🌿 Movie Spotlight: Tarzan (1999)

🎬 What’s the Story

Tarzan is a Disney animated adventure drama based on the classic novel Tarzan of the Apes by Edgar Rice Burroughs. (Wikipedia)

After a shipwreck, a human baby is orphaned in the African jungle. He is found and raised by the gorilla Kala. Tarzan grows up among apes, believing they are his family — until one day he meets other humans. He is torn between two worlds: the human world and the animal world. (Wikipedia)

🌟 What Makes It Special

  • Beautiful animation: the jungle environment is rich and immersive, especially in motion. The vine-swinging, waterfall scenes, and the “Deep Canvas” techniques give depth and energy to the visuals. (Roger Ebert)

  • Powerful soundtrack by Phil Collins. Songs like “You’ll Be in My Heart” add emotional weight and are still favourites for many. (Wikipedia)

  • Themes of identity and belonging: Tarzan’s struggle to decide where he belongs — among apes or humans — is handled emotionally and thoughtfully. (Roger Ebert)

💥 Impact & Legacy

  • It was a box-office success: on a budget of about US$130 million, it grossed around US$448 million worldwide. (Wikipedia)

  • Critically acclaimed: praised for its voice acting, music, animation, and action scenes. (Wikipedia)

  • Won an Academy Award for Best Original Song for “You’ll Be in My Heart.” (Wikipedia)

✅ Why It’s Worth Watching

  • For beautiful adventure storytelling with heart — it’s more than just jungle action.

  • If you enjoy animated films that combine thrilling visuals with emotional depth.

  • For the timeless question: what makes a “home”? Where do we truly belong?
