KING KONG (1933). Still wanting to go to the jungle, even after all the TARZAN films
. Saw this in the theater when I was eight on a 1970 re-issue....was really in to dinosaurs and just loved this from beginning to end. Surprised they did not eject me from the theater during the Kong/T-Rex square off!
Moved a lot as a kid and started watching sports while living above Chicago IL (really no interest) to try to fit in at school. During the Jan 1977 Super Bowl (Know Oakland Raiders won), a station out of Milwaukee WI was showing KING KONG the same time. You can probably deduce what I watched that day.
Still love this and can only shake my head at fools who try to find all sorts of racial/social/sexual messages in the film. You only need to know it's a great entertaining movie...PERIOD! *****
