I watched the first part when I was in high school, and the impression is almost gone. Even the big fat villain ratcliff thought it was a new character in the second part. The impression of the first part was just a few cuts, the first meeting of two people. The fog dissipated, and Smith, who was holding a gun, saw Pocahontas and the overlapping shots of two people and two eagles. The deepest memory is still the last: Smith was seriously injured and had to return to England, while Pocahontas beckoned into the wind from a high cliff, the wind seemed to bring her thoughts to him. Now that I think about it, this ending is their ending. They can only fall in love like a whirlwind, but they can't stay together like flowing water.
Some people say that Smith is no longer the same as the first in the second part, but I feel that although the quality of the second part is indeed worse by several levels, the plot is too thin and outrageous. In love, it is the most realistic and complete.
Yesterday I re-watched the beginning of the first part, as soon as Smith appeared, he gave people the image of an adventure swinger, full of adventure and new world. He jumped into the water at all costs to save his companions, and said that if I was in danger, you would save me too. Can't help but feel a kind of naivety... At the end of the second part, the king rewarded him with a boat, which was indeed the most suitable reward for him, so he happily wanted to take Pocahontas with him like a piece of luggage. Fortunately, in the end, he found Pocahontas' reluctance and let go in a very gentlemanly manner.
And Pocahontas at the beginning of the first part, to put it bluntly, just looks like a girl in puberty... I am not satisfied with the husband my father chose for him, thinking that he is too serious-,- jumped off a high cliff, although my father Teach her to be as stable as running water in order to keep flowing, she still chose the rapids of waterfalls...
So, two innocent and young people who are full of curiosity about adventure met. The part they dealt with in the mountains and flowing water was still beautiful, and at the end they seemed to be flying in the sky as eagles. It's a pity that they are still human after all...
Pocahontas is the chief's daughter and has an obligation to do it. Maybe she also has a heart to protect her homeland and clansmen in her bones. Smith is still an explorer at heart, and Pocahontas is part of a new world for him, a woman he has never met. Smith and Pocahontas are also completely different men from the kind of brave warriors in the clan...
In fact, if they really want to be together, it would be fine in the first part. Pocahontas followed him to London... But she was reluctant to leave The land that gave birth to her, and her obligations as a princess. And smith is even more unlikely to stay. He still has no way to settle down in one place for the time being, and there are still so many new worlds to explore.
So the second... a new john appeared, not smith, but rolfe.
He's more gentleman, more responsible, and doesn't need adventure. In the end, she followed her back to her world, so Pocahontas grew up from a puberty girl to a woman who found a home, living and multiplying in the land where they lived for generations... In the end, she was still as taught by her father. Yes, I chose a long life.
Although everyone knows that in history, the Indians were quickly driven out of their land by the invaders... Well, this is not the theme of the movie, and it can only be said to be helpless.
