Best seven minutes in the history of cinema. Without any dialog it shows the strongest human emotions: Hate, love, fear and sadness. The editing, music, acting and cinematography. All done to perfection.

[@arminstummer7723]

This part is “epic“

[@qatarloanyer9035]

It's great on its own, but as the conclusion to an epic, wonderfully visual piece of cinema, it truly shines in all its glory. I really can't put into words how it felt to see it originally on the big screen, maybe the fact that some 30 years later, just the opening bars of the music makes me an emotional, goosebumpy kid again 🤔

HI FRIEND, I SEE THIS AS BEING SPASHUS AND YET IN CLOSED. MY VIEW OF THE MOVIE IS DIFFERENT FROM THE CLIP BUT IN THE CLIP I CAN SEE MAGUA DEFENDING HIMSELF IN HIS TERRORTORY. THE CASE GOT CLOSED FOR ME OF THE NAME LAST OF THE MOHICANS, I AM NOT EVIL BUT I ENDED THE WITH MAGUA BEING THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS AND CHINGUTCHOK BEING THE BRINGER OF PEACE TO THE REST OF THE HURON INDIANS. SACHEM SAID MAGUAS PATH WAS NOT A HURON ONE AND HE OFFERED TO SAVE ALICES LIFE, YOU WERE RIGHT ABOUT WRITING BEAUTIFUL. I FELT PASSIONATE

I used to watch this movie with my Dad a lot when i was a boy. He passed away recently. My brother and I used to laugh at this scene, as when we would watch it, my Dad would say he was Chingusgook, My brother was Uncas and i was Hawkeye. Watching this scene again, seeing Hawkeye and Chingusgook running up the mountain to have revenge after Uncas gets killed hit me hard. It felt as if my Dad was here watching it with me again. Thank you for uploading this beautiful scene. Fun fact - there's only 1 word in this entire scene and it's a name. So much story is told just through facial expressions, music and cinematography. Incredible stuff.

I love how Chingachgook just destroys Magua, there isn't even a real fight he just gets annihilated and that's it.

[@Kurskij]

Michael Mann's masterpiece. Not a single bad scene, not a single bad shot, not a single bad decision in that film (yes, than "bouncy rock" included). I first watched that movie when I was 7 - and watched it countless times after. It's pure magic each time.

Perfection. I recall watching this for the first time at a cinema in Paris when I was 19. The film started so strongly and flowed perfectly that I didn’t touch the popcorn sitting at my feet for the whole film. Needless to say I watched the movie again a week later, it was that good.

[@MartinHCollection]

that soundtrack is insane!!!!!!

[@mhjmstultiens]

The power of love, shown in its many faces. Also that soundtrack; it's 2022 and I'm still sitting on the tip of my chair. An incredible intense and heartfelt finale at the same time. May this scene always be remembered in cinema history.

[@jessicamassey2971]

I wish this movie get famous among all of this era

[@JensDean23]

I keep watching this, and loving it more and more. First you have a man running after his love (more showed in deleted scenes) and sacrificing his life for it. Then a woman who doesn´t wanna live without her love. Then a fathers anguish in losing his one true son and avenging him. A Brother losing a brother. Sister losing a sister. Just the fact that Uncas and Alice are a mirror of Hawkeye and Core, but a tragic one, is just another layer in this wonderful wonderful movie. Also. The music.

[@fabiantille4949]

the scene where she jumps of the cliff is the most emotional scene ever seen in hollywood cinematics, it has got everything, this is the purest scene ever made, Oscar for best scene ever you wont find any emotion of humankind thats left, its a masterpiece, its the Houdini of cinematic artwork, you cant make it better, its perfect in every sense. Its a contrast bath: Pain, Love, Courage, Rage, Mourning, Hate, Fury, Scorn, Immorality... you wont find the Missing one....

[@MysonEggAndHisbrotherCheese]

Since i watched her suicide when i was a young girl i never forget this scene 💔

[@Z_nem]

creo q es el verdadero amor de ella por el , en cierto sentido,

[@charltheron2769]

My vote for best movie end-scene of all time. (Michael Mann's adaption of James Fenimore Cooper's novel) Stunning cinematography; the mountain and vast expanse dwarfing the protagonists, the evocative building score, the eloquent & deceptively economical hand-to-hand combat, a film sequence build-up of over (almost) 7 minutes, show-casing the French-Indian-English-American War from the frontiers of Canada along the Hudson valley. It captures the essence of the period; its brutality, beauty, fierceness, competing ambitions and (lost) love of different interracial cultures. Absolutely magisterial.

