Imported films in the early 2000s generally added many non-European-American actors and characters. It can be seen that on the one hand, it is the global integration that relies on the development of transportation, migration, electronic communication, and information technology; Another point to mention, why is the current popular female voice like this? ; or a more domineering, male hormone-like , this kind of sound is more powerful and attractive when sung, such as the theme song of the Chinese version of the film, Jike Junyi "Heart of the Ocean"; there is another kind of inherited from singer Faye Wong. Because in the past, this kind of air was unpopular, and it may have implied a sense of wrong values: unorthodox and non-mainstream, similar to the status of the rhythmic black music of the past. In the 1980s and 1990s, its characteristics were gradually described as ethereal fairy music. "Pocahontas" can be summed up as a joyous coming-of-age adventure, although I personally don't think it's as touching and beautiful as "Song of the Sea". Its style is based on the Pacific island culture and is full of tropical flavors. There are also some primitive art elements, such as tribes and totems; there are also magical decorations such as coconut monsters, seashells, sailboats from the ancestors of the age of sailing, stacked stones on the mountain peaks, and other elements. The main characters appear one after another. The daughter of the chieftain chosen by the sea god: Moana, the demigod of the wind and the sea: the ever-changing Maui. And Moana's pet: the cross-eyed rooster; and the demonized spirit of the hill, the owner of the heart of the ocean. At the end of the story, Moana and Maui return the green gem, which symbolizes the heart of the ocean, to the spirit of the hills, thus restoring the ecological balance of the hill islands in the entire ocean.
