Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes (1984)
1984 | Adventure | Drama
135 mins
Hugh Hudson (Chariots of Fire) directs this lavish adaption highlighting the legendary character's dual nature as master of the African jungle and as John Clayton, seventh Earl of Greystoke, heir to one of Scotland’s great estates.
An infant raised to manhood among savage apes, living by his wits and the law of the jungle, returns to society to claim his inheritance of humanity and privilege. This collision of "wild" and "civilized" worlds is the extraordinary saga of Tarzan, chronicled in Edgar Rice Burroughs' popular book series.
Christopher Lambert (in the title role), Andie MacDowell (in her movie debut) and Sir Ralph Richardson (in one of his final performances) star in this "ravishing, magical epic" (Guy Flatley, Cosmopolitan).
