在迪士尼几十年以来的卡通长片经典中， 《风中奇缘》可以说是非常特别的一部，因为这是在所有以“人”为主角的迪士尼卡通里面，头一次让“有色人种”当主角，而且也不是以“皆大欢喜”作为故事的结局。而尽管我对这个故事已经十分熟悉，但是每次重新观赏、特别是在听到片中著名的插曲“Colors of the Wind”的时候，都仍然难免有许多感慨。Alan Menken为《风中奇缘》(Pocahontas)配乐，填词由两获格林美的奖斯蒂芬.舒瓦兹(Stephen Schwartz)操刀，主唱则请来范妮莎.威廉姆斯(Vanessa Williams)，使片中那种深沉的感伤、却又自由新生的浪漫气氛展露无遗。风之彩(Colors Of The Wind)也因此获得了第六十八届奥斯卡最佳电影歌曲。
