    Excellent look back at a classic film. It is really amazing that before it was completed, it had been pulled in so many different directions. Clearly a film that was meant to be made. God Bless Heston, Serling and everyone involved!
  • It’s amazing any great movie gets made. It’s always like childbirth. Yet crap gets made all the time these days. Heston was a perfect choice.

    I love that so many ppl saw the potential of this movie. it has one of the greatest twist in the history of cinema. On par with The Wicker Man 👌🏻
  • I'm only 4:33 minutes in and already I must thank you for this video. From what you've outlined in the opening minutes, it appears that the earlier drafts of POTA's script are closer to the novel because (as you later mention) they feature a scene where Zira and Cornelius discover that Nova is pregnant. Also, as lamented as the 2001 Tim Burton remake is, I now realise that its closing scenes are largely faithful to that of the novel.

    I watched the first movie when I was 4 years old 1977 and I was shocked at how good it was. I may go see Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes at the cinema.

    Excellent video! I truly enjoyed it! Planet of the Apes was so important to my childhood. Thank you for investing the time to do all the research and creating this video

    My neighbor's mother worked in the concession stand at the Pembina Drive-In in Winnipeg, Canada until the early 1970's and we got to take in a few free movies there, two of those movies were Planet of the Apes movies.
  • Heston starred in a run of sci fi films soylent green omega man & of course planet of the apes...although they are of a time they are all well worth checking out I look forward to your usual deep dive

    This is great! Can't wait for the next part.
  • This was a great video, thank you! I know it's out of the scope of this particular yarn, but have you seen the clip of Paul Williams on the Tonight Show, in full make-up from Battle, I think? It's fantastic any which way!!!

    Fun fact the name of the novel character Ulysses was a cameo character in the planet of the apes game from 2001, that’s why I remember name, thank you for this video I look forward to seeing the part two of planets of the apes videos

    Fascinating. You can see how both the original 1969 film, and the later films (in the original film se), took elements from the original book and then shaped them into the new plots. I recommend the orginal film to friends, and without exception they come back and say they were shocked by how good it was...
  • I have always thought that Youtube content makers could be taught a few simple tricks and nothing more. However, this old ape has learned a lot watching this. One of the best Ape documentaries I've watched. I look forward to checking out the rest of your channel.
