Mighty Joe Young
Mighty Joe Young is a film made in 1949 by the same design team responsible for King Kong. It tells the story of a young woman (Jill Young, played by Terry Moore) living on a wildlife preserve in Africa, who ends up bringing the title character — a giant ape (although not giant on a King Kong scale, but more along the lines of 10-12 feet tall) — to New York City.
A 1998 remake starred Bill Paxton and Charlize Theron. In the remake, the ape is somewhat larger, and the pair go to Hollywood, California instead of New York.
