ABOUT:
The Two-MovieCollection, Blu-ray debut features exciting all-new bonus material including “Drawing Inspiration: The Lost Story of Hiawatha,” a fascinating behind-the-scenes featurette showcasing how Walt Disney and his team were once developing a full-length animated feature called “Hiawatha,” that ultimately directly influenced the development of “Pocahontas.”
Bursting with all the “Colors of the Wind” and filled with spirited adventure, romance, and the show-stopping songs of Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz, the “Pocahontas Two-Movie Collection” features an award-winning cast that includes Mel Gibson (“The Passion of the Christ;” Academy Award® winner, Best Director “Braveheart,” 1995), Irene Bedard, Christian Bale (“Reign of Fire;” Academy Award® winner, Best Performance by an Actor in a SupportingRole “The Fighter,” 2011) and David Ogden Stiers (“Lilo and Stitch,” “Pooh’s Heffalump Movie”).
“Pocahontas” won Academy Awards® for both “Best Original Score” and “Best Song – “Colors of the Wind” 1995. The film also earned a Grammy Award® for “Best Song” (“Colors of the Wind,” 1996).

MY THOUGHTS:
Pocahontas is a DVD that while it is not accurate to history, it is a great story for children, little girls especially. It tells the tale that women can be strong and confident and tough decisions need to be made. The 3-Disc Special Edition includes three discs: Blu-ray with both movie titles and a separate DVD for each title. There are actually two full-length movies in this set: Pocahontas and Pocahontas 2. I had actually never seen (or heard of) Pocahontas 2 so it was nice to watch that. This is definitely a Disney title that has not gotten a lot of exposure but its still a great one to add to the collection. The animation and sound has also been remastered, while still keeping the original animation in tact.
