Walter is the protagonist; however, although he does not appear to be a hero in the traditional sense of the word, he is the person who the drama revolves around.

This adds to Walter's frustration. Walter now feels incapable and small in his mama's eyes.

The last of the Mohicans was a movie that really appealed to me from the beginning because of the heroism and the action into it.

The movie could be described as a romantic action like a Spiderman or a superman movie always needs the girl to give motivation to the main character but it is a historical drama.

Kowalski become the heroic white American man, exposes that he has power not over the 'thugs' but also over Sue. Kowalski dominance proves this implication of dominance while he lectures Sue to avoid dangerous situations and the men she should be dating. The racial dynamics
