Thinkin' 'Bout the King

You can say a lot with a big enough monkey.

Over 70 years ago, in the crux of the Great Depression, a filmmaker who made Indiana Jones look craven glanced up at the freshly-erected Empire State Building and saw a giant ape on top. Merian C. Cooper had made a name for himself filming wild beasts, tribal wars, safaris and marvelous landscapes. As he watched a biplane soar past this man-made wonder, he envisioned an ape perched on the spire, swinging his arms at the plane. That brainstorm later became one of the great iconic images of the 20th century. It took Cooper years to make his vision real, but since 1933 it's been a hallmark of popular culture.
