Tarzan of the Apes
Tarzan did not know why he caressed her... He had never seen a white woman before!
Directed by Scott Sidney
Produced by National Film Corporation of America
A swashbuckling silent-era adventure that blends primal jungle action with an emerging romance between a wild man and a civilized woman.
A female ape takes to mothering the orphaned boy (Tarzan) and raises him over the course of many years until a rescue mission is finally launched and the search party combs the jungle for the long-time missing Lord Greystoke. But then, one of the search members, Jane Porter, gets separated from the group and comes face to face with fearsome wild animals. Tarzan saves her from harm just in the knick of time and love begins to blossom.
