: Ok, Mui Lee brought up a good topic the other day ... How about it you guys & gals? Which romance had the most impact on you and why? DDL & Stowe or Eric S. & Jodhi? (Or, maybe a third romantic couple, Magua & Munro's heart! Ever notice how lovingly Wes stares at that bloody mess?) I would think that EVERYONE would have an opinion on this, so, let it fly!
I personally liked Uncas and Alice's love story - Now to be sure, Cora and Hawkeye have a great thing going and they survived, but Uncas died for Alice - the story was all in the background, but we were all aware of it and that was powerful.
I just wish he would have been smarter and waited for his father and Hawkeye at the very end. That scene always gets to me - esp. right after I watch the movie, like I did tonight.
