Mayelana nale movie

Disney's magnificent animated adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs's story of the ape man begins deep within the jungle when baby Tarzan is adopted by a family of gorillas. Even though he is shunned as a "hairless wonder" by their leader, Tarzan is accepted by the gorillas and raised as one of their own. Together with his wisecracking ape buddy Terk and neurotic elephant pal Tantor, Tarzan learns how to "surf" and swing through the trees and survive in the animal kingdom. His "Two Worlds" collide with the arrival of humans, forcing Tarzan to choose between a "civilized" life with the beautiful Jane and the life he knows and loves with his gorilla family.

Thanks to the deep canvas, you can see Tarzan's jungle homeland with the clever gorillas! I did realise that the gorillas were once more common in many African jungles, but they die out in most of west Africa hundreds of years ago, except for a border between Cameroon and Nigeria with just a few hundred cross river gorillas in existence! Well, Tarzan and his animal friends never lived in Cameroon (in the Greystoke: the legend of Tarzan, lord of the apes film) but in Uganda, even though Queen Victoria really conquered it as late as in 1896, just few years before her death!

so funny and a bit weird

Great soundtrack, fun family classic.
