Magic Xylophone - interesting you'd mention the director's cut of Last of the Mohicans. The director's cut of this movie is worse than the original theatrical version - it chops things up, adds an annoying monologue, and gets rid of some key music.

Wow, I had blocked that one from my mind - I failed at that mission more than all the other missions in the whole game, combined. But, if memory serves, it actually wasn't necessary to complete the San Fierro part of the game… I think I obsessed over it for a long time, just because I wanted to hear David Cross say…
