Movie is a new form of literary works which has a big influence to society in the modern era. In this research, Blood Diamonds movie becomes the main object. The movie presents the colonialism issue such as colonization and domination. In 1990s, the civil war brings people of Sierra Leona to the chaotic condition. This condition attracts many attentions. Thus, the exploitation of natural resource, which is the diamond, becomes the main conflict in the movie. In this research, the writer aims to reveal the colonialism process in the modern era. This paper is qualitative research. It applies the post-colonial theory as the main theory and movie theory as the supporting theory. It focuses on the portrayal of colonized and colonizer people as seen on both of characters; Danny Archer and Solomon Vandy. Both characters show the attribute of binary opposition and also show the characteristic of post-colonial such as, colonization and domination. The movie presents the colonized people as people with some characteristics; brutal, childlike and disordered mind. Meanwhile the colonizer is presented as mature, crafty and clever person. The writer concludes that the colonized people are shown as paralyzed people who are hardly to determine their own best, struggle and future. Meanwhile, the colonizer is shown as the ruler and the determiner for the colonized people’s live.
