Mann’s version of James Fenimore Cooper’s novel centres on an electrifying performance by Day Lewis as Hawkeye, a white man adopted in childhood by the Mohicans, now caught up in war and political intrigue in the mountain wilderness of upstate New York in the mid-18th century. At once packed with historical detail and epic in conception, the film mixes action, romance and suspense to exhilarating effect.
