King Kong: Monster and Myth

Directed by Laurent Herbiet

Written by Michel Le Bris, Laurent Herbiet, Michel Cieutat

In 1933, Merian C. Cooper and Ernest B. Schoedsack, two audacious and visionary directors, dared to create a motion picture that eclipsed everything seen until then: when King Kong was released, it was celebrated as an artistic and technical revolution and became the first myth created by the young cinematic art.
