How Much Do You Remember About the Film, "The New World?"

The New World is a romantic historical drama. The British-American film was directed by Terrence Malick.

The New World was released in 2005. It got mixed reviews when it was first released, but many people appreciate it more in hindsight.

The New World is the story of the founding of the Jamestown, Virginia settlement. It was inspired by real historical figures.

Captain John Smith is the love interest in the film, and also the hero. He is a true historical figure, portrayed by Colin Ferrell.

The film gives us a glimpse into the Powhatan Native American tribe. The tribe is none too happy about all the Englishmen in town.

Pocahontas was John Smith's love interest. She is a true historical figure with an amazing history. Pocahontas is known for her courage and bravery in saving John Smith.

The New World was Terrence Malick's 4th film. He is famous for other stunning movies like The Thin Red Line.

Although The New World had very mixed reviews when it was released, it went on to be considered one of the best of the 2000s. The film also received many awards.

The New World is set in 1607. This was the time when the English and the Native Americans were colliding on American soil.

Pocahontas was literally a princess. She was the daughter of Chief Powhatan. She is famous for being so adventurous and spirited.

Historically, and in the film, 3 ships arrive from the English royal charter. They come to America to found a colony in the New World.

At first, John Smith is below deck in chains. He's being sentenced to death for making mutinous remarks. He is finally pardoned by Captain Christopher​ Newport.

Captain Newport refers to the Indians as the naturals. Tensions between them are leaving the expedition in jeopardy.

John Smith is captured by the Powhatans. He is about to be executed when Pocahontas saves his life.

Smith is actually treated well by his new Indian friends. He comes to respect them, and they respect him.

When Smith returns to the Jamestown settlement, the place is in turmoil. He is pressed to accept the governorship, and accepts.

Smith desperately wants to return to the Indians, and to his love. But he does not allow this. He considers his time among the Powhatans to be a dream of sorts.

The settlement dwindles during the rough winter, but they're saved when Pocahontas comes bearing food and supplies. She arrives with a rescue party.

When Powhatan learns of his daughter's kindness, he exiles her. He also plans an attack on Jamestown.

As leverage, the people of Jamestown decide to abduct Pocahontas from her exile and use her as a tool for negotiation. John Smith doesn't like that idea.

When Pocahontas is brought to Jamestown, she and Smith renew their love. But the honeymoon doesn't last for long.

Captain Newport returns and offers Smith his own expedition. The king has commissioned it.

Smith chose duty over love. He returned to England, and gave a settler instructions to tell Pocahontas that he died at sea.

Pocahontas decides to stay in Jamestown and become a proper English woman. She adapts to her new way of life.

Pocahontas decides to marry John Rolfe. She gives birth to a son she names Thomas.

OK, that was an easy one. Pocahontas learns that John Smith is still alive. The information is accompanied by a violent reaction.

Pocahontas eventually goes to England with her husband. She meets both the king and queen, and encounters John Smith.

Although not a disaster, the reunion is uncomfortable for both. They have changed, and they have their regrets.

John Smith refers to their time back in Virginia as "the only truth." He said that he regrets having left his love for his job.

Smith's memorable line, "I may have sailed past them," can have many meanings. It really means that he sailed past what he really wanted in life.

Pocahontas finally realizes that Rolfe is the man for her, after all. She embraces his love, and never sees Smith again.

Pocahontas and Rolfe decide to return to Virginia. She is excited to return to her old life, and leave the past behind.

Sadly, Pocahontas falls ill from pneumonia and she dies before she can return to Virginia. One of the many ills of the New World.

The film ends with the image of an English garden. A young adult Pocahontas is dancing with her son.

This is a voice over quote from Pocahontas. It's the very last line said in the film, as the camera pans across the New World.
