Tarzan (Special Edition)
Description
Swing into action and adventure with Disney’s original classic, TARZAN(R),
packed with fun-filled bonus features and award-winning music such as the
memorable “You’ll Be In My Heart” and “Trashin’ The Camp.” Disney’s
magnificent animated adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs’s story of the ape man
begins deep within the jungle when baby Tarzan is adopted by a family of
gorillas. Even though he is shunned as a “hairless wonder” by their leader,
Tarzan is accepted by the gorillas and raised as one of their own. Together
with his wisecracking ape buddy Terk and neurotic elephant pal Tantor, Tarzan
learns how to “surf” and swing through the trees and survive in the animal
kingdom. His “Two Worlds” collide with the arrival of humans, forcing Tarzan
to choose between a “civilized” life with the beautiful Jane and the life he
knows and loves with his gorilla family. Filled with humor, heart, and
hilarious fun, TARZAN(R) is an unforgettable adventure you’ll watch again and
again.~~TARZAN(R) Owned by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc. And Used by Permission.

second most-filmed subject in Hollywood history (topped only by DRACULA) and
one of the all-time most popular with moviegoers.|To help prepare them for the
film, the directors and a group of artistic supervisors set out on an African
safari in March 1996, touring the animal reserves in Kenya, visiting the
mountain gorillas in Uganda, and observing Bwindi’s Impenetrable Forest.|The
city of Tarzana is named after “Tarzan” author Edgar Rice Burroughs’ 550-acre
Tarzana Ranch, which he later sold to housing developers.|Reportedly,
Burroughs was never satisfied with the various screen versions of his book,
but according his grandson Danton Burroughs, the Disney version would have
pleased his grandfather.
