Description:
An infant raised to manhood among savage apes, living by his wits and the law of the jungle, returns to society to claim his inheritance of humanity and privilege. This collision of "wild" and "civilized" worlds is the extraordinary saga of Tarzan, chronicled in Edgar Rice Burroughs' popular book series. Starring: Christopher Lambert, Andie MacDowell, Ian Holm
Amazon.com:
One of those legendary missed opportunities, Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes is a movie that should have been great but wound up the victim of conflicting egos and wrong-headed choices. Based on a screenplay by Robert Towne (who took his name off it when he wasn't allowed to direct) and directed by Hugh Hudson (riding high on the basis of Chariots of Fire), the film tried to rethink the Tarzan legend of Edgar Rice Burroughs, and boy, did it have to: By casting French-accented Christopher Lambert as Tarzan, the filmmakers had to transform his white-hunter mentor Ian Holm into a Frenchman to explain those inflections in Tarzan's monosyllabic speech. The film has some amazing jungle footage and a truly touching relationship between Tarzan and the apes--but it gets pretty silly when Tarzan gets to London and hooks up with Sir Ralph Richardson, as his grandfather. -–Marshall Fine

I grew up with the Tarzan movies and TV show and read all the Edgar Rice Burroughs novels and this one, "Tarzan, the Legend of Greystoke" is my very favorite of all of them. The storyline and actors are all superb. You can't beat it.

I have been on a Tarzan kick ever since I bought my 70's cartoons I grew up with
TARZAN: HA-HA-HA N'KEEMA
Anyway I thought I'd tell ya about this little gem GREYSTOKE THE LEGEND OF TARZAN. This is probably the best adaption of Tarzan(wait I love Johnny as well just this script was very strong) Of course you know the story. Tarzan
and his family who are dead are marooned in the jungle and Tarzan is raised
by the Apes to grow up and become LORD OF THE JUNGLE what I really ... Read More

I suppose one of the "themes" to this film, was that love has no limits, and anyone can be a father, or mother, but not anyone can be a Daddy and Mommy. And that family dosn't necessariy mean "blood," but means that wherever there is love, and support, respect and kindness..that can be a real family. Christopher Lambert certainly made a sexy Tarzan, made me wonder about the "animal" in all of us. Also, the theme of using animals for testing whatever, the cruelty of it. How human beings can be so clueless ... Read More

Wow, I was mesmerized with this movie - have seen it more than once, and my kids did too. Andie McDowell is wonderful anyway, then add the other great actors and the historical flavor - then the moral and ethical issues each character is dealing with. Wow.

I think this has to be one of the best "retellings" of the Tarzan phenomenon. I just recently saw this movie for the first time, and I think the scenes were great, and the photography was out of this world. However, I do not think this is a film that would be great for the entire family to see.
This film was made back in 1983, then released in 1984. At that time, other movies were beginning to make their mark as going "over the line". Movies such as "Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom" and ... Read More
