King Kong
King Kong is a visual metaphor for the perceived rage of African people, which in those days resided in the male. The movie makers were trying to show that the African was as wild as the animals that they live with. King Kong warned the world that if you bring the African to the city, civilization, they will destroy everything violently. Not only that, the African male is obsessed with the white female. The movie explains that the brutal African male will overwhelm the weak white female. The Peter Jackson remake of King Kong added a little to the story. The people of the mysterious island where King Kong lives in Jackson’s version are not as dark and have blue eyes. This says that Europeans have been here. This King Kong is a little colonized and a lot more scarred. Jackson’s King Kong gives the African male a few more feelings, but in the end the African male is just as obsessed with the white female and just as violent as ever. King Kong is one of the greatest metaphors in cinematic history because it is clear and wildly entertaining.
