Is Pocahontas a feminist movie?
It’s a movie about a woman claiming her feminist identity. When we first meet Pocahontas, she’s already a pretty badass feminist. She longs to be independent, to have the freedom to explore “just around the riverbend,” but she’s restricted by her duties as a woman and as the daughter of her tribe’s leader.
Why did Disney make Pocahontas?
The aim of “Pocahontas,” says Disney animation president Peter Schneider, is to “celebrate” Native American society. “We wanted to offer an ennobling and empowering view of Native Americans that hadn’t been provided in cinema before,” he says of the 78-minute feature that is scheduled for release June 23.
Did Pocahontas marry John Smith in the Disney movie?
It means “naughty one” or “spoiled child.” Her real name was Matoaka, and she later became Rebecca Rolfe. Pocahontas married John Rolfe, not John Smith. Disney’s stories are excellent, but in this case, not historically accurate.
