A gorilla looks after a human child in Tarzan
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Disney's Tarzan scores a perfect grade from a primate expert. Released in 1999 and directed by Chris Buck and Kevin Lima, Tarzan adapts a story first published in 1912 by Edgar Rice Burroughs about a man raised from a baby by apes. The animated Disney film, which features voice performances from Tony Goldwyn and Minnie Driver, earned positive reviews from critics and was a box office hit.
The film ultimately earns a perfect score for its depiction of a leopard attack scene, though Mayor admits that the concept of a human being raised by apes is implausible. Check out Mayor's comments below: “So in the scene where you see Tarzan being raised by apes, that is highly unlikely and almost impossible. Because humans are highly altricial, they really depend on the mother and all our behavior is learned. There is no way that a gorilla would possibly be able to teach a human everything that they would need in order to survive in the wild.
Tarzan ended up earning $448.2 million worldwide at the box office after its release in 1999, and it has undoubtedly made millions more in the decades since due to digital and physical media sales. The soundtrack for the film, too, which features all songs written and composed by Phil Collins, was a major hit that lived on as its own entity outside the film. The soundtrack album ended up going double platinum, and "You'll Be In My Heart" won the Oscar for Best Original song.
