Description of this King Kong Poster
King Kong is a 1933 American adventure film directed by Merian C. Cooper and Ernest B. Schoedsack and starring Fay Wray, Robert Armstrong and Bruce Cabot as the lead actors. The film was produced by the film company RKO Pictures and written by Ruth Rose and James Ashmore Creelman, based on an idea by Merian C. Cooper and Edgar Wallace
It is about the discovery of Kong, a giant gorilla, on a lost prehistoric island and how he was captured and brought to civilization against his will.
In 1932, a year before the film's release, Delos W. Lovelace released a novelization of the King Kong screenplay, with some scenes not present in the film. King Kong was first released in New York on March 7, 1933 at Radio City Music Hall.
Director Carl Denham is looking for a girl for his new film, but none of his likes appear. When he decides to search for her personally, he finds Ann Darrow, a stage actress unemployed due to the Depression of 1929, and convinces her to accompany him on a boat. Soon after, they set sail aboard the Venture, where they sailed for several weeks toward Indonesia, where Denham wanted to make the film.
Finally, when they arrive at the location chosen for the filming, Denham reveals his goal to Englehorn, captain of the Venture: the destination of the trip is an island that does not appear on the maps, the island of Calavera, where there has a mysterious being called Kong, who wants to film.
When they arrive on the island, they discover a home village and realize that there is a wall separating the town from most of the island. Although Denham, Englehorn and Ann hide among the foliage, the tribe's leader discovers them. The captain, who understands the Aboriginal language, tries to get Denham to befriend the chief and, when he sees Ann, he offers to trade her for six women from the tribe. The director rejects the proposal and the aborigines decide to go to the ship at night to kidnap the girl; when the crew members realize this, they go looking for him.
In the village, the natives perform a ritual to summon their idol Kong and deliver Ann as a sacrifice; the crew arrives in time to prevent it and scares the aborigines away by shooting them, but Kong manages to take the girl and they have to chase them into the prehistoric jungle behind the wall. The crew, following Kong's trail, are attacked and pursued by a sauropod dinosaur and they must cross a cliff on a bridge. Kong pursues and breaks up the bridge, leaving only two crew members to survive: John Driscoll, who had hidden in a cave between the cliff walls, and Carl Denham, who remained in the village.
Kong begins to develop a strange attraction to Ann and must fight off a tyrannosaurus that attacks him. So the gorilla and the girl head to a cave to rest, and Driscoll follows them there. Driscoll accidentally knocks over a rock and attracts Kong's attention, but at the time, Ann is attacked by a pterosaur and the gorilla confronts him. Although distracted, John takes the opportunity to go down with the girl for a vine, but at the end of the fight with the pterosaur, Kong begins to pull her with no choice but to jump into a river. Furious, the gorilla chases them to the village and, upon reaching the coast, is knocked out by a grenade thrown by Denham.
Immediately, they decide to transport Kong to New York, to be publicly displayed in a theater tent. Kong's contact with a world he does not know and his love for Ann enrage him until he is freed and left to roam the city. Kong searches for the girl and upon finding her, he takes her up to the Empire State Building, where she is attacked by Curtiss SBC Helldiver of the Navy, who manages to force her out of the building and to her death.
