Noel and Michael are joined by returning guest Melissa Kaercher (
A Reel Education,
A Reel Education: Noir) to discuss teenage Boy, the return of Jane, and a hidden civilization of warrior women in Sol Lesser and Johnny Weissmuller's third collaboration for RKO.
This is a middle of the road adventure but nice introduction to Brenda Joyce. She had a wholesome sexiness and great legs.She worked well with both Johnnys-unfortunetly the writers made her quite bland.
ReplyDeleteJohnny looks ok in this entry but would really tone up for the next adventure.
Agreed about Brenda - RKO definitely dropped the ball with her & Weissmuller not rekindling the steamy love affair evident in the MGM series.
ReplyDeleteThat said, I think the scene with Tarzan carrying Athena, played by Shirley O'Hara, back to Palymria was lovely, even quite sexy in its own right. Think about it from Tarzan's perspective - he hadn't been with a woman in two years - and sees this leggy pretty young lady in a leopard mini-dress in peril. He didn't need much prodding to sweep Athena up and carry her honeymoon style for miles through a mountain range back to the Amazon village.
