Hawkeye is assisted by his Indian friend Chingachgook, and Uncas, Chingachgook's son; the two are the last survivors of the Mohican tribe. During their travels to the fort, Alice falls in love with Hawkeye, while Cora falls in love with Uncas. But along the way, the band is continually harassed by the demonic Huron Indian Magua. Magua causes the deaths of Cora and Uncas, while the British are attacked by the Hurons and the French and forced to flee Fort William Henry. Hawkeye is taken prisoner by the brutal Hurons and Maj. Heyward must organize a band to rescue Hawkeye before he is tortured to death Notes Title from title frames Cast Randolph Scott, Binnie Barnes, Henry Wilcoxon, Bruce Cabot, Heather Angel Event Originally produced by Reliance Productions in 1936 Notes In English with optional closed captions in English Subject Cooper, James Fenimore, 1789-1851 -- Film adaptations Cooper, James Fenimore, 1789-1851 Mohegan Indians -- Drama White people -- Relations with Indians -- Drama Man-woman relationships -- Drama Man-woman relationships Mohegan Indians White people -- Relations with Indians.
