If you loved The Lovely Bones, try King Kong
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Peter Jackson, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Lovely Bones, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What King Kong is
Skull Island jungle darkness a biplane overhead. A film crew lands, cameras and cages at the ready, a beast awaits. Jackson reshapes a classic monster for a new era.
