Pocahontas (Disney)

Disney animated version of the old tale of love, courage and friendship with a backdrop of the New World.

Pocahontas (voice of Irene Bedard) is a Native American girl whose life, and that of her tribe, is dramatically changed by the arrival of a shipload of English settlers.

Amongst them is the handsome adventurer Captain John Smith (Mel Gibson), who quickly falls in love with the pretty young lady.

However, Pocahontas's powerful father Chief Powhatan (Russell Means) disapproves of the relationship, and when it becomes apparent Smith's fellow settlers are planning on robbing the Native Americans of their gold, Pocahontas is forced to use her position to try and save the day.
