set during the French and Indian War. Released during a golden age of Native American-themed movies, The Last of the Mohicans features one of the greatest soundtracks ever recorded. In this not-so-mini episode, we’ll chat about the book on which the film was based, its historical setting, the theme of ‘the white savage’, the early American frontier, some great character arcs, Russell Means, the American Indian Movement, Michael Mann’s compulsive meddling with the film, and much more.

The wisdom of gaining barbarian motivations is to take a step towards understanding that human desire.
