King Kong (1933) is the world famous introduction of the large ape and beauty and the beast narrative that has become a perpetual classic. The film has been remade multiple times and Kong himself has appeared in many other films.

Everyone knows the story by now, but in case you don’t it is about a filmmaker and his team who travel to an exotic location to shoot a movie where they encounter a giant ape named Kong and are attacked by him and dinosaurs on this exotic island. They end up capturing Kong and returning him to New York where he causes havoc. The film stars Fay Wray, Robert Armstrong, and Bruce Cabot.
