In class we watched parts of the film New World. The film is supposed to portray the events surrounding the founding of the Jamestown colony, especially the the life of John Smith, Pocahontas, and John Rolfe. Like most versions of the story, much of it is fictionalized.
What parts of the film are historically accurate?
Which parts of the film are fiction?
How does the film portray the English colonists?
How does it portray the Native Americans?
Does the film have a message or any insights on the English encounter with the Native Americans of North America?
