...his white teeth and red mouth adding to the terror of the spectacle.

What red? Isn't this in black and white?

See if you can find a King Kong review (original movie)

I don't normally do requests, but your wish is granted. Though why you want to read a five-and-a-half-year-old movie review is beyond me.

I still think Fay Wray is the prettiest girl in the movies, and boy can she scream! It’s her voice they use on tracks for a good female scream.

I’m proud to say my grandmother and grandfather let Robert Armstrong sleep on their couch on their honeymoon night.

He was a friend and new in the business and lived in an apartment with some friends, was out partying in Manhattan and too drunk to go home.

Good thing Kong didn’t peak in the window and see the man who introduced him to Beauty.

In grade school, I did a reort on movie special effects. Prior to 2001: A Space Oddesy, the old King Kong was considered to be state of the art.

BTW - The most recent remake of King Kong was actually quite good and in almost every way, superior to the original. Long, but really well done.

The reviewer didn’t even put up a spoiler alert. I never saw the movie, and now I know how it ends. Sheesh!

I wont archive this one since it is over 5 years old.

Hopefully things will slow down some and I’ll be able to contribute more to these threads soon. We are reaching some real big events with what’s going on with Czechoslovakia and the comming apex of the Battle of Wuhan.

I started reading a book last night on Edward Chapman (Zigzag). So far it’s pretty interesting and might make a good side story down the road.

WTF? What inspired you to post this?

I know that in some countries, the movie was referred to as "King Kong and the White Woman."
