Mighty Joe Young, released in 1949, was brought to the screen by the same team who worked on King Kong. This gentle Gorilla is willingly brought to America to perform at a Hollywood nightclub. After some time of problem-free performances, a series of unfortunate incidents causes him to go on a rampage. He ultimately redeems himself by saving children from a burning orphanage. This is the Spanish version. Beauty and the Beast p. 34.
