Thoughts (beware of spoilers)\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tarzan’s New York Adventure <\/i>is Johnny Weissmuller’s 6th outing as the Lord of the Jungle<\/em>.\u00a0 He would make at total of 12 Tarzan<\/em> movies.\u00a0 This was Maureen O’Sullivan’s last outing as Jane.<\/p>\n

Tarzan’s New York Adventure<\/em> was one of the most profitable MGM Tarzan movies, but it was also the last one produced by MGM.\u00a0 The series would continue at other studios.<\/p>\n

Elmo Lincoln who played the movie’s first Tarzan (back in 1919) appears in a cameo as a circus roustabout.\u00a0 Mantan Mooreland also has a cameo has a nightclub janitor.<\/p>\n

This was one of my favorite Tarzan movies when I was a kid.\u00a0 I loved the idea of Tarzan making his way through the concrete jungle.\u00a0 I especially remember his rooftop escape, climbing skyscrapers, swinging from one building to another using a flagpole rope and of course the daring dive off the Brooklyn Bridge.<\/p>\n

Tarzan’s New York Adventure <\/em>(1942) <\/strong><\/em>earns 3 of 5 stars.<\/span><\/p>\n
