The New World looks gorgeous.

It's coming out in a few months, I can't wait.

The director of "The Thin Red Line" made this, and critics are in love with him - but the story of Pocahontas is easy to shoot down for historical mythologizing, e.g. conflating John Rolfe with John Smith, constructing or reconstructing the Noble Savage trope, etc. So I'm a little worried that lazy critics are going to pounce on the easy stuff and call it a pretty fiction. But browsing the film website's blog, it looks like the movie involves a detailed level of truth to ethnographic, technological and eco-political history. I can't figure out what they're doing with Colin's character though, no specific hints on who John Smith is to Terrence Malick, other than a romantic hero.

There's also "Ask the Dust," a drama based on a novel, being filmed in South Africa, and beyond that I have no idea what it's about. Don't know when to expect it, either.

Colin is currently filming 'Miami Vice' (based on the television show) in Florida until the end of September. Then he will be in the Dominican Republic and Ciudad del Este, Paraguay for 6 weeks after that to finish the film.

'The New World' is his next film which will be released early next year. I think 'Ask the Dust' will be released sometime after that. He then is doing an ensemble piece based on Bob Dylan's (the singer) book called "I'm Not There: Suppositions on a Film Concerning Dylan". I am not sure exactly what this is about.

And no, I am not Colin's agent. I have been keeping up with a few of his projects, but it's all information that is out there on the Internet.
