Best movie ever!

Absolutely Fantastic

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

I too saw this movie as a youngster (8 or 9 years of age)and I remember the climatic scene. Dorothy Lamour's pet tiger was killed in it by the rogue elephant and I had just lost a pet cat. I cried, but I recovered in time to see the elephant beast fall to its death. I still have the theme song on an LP record. I would love to see this movie again but I have never seen a listing for it in the years I have had cable TV. This was the second Dorothy Movie in which she portrayed a jungle heroine with a pet tiger. The other being The Jungle Princess and the tiger also gets killed in that one while trying to protect her. It seems a shame that I can watch The Range Riders with Eddie Dean on cable TV but I cannot see Beyond the blue horizon.

I would love to see a re-release of this film on DVD since I never saw the film....only the "preview"...which was in Technicolor.The "preview" showed the central male lead dressed in a Tarzan type loincloth who swung out on a long vine as a giant elephant charged at him. The elephant went charging out over a huge cliff.For a 7 year old kid, this scene was a memorable advertisement. Since I saw only the preview, I didn't remember the cast nor the plot.The information provided by IMDb as well as the comments of others who have seen this movie have greatly added to my knowledge of the plot and cast.Its been a long time, but I would surely like to see this film.

I, too, have wished for years that I could see this movie again. I was about eight when I saw it. Richard Denning, as Jackra, did lure the renegade elephant to follow him to a cliff. He swung out over the cliff on a vine, ala Tarzan, and the elephant charged over the cliff. I seem to remember he had a tame lion or tiger that had jumped on the back of the elephant, but that was thrown to its death. I probably cried at that. This scene has stuck in my mind for more than 50 years, and I would really love to see it again. I could remember the title, but never could find a plot summary that mentioned this scene.

One of Miss Lamour's last "monkey flicks"...and really one of the best. Richard Denning never looked better. Great music and photography. Just plain good entertainment. It's a shame Paramount does not release this on DVD.
