Johnny Weissmuller as “Tarzan” and Maureen O'Sullivan are again united in a jungle love story based on the famous fiction characters created by Edgar Rice Burroughs, that have been read by 15,000,000 people in English alone, with trans- lations into fifteen foreign langu- ages! Into the primitive romance is packed a series of animal scenes that have never been equalled in the filming of adventure pictures for the screen. Herds of elephants are shown charging members of a safari followed by a mixed fight between elephants and fifty lions | with Weissmuller in the middle of the struggle. Other animal thrills include a batile to the death between Weiss- muller and a man-eating crocodile lat a depth of more 1 thirt | feet under water photo phed by | submerged cameras. Herds of ze- { bras, wunderbeeste, gorill »strich | flocks and many smaller animals are also shown. This is not to be confused with any previous Tarzan pictures which have been presented here, as it i jan entirely different, new and | greater portrayal of Tarzan. A " strong romance between Weissmul- last—the ideal “family pic- ler and Maureen O'Sullivan adds considerable real beauty to this great film.
