Queen Elizabeth II is
visiting Virginia this week in honor of the 400-year anniversary of the
Jamestown colony. The story of
Pocahontas was depicted in
The New World, and while the film was probably the most beautiful reel of celluloid ever, it doesn't stick to the facts. For instance, it's believed that Pocahontas was anywhere between 8 and 12 years old when John Smith arrived, so the idea that they fell in love is, well, wrong in so many ways.
