Your thoughts on this movie......

In 1933 New York, an overly ambitious movie producer coerces his cast and hired ship crew to travel to the mysterious Skull Island, where they encounter Kong, a giant ape who is immediately smitten with leading lady Ann Darrow.

In preparation for her role, Watts met with the original Ann Darrow, Fay Wray.[7] Jackson wanted Wray to make a cameo appearance and say the final line of dialogue, but she died during pre-production at 96 years old.

That is so sad.

I understand that there was an awkwardly sweet moment where, at one point, Fay said to Watts "You're not Ann Darrow! I am!"

Bless her. :emoji_cry:
