Summary: First up, in this two-part episode, I join staff writer Bright Wall/ Dark Room, contributor for Cinephilia & Beyond and host of the upcoming INCREMENT VICE podcast, Travis Woods. Travis opens the episode by hounding Blake about tempting fate with another Michael Mann podcast. Their war party then continues, going deep on Mann's "time is luck" theme resonating all the more powerfully in Mohicans. TIME: 01:32 To close the episode, I join joins film and television critic with Fairfax Media and creator of BINGE-R Mr Craig Mathieson. Blake and Craig discuss Mann's uncanny ability to swell and contract form the collective to the individual focus and that it's kind of a miracle that this film exists.

TWITTER: @CMSCREENS About the show: THE LAST (12 minutes) OF THE MOHICANS is a twelve-episode limited podcast series focusing on the climax of the Michael Mann's 1992 epic The Last of the Mohicans. The format of the podcast, which slightly differs from ONE HEAT MINUTE, utilises the entire final twelve-minute climax of Mohicans as a portal to explore the themes of the movie. The show examines the cross-section of political apparatuses, colonial superpower wrangling, and Mr Mann's riff on the "great American hero." The final episode - once again will feature Mr Mann to unpack his intentions with the film in the conception and orchestration of its grand ending.
