Kong was conceived by director/producer Merian C. Cooper. Cooper tells the story of an attractive blonde woman and a frightening gigantic ape-monster who are immersed in a Beauty and the Beast type tale. A major section of the film is the struggle on Skull Island between the filmmakers, the islanders, and the other resident of the island. The other resident being a mutant creature who must also fight civilization when it is brought to New York City for display. From the beginning of the movie, its screenplay by James Creelman and Ruth Rose foretells the coming terror. The film included many revolutionary technical innovations for its time, and some of the best stop-action animation ever sequences and special effects (by Willis O'Brien) ever captured.
Classic stories remain a classic because they convey a message which appeals to people of multiple generations despite changes in society. King Kong was released in print in 1932, a year prior to its release in Hollywood, as a part of the film’s advance marketing. The public of this generation easily accepted the story’s racist, colonialist, and sexist themes. Today, literary critics such as Cynthia Erb view the novel and film as representation of the early 30s and thus a resource to understand the cultural context of the times. In particular, King Kong provides a window through which a modern audience can understand and interpret racism of the 1930s.
In the film the King of Kong, it is seen that there are many possibilities to creating a thesis statement related to a known film since 2007, but the movie encounters a few similarities regarding both of the main protagonist of the film. In the King of Kong, Seth Gorden used his abilities as a director to show the audience that even though Steve Wiebe and Billy Mitchell were or are still rivals, they still had a similarity of deep comprehensive intelligence, and the documentation of their supporters.
The pristine 1933 King Kong was constructed as a movie: to convey a story to entertain an audience. Peter Jackson’s 2005 remake took the substructure for King Kong and expanded upon it in virtually every way in order to “make again” the astoundment of the original for a modern-day audience. Audiences received the first King Kong very well. The stop-motion sequences of Kong were astounding for their time and the movie grossed over $90,000 in its beginning weekend. In order to bank upon its prosperity again, sequels were made and thus in 1976 a remake was made to amend upon the original. Paramount updated the movie to color, altered the story, and cast Jeff Bridges, a widely popular actor of the time, as the lead actor. Although the movie received stirred reviews, it did exceptionally well in the box office and tripled Paramount’s initial budget for the motion picture. Even though the movie wasn’t “as good” as the original, audiences still paid money to view it because of that hope that they would feel like they once did when they visually perceived the first King Kong. The remake add...
King Kong was a revolutionary film, in the aspect of the music score it accompanied. Max Steiner known as “the father of film music,” was responsible to writing the legendary score for King Kong. Steiner made a revolutionary move in the way sound is presented in a movie by introducing “Mickey Mousing.” This concept is where the sound matches what is going on in screen, such as when the leader is walking towards the lady in the beginning of the movie; the music matches his footsteps. What is also interesting in King Kong was some scenes had action that did not require music—the fighting scene with the dinosaur. The noise was enough to convey the feeling of intensity that music was not needed for that point, also the scene with the planes flying around King Kong. King Kong’s personality is shown through the music, with intense music at parts and solemn music at others, conveying his emotions through the music played.
There are a lot of people who either wonder or believe that violent media is bad for people and mostly children. Not all violent media is bad. Sometimes when people have a stressful day they will play video games to let off steam. A few people like watching horror movies because of the thrill of being scared. But if you’re a kid with no friends or you are alone most of the time, you might enjoy comic books. They are filled with action and heroes. Doing any of these can give off a sense of adventure, thrill, and excitement. It doesn’t mean that you’re going to go off and start hurting people because of it. There is a lot of evidence that states the media affects viewers by encouraging violent behavior and weakening their creative ability. The question is whether the media is truly the problem, or is it the parental role that is the problem.
For my first screening report I decided to watch the film, King Kong. The original King Kong was produced in 1933 by Merian C Cooper and Ernest B Schoedsack. This film was an 1:40:15 in length and was full of some great actors and a great actress. Some of the actors/actresses included Fay Wray who played Ann, Robert Armstrong who played Carl, Bruce Cabot who played John, and Frank Reicher who played Captain Englehorn. Not only with these great actors/actresses, but also a great story line is what allowed this film to become a later success. What I mean by later is that King Kong did not win an Academy Award but later on it would be noticed for is production. The film has since received some significant honors. In 1975, Kong was named one of the 50 best American films by the American Film Institute, and, in 1991, the film was deemed "culturally, historically and aesthetically significant" by the Library of Congress and selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry. In 1988, King Kong was also awarded by being ranked #43 on its list of the 100 greatest movies of all time.
