剧情介绍
故事发生在17世纪的北美大陆，尽管生存环境恶劣，资源稀缺，但世世代代生活在这里的印第安人仍然享受着延续了百年的宁静生活。然而，这样的生活伴随着来自西方文明世界的三艘小船的到来即将划上终点，103名英国水手来到了这片未经开垦的处女地，建设了他们的据点，在这里宣扬他们的宗教和文化。
“永恒苏珊”号的甲板上，一位名叫史密斯（柯林·法瑞尔 Colin Farrell 饰）的青年因为违抗军令而即将遭到处死，船长纽波特（克里斯托弗·普卢默 Christopher Plummer 饰）看中史密斯的精明强干，留下了他。一行人上岸驻扎，建立了詹姆斯镇，却在无意之中侵犯了酋长波瓦坦（欧琳卡·乔彻 Q'Orianka Kilcher 饰）的领地。之后，史密斯邂逅了酋长的女儿波卡洪塔斯（Q'orianka Kilcher 饰），两人之间产生了一段传奇的感情。 Captain Smith is spared his mutinous hanging sentence after captain Newport's ship arrives in 1607 to found Jamestown, an English colony in Virginia. The initially friendly natives, who have no personal property concept, turn hostile after a 'theft' is 'punished' violently on the spot. During an armed exploration, Smith is captured, but spared when the chief's favorite daughter Pocahontas pleads for the stranger who soon becomes her lover and learns to love their naive 'savage' way of harmonious life. Ultimately he returns to the grim fort, which would starve hadn't she arranged for Indian generosity. Alas, each side soon brands their own lover a traitor, so she is banished and he flogged as introduction to slavish toiling. Changes turn again, leading Smith to accept a northern-more mission and anglicized Pocahontas, believing him dead, becoming the mother of aristocratic new lover John Rolfe's son. They'll meet again for a finale in England.

2020.2.24 因为电影迈出了勇敢的一步
补标
我认为这种创作态度是最值得赞誉的，绝非是对沉重历史背后各种悲剧往事的规避，而为遥远视角上衍生出来的唯美幻想。完全客观看待历史可能很难做到，但马力克把任何强加给作品私货的企图都置于一边 ，只用图像来说明可以被无限理解的自由。并用着自然光来完成对爱情和生活的诗意刻画，在经历长时间对影像内部自由世界的建立之后，从何种角度来看待与解读的任务便全部交给了观赏者。虽然新世界的运转离不开诸如思考上帝、战争等宏大事件的运作，但个体心灵深处的爱情故事仍旧是值得阐述且从未失去吸引力的。至于角色到底在完成着什么事件，则并不是在交汇视角下最需要关注的。马力克没有站在什么极为明确的角度来引入丰富想象力从而减少主题把控上的难度。和繁杂相对的便是最纯粹的惊奇，甚至是后来作品都略微缺少的那种美学意义和形式上无比统一的和谐。
172min加长版。who am I,？where am I？ who am I married to？mother.此心安处是吾乡。这一次，马力克的哲学诗找到了合适的土壤。婷姐说赫尔佐格和马力克是她的父亲与母亲，对比《天谴》和此片，我证实了这段血缘关系。
补2019
收你你那顾影自怜的东方主义。

宝嘉康蒂？
172版本，略显长了，内容重复，风格保持还好。
与其说喜欢马力克的电影，不如说喜欢他构建出的世界，令人想要永久地徜徉于其中。
好奇，象征，诗性，爱，彼岸，回归
生命之树
【3.5】172min。在此可以看到马力克得以进化至10年代形态的诸多先兆。神性是根植于物质世界的无限飞升，从新世界的双重性延展到宏观命题，但最喜欢他的一点是最后落笔总要回归个体的渺小情感。
她好像一个纯洁的太阳照亮了我们文明的每一寸丑恶 好像它是个错误
制作还是很认真的，不过对殖民和原住民的冲突斗争描述实在太温柔了
