The Last of the Mohicans

The Last of the Mohicans (1992) more movies like this

directed by Michael Mann
featuring Daniel Day-Lewis, Madeleine Stowe, Russell Means, Eric Schweig, Jodhi May, Wes Studi

Director Michael Mann based this lushly romantic version of the James Fenimore Cooper novel more on his memory of the 1936 film version (starring Randolph Scott) than on Cooper's novel (in fact, Philip Dunne's 1936 screenplay is cited as source material for this film). Set in the 1750s during the French and Indian War, the story concerns Hawkeye ...

directed by Michael Curtiz, William Keighley
featuring Errol Flynn, Olivia de Havilland, Basil Rathbone, Claude Rains, Patric Knowles

In order to avoid the material copyrighted by Douglas Fairbanks Sr. for his 1922 Robin Hood, the scripters of this Flynn version relied on several legendary episodes that had never before been filmed, notably the battle between Robin and Little John (Alan Hale Sr., who played this part three times in his long career) and the "piggy-back" episode ...

Journey to the Center of the Earth

Journey to the Center of the Earth (1959) more movies like this

directed by Henry Levin
featuring Pat Boone, James Mason, Arlene Dahl, Diane Baker, Peter Ronson, Thayer David

There was neither a heroine nor a villain in Jules Verne's 1864 novel Journey to the Center of the Earth, but scenarist Charles Brackett evidently knew what he was doing by adding both to the 1959 film version. The picture proved to be a significant success in an otherwise disappointing year for 20th Century Fox. James Mason stars as amusingly ...

directed by Brian Helgeland
featuring Heath Ledger, Mark Addy, Rufus Sewell, Paul Bettany, Shannyn Sossamon, Laura Fraser

This crowd-pleasing medieval adventure tale is very loosely inspired by Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales and mixes the anachronistic elements of modern-day rock music and colloquialisms with a period setting and characters. Heath Ledger stars as William Thatcher, a low-born 14th century squire who, in a fit of inspired spontaneity, replaces ...
