The final scene in “Last of the Mohicans” is one of my favorites. The facial expressions of the actor playing Maqua are excellent as he watches the girl go over the cliff.

Some of Daniel Day Lewis’ dialogue (”I will find you no matter what the cost!”) was pretty bad. I thought it detracted from an otherwise well made film.

Actually he said, "I will find you, no matter what occurs." It sounds stilted to our modern ears, but it was the way some folks talked back then, even, I daresay, backwoodsmen, who were raised on the formal language of the Bible.

It is a lovely soundtrack, and one that I don't have. I'll have to rectify that! ;o)
