About this product

Product Information

In 1607, three ships sailed across the Atlantic to the shores of what became known as Jamestown, Virginia. The arrival of these Europeans changed forever the history of the native people already living peacefully in this fertile country. Writer-director Terrence Malick, who has been waiting 25 years to tell this story, finally gets his chance in the breathtaking epic THE NEW WORLD. Colin Farrell stars as Captain John Smith, a British mutineer facing execution who finds a new purpose--and a dangerous love--in this new land. Smith falls for the young and beautiful Pocahontas (Q'Orianka Kilcher, in her first major role), daughter of the Indian chief Powhatan (August Schellenberg), laying the groundwork for trouble ahead. The Indians are both fascinated and frightened of the Europeans, not sure whether they are friend or foe. Suspicion, desire, greed, lust, and power soon combine to make them mortal enemies. Using natural lighting, carefully reconstructed forts (James Fort) and villages (Werowocomoco), realistic weaponry, fabulous makeup and costumes, and even a re-creation of the Algonquin language, Malick has made a majestic historical drama that transports viewers back to early 17th century America. Supplemented by James Horner's (BRAVEHEART, TITANIC) lush, percussion-based score and Emmanuel Lubezki's gorgeous photography--especially of night scenes on the river--THE NEW WORLD is a compelling examination of the very beginning of American history, told by a master filmmaker who has made just three previous, highly regarded films (BADLANDS, DAYS OF HEAVEN, THE THIN RED LINE) since 1973.

  • Excellent movie

    Great movie. DVD came in good quality and never skipped. The case was old and had old used movie stickers on them, which is annoying, but I guess it doesn't really matter. This is the best story of Pocahontas. Very artistic movie. More music than dialogue.

  • Great price, DVD worked perfectly

    I have no idea what the movie is about, but my mom asked me to order it for her because she thought it sounded interesting. But as far as I can tell, the movie works fine and she enjoyed it. So five stars across the board for this purchase!

  • Vague Disappointment

    The movie felt erratic and vague, neither my husband nor I enjoyed it at all!!! The scenery is beautiful as are its actors, but the movie felt like it was made by someone whose mind was in the clouds.

  • Not worth the time

    Story was EXTREMELY slow and dry. Did not hold my interest and I will NOT be watching it twice! I did all I could just to make it to the end.

  • It was a new world and very different from what was expected.

    I really enjoy movies about the beginning of America. This movie brought out things that I did not know about the relationship between the Pilgrims and Indians.

  • Story of Jamestown and Pocohontas.

    No one tells a story like Malick. I had seen this movie several years ago and wanted to add to the collection. Wonderful. Lovely. Like watching a painting being made.

  • the new world

    the movie was okay as far as action and excitement is concerned accuracy I don't know since nobody alive today was around back then but like every other movie or any other story about history it's the interpretation of the writer
