The Statue of Liberty ending in the original was shocking as hell for 1968 audiences.

I remember seeing it in the movie theater. And also - in the human round-up scene where the gorilla wheels around on the horse, and the camera zooms in on him and you see exactly what is chasing the people... Brrr... that freaked me out.

Indeed, indeed.

I’ve always has a vision of seeming one of the “gorillas” wearing nothing but a diaper.

More than that it was real actors, actors who knew how to act like Heston.

He made it work , so did the others.

That seems to be a unappreciated art now. Forgive me for sounding like my dad's generation but we are devolving. .
