TARZAN'S NEW YORK ADVENTURE 1942 (WARNER)

Easily the most bizarre of the Johnny Weismuller Tarzan films. Boy is kidnapped by an evil businessman and taken to his circus outside of New York. Tarzan and Jane( Maureen O' Sullivan) head off to civilization to bring Boy (Johnny Sheffield) back home.
Tarzan is mystified by the way people live in the city and eventually he is taken to court in order to get Boy back and he gets angry at an attorney who is badgering Jane, so he throws the attorney at the jury!! Good for you Tarzan.
Virginia Grey, Paul Kelly, Charles Bickford, Chill Wills and Charles Lane round out a solid cast in what may seem like a silly movie, but it's really a well made and directed film and a welcome entry in the serise.
