Description
In 1933, Merian C. Cooper, Ernest Schoedsack, and Willis O'Brien created more than movie magic. King Kong is a pop-cultural icon and a central part of American mythology. But more than just another "Beauty and the Beast" tale, Kong Unbound also allows us to examine such themes as:
* The Great Depression and America's place in the world * Kong as Avatar of Repressed Sexual Energy * Kong as a Symbol of Slavery and Racism * Kong as Alternate Paleontology * The Triumph of Technology over the Natural World
These themes and more are explored in this wonderful collection of insightful essays by:
