The plot of a play
King Kong, a giant African ape, was caught by Carl who made this film and taken to new york. There, it became a watching monster, but it fell in love with a beautiful woman. In order to chase her, she escaped from her master's cage, crossed the streets of new york, and finally climbed to the top of the Empire State Building, which was just built at that time, and was buried in the bullets of the plane. People can't help asking: did the plane kill the beast or did the beauty kill the beast?
be in the background
This movie is a combination of animation, real people and models, and it is the first stunt movie. The "Beauty and the Beast" mode initiated by this film has spawned numerous imitations. In "immediate family", 1963' s Japanese film "King Kong and Godzilla" confronts two monsters; 1976, the United States launched a color remake, starring Jessica Lan Zhi, and the climax scene was changed to the World Trade Center. Of course, the special effects are much better than the original. 1986, the sequel "King Kong Never Dies", starring linda hamilton. It is expected that the latest deluxe edition of Peter Jackson will be released at the end of 2005.

abstract
1933 In the United States, the Great Depression and the blind spirit of exploration inspired everyone to explore unfamiliar areas and explore unknown living space. The beautiful actress Ann (naomi watts) feels more and more depressed in new york. When her career was at a low ebb, the ambitious filmmaker Carl (Jack Black) brought her good luck. She will be the star of the latest movie, which will be filmed in Skull Island. Ann hopes that this paradise near Sumatra will bring her a journey full of excitement and excitement.
Accidentally, the ship finally ran aground in Carl's ideal destination-Skeleton Island. But just before Carl excitedly started his own giant shooting, a group of aboriginal savages suddenly attacked and killed several members. Finally escaped from the savage's clutches and set sail to escape, but petite Ann was taken away. Skull Island with a strange name is really dangerous. Needless to say, those savage aborigines, dinosaurs and wild animals are everywhere. In order to save Ann, everyone had to go back.
Ann, who was sacrificed by the native savage, couldn't help screaming. The scream unexpectedly caught King Kong's "attention". This legendary orangutan is so big that even fierce dinosaurs are afraid of it. It falls in love with Ann. However, what it doesn't know is that this is the beginning of its tragic fate. ...
Behind the scenes comment
1933 version of King Kong has a high popularity among fans. Because it not only represents a simple film work, it even drives a trend of film art. Since the mighty chimpanzee first boarded the Empire State Building 72 years ago, it has appeared in countless TV series, even in the Disney cartoon "Four-eyed Frog", which recently swept the box office in North America, familiar classic scenes can be seen.
Remember 1976, John Gilleming spent a huge sum of money equivalent to 65 million dollars to remake King Kong. Except that the scene of the King Kong Warrior was moved from the Empire State Building to the destroyed "World Trade Twin Cities" in "9. 1 1", the development of other stories and scene settings are almost the same as the original. However, the film uses Think, and merian Cooper only spent $680,000 to shoot the black-and-white classic "King Kong". The gorilla on the screen is actually only a dozen meters high, but the close-up shot used to shoot Ann is made of an 8-meter-long "giant arm", and its sturdy body is made of plastic and rabbit hair only. You can imagine how "humble" this monster is. However, in the eyes of the audience, this King Kong is unparalleled. I really admire the first exciting visual effect made by Willis Brehong for this film more than half a century ago. It's a pity that Oscar didn't win the Best Visual Effect Award. Plus 1933 version of King Kong's imaginative creativity and special effects, it is not much worse than the current Hollywood CG movies. ...
A brief review of movies
As early as 1933, 72 years ago, a huge orangutan was holding a sexy girl by the hand, and let one hand climb to the top of the Empire State Building in New York, as if the world had sworn their loyalty and persistence in love. However, the barbarians conquered this powerful animal from the primitive tribe with their arrogant posture, mocking voice and proud soldiers. ...
The birth of the film "King Kong" can be said to be inevitable and accidental in the history of movies. Let's talk about necessity first. By the time the film, a special artistic expression, developed to that era, more and more complex expressions and alternative themes were put on the big screen by clever filmmakers. Godzilla, the once-popular giant monster, and the giant marshmallows in Ghostbusters are getting more and more attention and love from fans. As a result, a close relative from our parallel world like King Kong unexpectedly stepped onto the big screen. In addition, the continuous innovation of film production technology also makes this kind of film stunt more and more mature in actual film works, which can drive people's interest in this kind of film more and more.
Comment in one sentence
The eighth wonder of the world.
Say "beauty kills the beast", this is just Peter? Jackson could not find North's self-expansion.
-Philadelphia Weekly
Peter Jackson transformed King Kong into the most horrible and affectionate monster movie of this century, which can make you laugh and cry.
-new york Daily News
The film can only be called an efficient and energy-saving entertainment collection. It can be seen that the film that Peter Jackson made with great efforts was finally out of his control.
New Yorker
"King Kong" has won the respect and praise that the remake has never received.
Seattle post
Wonderful dialogue
Carl Dunham: Look, the beast is staring at the beautiful face. Beauty remained in his hands. From that day on, he was like a dead man.
Carl. Dunham: Look, the beast looks at the beauty's face, and the beauty is sitting in the beast's hand. From that day on, the beast entered the abyss of death.
Carl Dunham: It's $2,000. Do you accept checks?
Captain Engelhorn: Do I have a choice?
Carl. Dunham: Two thousand dollars. Do you accept checks?
H: What other choice do I have?
Captain Engelhorn: This is the characteristic of cockroaches. No matter how many times you flush them into the toilet, they will always climb back into the toilet.
Captain Huo of England: Like cockroaches, no matter how many times you flush them down the toilet, they can still climb back to the toilet.
Carl Dunham: We will finish this film, dedicate it to him, and give the proceeds to his wife and children.
Carl. Dunham: We must finish this film and dedicate it to him. All the profits will be distributed to his wife and children.
Carl Dunham: Ladies and gentlemen ... please welcome ... Kong! The eighth wonder of the world!
Carl. Ladies and gentlemen ... I will bring you the eighth wonder of the world-King Kong.
Carl Dunham: I keep telling you, Jack, there is no money in the theater. That's why you should stick to movies.
Jack driscoll: No, Carl, I like drama.
Carl Dunham: No, you don't. If you really like it, you will jump.
Carl. Dunham: Jack, I have said more than once that you can't make money from drama. You should write plays full time.
Jack. Carl, you are wrong. I like drama.
Carl. Dunham: No, you didn't. If you really like drama, you will jump off the boat and swim back.
Carl Dunham: Monsters belong to class B movies.
Carl. Dunham: Only B-rated movies have monsters.
Jack driscoll: Taxi! Follow that ape!
Jack. Taxi! Follow that gorilla!
Carl Dunham: Oh, no, not a plane; It was the beauty who killed the beast.
Carl. No, not a plane. It was the beauty who killed the beast.
A (movie) fiasco
When everyone went to Skull Island, Hayes, equivalent to the vice captain, told Jimmy, a teenager, that he had been an instructor in the army ... However, it was not until 1964 that the US Army established the rank of instructor. Before that, the correct name should be "Military Training Instructor" (MIL
Ann Law Hero and King Kong meet in the streets of new york and stare at each other as if time would stop. The lens kept switching between the two, and when King Kong was photographed, there were snowflakes all over the sky. However, when the camera turned to Ann, the density of snow miraculously decreased-it is estimated that even snowflakes felt sorry for seeing Ann dressed so thinly. This makes King Kong a little less authentic, because it immediately brought Ann to the top of the Empire State Building with lower temperature and stronger wind …
King kong history
Let's briefly review the vicissitudes of King Kong for more than 70 years.
King Kong (1933)
"Classic" can't be said. Let's have a quiet aftertaste.
Son of Kong (1933)
It is not surprising that this follow-up work appeared in the same year after the big sale of King Kong, and it was written by Skodsaka, one of the directors of King Kong. The story continues the content of King Kong. Carl, the director of this film, continued to live a sinful life after he survived. After returning to Skull Island, he sneaked into King Kong's lair again, waiting for him was an orangutan one size smaller than King Kong. King Kong's son was confused by Carl's banana. ...
King Kong appeared in Endo (1938)
The cunning Japanese also smelled the "King Kong". However, compared with the power of Hollywood, this Japanese King Kong movie is Oketa. However, although Japanese orangutans are much worse, they have created another monster-Godzilla.
King Kong (1962)
This is an orangutan from Bollywood, India in South Asia. But its fate is worse than that of the Japanese. I can't find any information except leaving a name.
King Kong vs Godzilla (1962)
People have been looking forward to this day since the day 1954 Godzilla was born. This year, the two monsters of the East and the West confronted each other for the first time. However, in the films released in Japan and the United States, it is fair to say that there are different endings. Of course, the result is that each wins a game and everyone is happy.
Mount Tai and King Kong (1965)
Poor Bollywood, inspired by the Japanese, remembered another jungle hero and put him with King Kong. But what is even more pitiful this time is that the filmmakers were banned by domestic audiences before they could give the story of Mount Tai King Kong to their eldest brother Hollywood for appreciation.
King Kong escaped (1967)
In the 1960s, the Japanese seemed to have a soft spot for this chimpanzee. I played all kinds of Godzilla stories and kept showing off the magical experience of King Kong. Just reading his story can be shocking: scientists created a mechanical King Kong to dig the mysterious X element in the Arctic, while Dr. Evil kidnapped the real King Kong to do the same job. So there is bound to be a series of fierce fights between the mechanical king kong and the prototype.
Ape/New King Kong (1976)
The chimpanzee in the story is exactly the same as the original except that he is an out-and-out villain. His destructive power on the screen is really unbearable.
King Kong: Legendary Rebirth (1976)
Pure remake,
King Kong Life (1986)
King Kong, who entered the 1980s, also got a little yuppie flavor. First I climbed to the top floor of the World Trade Center, and then a female orangutan came from the rainforest. Although cruel humans killed the brave King Kong, they left the female orangutan a chance to live.
Powerful King Kong (1998)
This is the story of the last orangutan in the twentieth century, which is completely different from its predecessors. Words like adventure and terror have nothing to do with this. In this musical cartoon, this huge chimpanzee can dance with beautiful women. ...
King Kong (2005)
This is the most anticipated movie this year. Let's relive the classic moment with the lingering charm.
