KING KONG DOUBLE BILL @ 2016 St. Louis International Film Festival
Long Live the King explores the enduring fascination with one of the biggest stars both literally and figuratively in Hollywood history: the mighty King Kong. Produced and directed by Frank Dietz and Trish Geiger, the creative team behind the award-winning Beast Wishes, the documentary devotes primary attention to the 1933 classic, celebrating the contributions of filmmakers Merian C. Cooper and Ernest B. Schoedsack, stars Fay Wray, Robert Armstrong, and Bruce Cabot, writer Edgar Wallace, and especially stop-motion innovator Willis OBrien. But Kongs legacy is also fully detailed: the sequel Son of Kong, the cinematic kin Mighty Joe Young, the Dino DeLaurentis and Peter Jackson remakes, even the Japanese versions by Toho Studios. Among the legion of Kong fans interviewed are Simpsons writer/producer Dana Gould, director Joe Dante (a former SLIFF honoree), and artist Bill Stout.
With an intro and discussion by We Are Movie Geeks editor Tom Stockman.
Includes and followed by a screening of the original 1933 KING KONG with Fay Wray.
