So, 'Il était une fois... « King Kong »' from 2010 is a fascinating dive into the legacy of the King Kong franchise, though it's more of a documentary than a narrative film. The pacing is quite reflective, taking its time to explore the various adaptations and their cultural impact over the years. The tone is nostalgic, almost reverential at times, as it digs into the practical effects that have defined the giant ape's cinematic presence. The interviews and archival footage are presented with a certain charm, making it feel like a journey through film history. Not much is known about the director, which adds an air of mystery. Still, it’s distinctive for its focus on the making and evolution of King Kong rather than just the stories themselves.
