"Pocahontas" is Disney's first attempt to find the subject matter of an animated feature film from a real historical event, and received mixed reviews. Compared with the problem of the film itself, the singing and dancing scenes continue to win the favor of the audience. Especially when the finishing touch theme song "The Color of Wind" appeared, the colorful pictures, creative painting style, and beautiful and magnificent tone were matched with Disney's unique singing voice with a strong Broadway musical atmosphere. The film The soundtrack made an audio-visual monument.
Disney chose the Indian princess originally for innovation, but when it touched sensitive colonial history and racial issues, criticism was inevitable. Some viewers believe that Pocahontas has the face of an Asian princess but a white figure. She is just an exotic and idealized beauty based on the aesthetics of white men. Others think that "Pocahontas" has obscured the cruel colonial history of the Indians.
"Pocahontas" is Disney's first princess film based on real characters. Based on the North American customs in the colonial era, the director used animation to show the historical features, geographical landscape, and majesty of nature from different angles, so that the aboriginal culture was truly presented in front of the audience.

    The color of the wind is good, the plot is old-fashioned, the ending is okay, the protagonist is too ugly, very Disney

    I will be with you forever, in the wind. Gao Gang's death is a pity. He is a warrior of the tribe. Although he is a little serious, he really likes Baojia Conti, so to protect her, I can only say that it is a pity that the princess does not love you. The only shortcoming I think is that there is no song that I can remember, so I deducted one star. [I don’t think the second part is necessary at all]

Pocahontas quotes

  • John Smith: We've improved the lives of savages all over the world.

    Pocahontas: Savages?

    John Smith: Uh, not that you're a savage.

    Pocahontas: Just my people!

    John Smith: No. Listen. That's not what I meant. Let me explain.

    Pocahontas: Let go!

    John Smith: No, I'm not letting you leave.

    Pocahontas: [jumps out of her canoe and climbs up into a tree]

    John Smith: Look, don't do this. Savage is just a word, uh, you know. A term for people who are uncivilized.

    Pocahontas: Like me.

    John Smith: Well, when I say uncivilized, what I mean is, is.

    [he grabs a branch, but the branch is not strong enough to hold his weight, and John falls back to the ground. Pocahontas jumps down after him]

    Pocahontas: What you mean is, not like you.

  • Pocahontas: [as she throws herself over John Smith, who is about to be executed] No!

    [silence]

    Pocahontas: If you kill him, you'll have to kill me, too.

    Powhatan: Daughter, stand back.

    Pocahontas: I won't! I love him, Father.

    [silence]

    Pocahontas: Look around you. This is where the path of hatred has brought us.

    [brief silence]

    Pocahontas: This is the path I choose, Father. What will yours be?
