BR: Pocahontas

I'd rather die tomorrow, than live a hundred years without knowing you.

This is North America in 1607, there are a beautiful young girl and a brave Englishman. She has black eyes, and he has blue eyes. They fall in love but the love is not easy. The girl is the daughter of King Powhatan, and the Englishman is a white man. And the Indians of Virginia don't want the white man in their beautiful country.
This is a sad love story, and I was moved. After reading, I was little bit sad. I want to watch this movie someday.

Fill the air with music. Fill the house with light. Fill the sleepy lovers' heads With happy dreams tonight. (p.47) This wonderful story of fairlies, dreams and lovers is as popular today as it was in Shakespeare's time. In a wood outside Athens, for young people are following their dreams, while fairlies play strange games with them. Their world seems unreal. I read Shakespeare's book for the first time, and it was an interesting story. I can't believe that fairlies have some problems as humans.
