Pocahontas

Disney classic, Pocahontas is a fun easy watch. The story is entertaining and tells a good message, and the animation is great as always with Disney. This didn’t do too much different to any other Disney princess film, but it was still a fun watch.

absolutely torn with this one. this has always been one of, if not my favorite disney movie. and i watched it tonight for the first time in over a decade. the art style, music, atmosphere, visuals, character design are still among my favorite but now knowing the truth behind the story and seeing things that 10 year old me didn’t see makes the watch a bit uncomfortable. i understand the idea of revisionist history when it comes to art but i think trying to justify some of the actions as if to pretend they never happened is incredibly tone deaf, even for the 90s. they certainly present the actions of the white man in a negative manor which is great but then she...falls...in love...with the white man...great. and THEN tries to vilify (to an extent) kocoum and powhatan, are you kidding. plus ratcliffe doesn’t have the ‘fun’ or sometimes charm that good disney villains have, he just spews straight racism the entire movie. also i know that much of classic disney are incredibly downplayed versions of gruesome fairy tales, but pocahontas wasn’t a fairy tale. i think it would have been much better had disney told a completely original story of native americans. i love so much about it but there are some very problematic underlying issues.
