The Last of the Mohicans is a 1911 silent film adaptation of James Fenimore Cooper's 1826 novel The Last of the Mohicans. Produced by the Thanhouser Company and directed by Theodore Marston, it starred James Cruze in the title role of Uncas, along with Frank Hall Crane and William Garwood.[1]
This production followed another screen adaptation of Cooper's novel, a film directed by D.W. Griffith and released by Biograph Studios in 1909 under the title Leather Stocking. In 1911, yet another adaptation of The Last of the Mohicans was produced in New York by Patrick Powers.