[@michaelcarr3924]

What a fantastic ending to a film. The score, acting, action and heartbreak are tremendous. Kudos to the director. A lesser person would have had Day-Lewis kill Magua. Having the father avenge his son's death was much more dramatic and right.

[@pravinsubramanian5427]

I see your point. The novel had Hawkeye killing Magua as he tries to scale up the mountain, after murdering Uncas in cold blood and treachery. Uncas jumps upon the entourage who had Cora (and not Alice) hostage and when a Iroquois brave stabs Cora, he’s too stunned to react. That’s when Magua buries his blade into Uncas’ back. Uncas even though mortally wounded, kills Cora’s murderer before finally being felled by Magua. The rage you feel against Magua in the novel far exceeds his film equivalent (full credit to Wes Studi though for remarkable performance)

[@hbenneinghoven9149]

Sometimes I go to IMDB and check the cast of my favorite movies from when I was a kid. Whenever I see a specific character has passed away, I get a bit melancholic. It reminds me of change and me getting older, and I am not completely okay with that apparently.

[@destructiveintuition8947]

A soundtrack that has every emotion going on. I don't know what to feel but I feel

[@pitaariel1920]

I saw this movie as a child. I don’t remember the names of the characters, but I remember that when they look at each other, I suddenly I realized that they were deeply in love, more than her older sister was of the protagonist. I was heartbroken when she looks at the abyss and decided to kill herself. :(

This scene is so powerfull but not a single word was spoken. Well, the inly word was Hawkeye screaming for Uncas, but other than that, there are no monologues or dialogues and still is filled with emotion and feeling. This is peak cinematography!

[@lewissparrow7417]

No one's commented on the Dad's weapon, everyone knows that Indians used Tomahawks, knives, bows and arrows and whatever firearms that they could get their hands on. The Dad's weapon is called a "gunstock warclub" it's a fiendish but but brilliant weapon and lethal in his hands. It's a an actual fact real weapon and not made up for the film like so many are in other films. The Last Of The Mohicans is one of my favourite films and especially this scene with the action, music and scenery and hardly a word spoken.

[@nuruddeenmohammed4511]

Wow just noticed the gunstock warclub for the first time after years of watching the movie.

If there's one thing Michael Mann is a master at, is shooting great endings. Always with a nice soundtrack choice. The examples are many: Heat, The Insider, Last Of The Mohicans, Thief... By the way, I know all the cast is perfect in this film, but MY GOD how Jodhi May had a angel face ( 3:54 ). So serene in her demise.

[@notdn]

sachem, thrilled by what those invaders are capable of doing for others, somewhat ignores the honor of his dead and accepts their demands showing the highest respect duncan, seemingly miserable, in that very moment in our existence that defines what we are despite anything, gives his life for that stranger he really hates, for the man who took everything from him, allowing cora to live with who he knew she loves nathaniel, deeply moved and shocked by what that man has done for him and cora, shows his gratitude and respect in the only way that was possible at that moment, by preventing him, a man of honor whom he will never forget, an horrible death uncas stares at his father and with only that he understands that he must go to rescue that girl uncas gives his life for the love to that girl who he didnt even knew... alice gives hers for that man after witnessing it... the final sequence of this movie is just beyond masterful... what it evokes and how it does it... its just indescribably grandiose at every aspect (for me, specially the piece of music that accompanies which enhaces the visual stage so strongly) one of the very few scenes that can be judged as the greatest in cinematography history i still remember the moment i first watched this and i will never forget it

[@daviddench6643]

In my opinion, the side story of Uncas and Alice is a far better love story than Romeo and Juliet, Uncas falls in love with her when he first lays eyes on her, but she is oblivious all the way through the film until the end when she finally realizes how he must have felt when they share that last look at each other, but by then it's too late. Knowing that he sacrificed himslef on a futile effort to save her she throws herself off the cliff to be with him rather than live with her captors. Again it's just my opinion.

[@astroman0500]

Supposedly, in the book and the movie itself their love story is more fleshed out, so it wasn't just Uncas being secretly in love with Alice. She also has feelings for him and that's why she decided to jump from the cliff after Uncas was killed. But producers decided to take those scenes aways since they felt were unnecesary and were "distractful" whatever that means. I personally think its a shame their love story was taken away from the movie, because it would have made the ending way more impactful than what already is.
