King Kong und die weisse Frau - King Kong (1933)
SDP
Ein
Filmteam fährt mit einem Schiff auf eine geheimnisvolle Insel. Dort werden sie
von bestialischen Wilden und einem riesigen Affen angegriffen. Der Affe – King
Kong – entführt die schöne Hauptdarstellerin, da das Filmteam grossen Profit im
Fang des Affens sehen, wollen sie ihn mit allen Mitteln einfangen! Was auch nach
zahlreichen Verlusten gelingt! In New York stellen sie ihre Beute aus, was
bekanntlich zur Katastrophe führt! King Kong reisst aus und entführt nochmals
die Schauspielerin, dabei zerstört er halb New York!
1933 war King Kong ein Meisterwerk der Tricktechnik! Bis anhin (1933) gab es
nichts vergleichbares. Doch einige Szenen waren den Studiobossen zu heiss, sie
wurden entfernt und blieben lange Zeit verschollen. Ein Remake in den 70 ziger
Jahren war eher mässig mit Erfolg bedacht. 2005 brachte Peter Jackson sein
langes Remake heraus, dass sich eng an die Vorlage von 1933 anlehnt! Die DVD
bietet zusätzlich Starinfos, Fotogalerie, Dokumentation usw..
Hintergrundinfos:
Im Original war der Riesenaffe ein 45 cm Modell, das per Stop-Motion bewegt
wurde. Der Film kostete die damals enorme Summe von 750'000 $!
