Tarzan

About

The 1999 Disney animated film Tarzan tells the story of a young boy raised by gorillas in the jungle. After his parents are killed in a shipwreck, Kala, a compassionate gorilla, finds and adopts him. As Tarzan grows, he faces challenges fitting in with his gorilla family due to his human nature. He befriends Terk and Tantor, and his bravery earns him respect from Kerchak, the gorilla leader. The arrival of British explorers, including Jane Porter, introduces Tarzan to his human roots, leading to a journey of self-discovery. The film features a memorable soundtrack by Phil Collins, with hits like "You'll Be in My Heart" and "Strangers Like Me." These songs capture the emotional depth of Tarzan's journey and the jungle's vibrant atmosphere. The movie balances action, romance, and drama as Tarzan navigates his dual identities and confronts the villainous Clayton. Ultimately, Tarzan becomes the leader of the gorillas, embracing both his human and jungle upbringing. The film's themes of belonging and identity are beautifully woven throughout its engaging narrative.
