Pocahontas

kweku_ananse_haki shared a tip "Disney makes good propaganda I’ll say that. Like always it looks beautiful and the songs are great but if you know some of the history behind the actual Pocahontas then it’s like 🤢 🤮. Don’t look at the real history if you love this 🎞."

SagesRain shared a tip "This is certainly a Disney movie. It somehow took the real life story of two men buying and abusing a 11-12 year old native and turned it into a rendition of Romeo & Juliet. It's not my favorite, the songs are mediocre and it's not super visually appealing, but if you're into Disney its not the worst"

melly_loveee shared a tip "I never really saw the movie itself before I just knew about it but watching it I really did like it and the second one wasn’t that bad I just think they made John Smith so different."

naomi_coleman_9317 shared a tip "Very mixed feelings about this movie. Although the animation,colors and soundtrack was good, I feel as if it didn’t really represent Native Americans culture. (Yes I know Disney likes to romanticize things and I usually don’t mind that but ,I’d like this to be a little more realistic for a children’s movie ) good movie, needs to improve representation. Again my opinion."

trisha_howson shared a tip "Aways have watched this since I was little my mother was dark skinned with black hair and she said she was native American an I have learned that I am indeed native American. An I have aways loved anyway it beautiful charatoon"

damaris_carreno shared a tip "I love the ending to this movie. She loved freely but wasn't blinded by love. She understood that he had to leave in order to live but also understood that her people needed here here. The goodbye at the end in her language was emotional and overall very mature."

introvert_thats_why shared a tip "Amazing movie! Love the characters except the villain clearly. The backgrounds are absolutely beautiful, and I love how all of the Indigenous characters are voiced by actual Indigenous people. Great movie, great story."

calvin_jackson_3465 shared a tip "The music is the only saving grace for this movie, outside of that, it's a film that so shamelessly tries to "both sides" the conflicts that came with the settling of Jamestown and all the gross implications that comes with this brand of revisionism."

tom_and_vicki_kersh shared a tip "I was obsessed with this movie when I was in fourth grade, and I loved pocahontas. A good movie,and it has good message to be like the #colors of the wind."

readingkitty shared a tip "I can't stand this movie personally, I think they could have made a much better movie that was way more historically accurate. I'll take the book "Blood in the Water" any day instead of this."

betty_beth shared a tip "Totally whitewashed and colonists' perspective! Was progressive for its time... BUT!-it isn't now a days. Unless you are a racist/bigot/problemic; I don't recommend this. When I learn the real history: I burn my VHS copy in the fireplace during a summer's day!"
