Perhaps the more interesting thing about previous
writers is how uncritical they were when they stated that King Kong was a symbol of imperialism, racism, capitalism, sexism
or the many other things that they imagined.

The contradictory nature of these
explanations should be a warning to anyone reading them, even if they chose to ignore
that the man who had the idea and made it into a classic, Merian C. Cooper
himself, unambiguously said that such interpretations were wrong (Huntington, 2005).
Finally, the idea of love, attraction
and even actual sex between a woman and a gorilla, even with one as large as
Kong, is scientifically possible and this certainly is the most surprising
result that I got from researching, analyzing and writing this article. Quoting
film character Carl Denham himself:
“Every
legend has a basis of truth”.
