THE LAST (12 minutes) OF THE MOHICANS: Episode 2: Fran Hoepfner (Editor at Large Bright Wall Dark Room) and Kris Tapley (Recovering Journalist and Filmmaker)

In this two-part episode I'm joined by the legendary editor at large for Bright Wall Dark Room, Fran Hoepfner, to discuss loving the score before the movie and pondering Daniel Day Lewis' hair routine. To close the episode I talk to the great recovering journalist and filmmaker, Kris Tapley, about growing up in North Carolina and experiencing stunning wilderness, and pitching Mr Mann two more entries in a potential period epic trilogy.

FORMERLY: PLAYBACK PODCAST TWITTER: @KRISTAPLEY 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 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.
