Tarzan

Tarzan is an animated adventure musical film that was produced and released by the Walt Disney Company in 1999 making it the 30th film of the Disney Animated Classics. This movie was based on the story of Tarzan of the Apes written by Edgar Rice Burroughs, but they made a lot of changes in the movie. The Disney Adaptation tale is about an orphan named Tarzan that grew up in the remote African wildness and was raised by a gorilla named Kala. For a period of time, everything was perfect for Tarzan, he even believed that he was a gorilla too until a group of British entered the jungle. As a result of the invasion, Tarzan encounters a beautiful young lady, whose name was Jane, and realized that, like her, he was human. Time passed by and Tarzan fall in love with Jane and vise versa; the problem was Tarzan was torn between going with Jane to England, or staying with his gorilla family. At the end, Tarzan decided to stay and as a consequence of that Jane was completely upset; however, when they were really to go, her father encounters her to stay with the man she loves and that was exactly what she did. Jane and her father reunited with Tarzan and started a new happy life inside the jungle.  

This movie is considered to be the last of Disney Renaissance, "the era from 1989 to 1099 during which Walt Disney Animation Studios experienced a creative resurgence in producing successful animated films based on well-known stories". This was also the last major box office success of the Disney Renaissance with $448,191,819.
