Part 8 of 8.
The Making Of Walt Disney's Pocahontas. Pocahontas is the thirty-third animated feature in the Disney animated features canon. It was produced by Walt Disney Feature Animation in April 15, 1994 and was originally released to selected theaters on June 16, 1995 by Buena Vista Pictures with the Wall
ace and Gromit short film, A Close Shave. The film is the first Disney film to be based on a real historic character. The film is partly based on the known historical story of Pocahontas but also on the folklore and legend that surround it. In particular, it presents an emotionally charged and highl
y dramatic account of the meeting between Pocahontas and John Smith. Pocahontas is one of the very few Disney films to feature an interracial romance (though not to the point of marriage). This movie is part of the Disney Renaissance that began in 1989. The Pocahontas' theme song "Colors of the Wi
nd", performed by Vanessa Williams, won the Oscar and Golden Globe for Best Song. The film's score, by Alan Menken, won the Academy Award for Best Original Score.
