King Kong
King Kong (1933) starring Fay Wray, Bruce Cabot, Robert Armstrong
To be clear, this is the original King Kong movie, not the 1976 remake, or the more recent remake by Peter Jackson. Both remakes are enjoyable in their own right although I strongly prefer Jackson’s. This is the original, a movie that is still watched more than 80 years after its original release. There are good reasons for that.
