use ton of stock footage and not only from trader horn but also the first two film in the series ( for example the alligator fight be use last time out ) this be one of the weak film in the mgm series . it a huge let down after the classic tarzan and his mate which be possibly the best film in the series . the plot have jane cousin come into the jungle to tell her that she have inherit a fortune if she will come back to claim it . they be kind of in the bind since the relative that leave her the money cut them out of the will . hire a great white hunter and who secretly wish to capture tarzan and sell him and the pair head into the jungle where they run into the usual jungle trouble ( more so because of the stock footage ) . after lot of talk jane decides to go back to civilization and we get long sequence of tarzan and jame make kissy face . finally into the last half hour the plot to capture tarzan be put in motion and thing at last become interesting a plan go awry and thing look very grim for all concern . painfully dull film be clear evidence of a troubled production . the film seem to have be assemble from several different film with the first half hour playing a an almost exact repeat of the previous film . the middle third show sign of have to stretch thing out and have plot line that ultimately go nowhere . the last third where tarzan be capture and the party be put into peril be the point that the film finally come to life ( it also show sign of the graphic violence that cause much of the need to re shoot the film ) . to me it a great wonder how the series manage to continue on from here since this film isn not very good ( except at the end ) . i would be hard press to explain it except i would have to say that it be the relationship between weissmuller and osullivan a tarzan and jane which keep people come back . it a beautifully act pairing and really be one of the screen great couple . ( i should probably also mention that this be the point that the film become less real and more fantastical with the appearance of the tarzan tree house . ) i really dislike the first hour or so of this film a great deal and find it a great waste of time and energy . if you can come in towards the end i would recommend give the film a try . otherwise i would just skip the whole film and move on to the next film in the series .
