Not exactly news...

...but this came up again on the iPod. How can you listen to this and not feel like you could run through a wall? Even if and when I bounced off the wall, I think I would keep getting up and doing it over again.

Blast it loud.

Amazing soundtrack to an amazing movie. I love this song especially. Thanks for sharing this!

Chingachgook is one of my favourite action heroes of all time! This movie is a great one for all kinds of reasons... except for the freakin' animal trainer running in the background in the opening sequence! The power of DVD toally ruined the perfection of this film for me.

The music is undoubtedly a powerful tool to set the scene and represent all of the players too... it's also sad in a heartwarming way at times.

Neil - I agree completely. Top of the World is the other standout, but this one is the leader.

Steve - good call. He doesn't have a ton of screen time, but the final fight scene (if you can call it that, since it's more of a deconstruction of Magua) is an all-time favorite of mine.

Haha - I've never noticed the animal trainer. Might have to pop it in again and watch more carefully.
