(OK) It has flaws and takes too log to began, but Van Dyke and all MGM discover here a new world , a new saga of elements and society and love epic learning... O'Sullivan manipuates Tarzan, that´s clear....

Description: "Me beefcake. You bossy." That kind of sums up the dynamics of 1932's Tarzan, the Ape Man, which stars an incredibly hulking Johnny Weissmuller as Tarzan and Maureen O'Sullivan as the gorgeous accidental feminist who finds true love with you-know-who in the jungle. Some of the footage in the first Tarzan talkie is comically dated--scenes of the British adventurers seem superimposed over stock footage of tribesmen and African vistas.
