Pocahontas Blu-ray

Pocahontas (Irene Bedard) is the daughter of Algonquin chief Powhatan (Russell Means), who promises her in marriage to Kocoum, a brave whom she doesn't love. Pocahontas would rather wander in the forest, communing with nature and her animal pals, Meeko, a raccoon, and the hummingbird Flit. When European settlers arrive, she becomes enamored of handsome John Smith (Mel Gibson).

Their attraction is encouraged by Grandmother Willow (Linda Hunt), a talking tree. The situation between their peoples is tense, however, as the settlers, led by Governor Ratcliffe (David Ogden Stiers) desperately want the gold that they're sure the natives are concealing. When a dutiful sentry, Thomas (Christian Bale) follows Smith into the woods on one of his secret meetings with Pocahontas, a tragic mistake leads both groups to the brink of war.

Only the love of Pocahontas and Smith can prevent bloodshed. POCAHONTAS was awarded two Oscars, for Best Original Musical or Comedy Score and Best Original Song for 'Colors of the Wind'. The romance between the spirited Indian beauty Pocahontas and the handsome British captain John Smith is painted in dazzling colours and sweeping music.

This 33rd animated feature from Disney boasts the voice talents of Irene Bedard, Mel Gibson, Christian Bale, Linda Hunt, and David Ogden Stiers.
