In  the  classic  adventure  that  made  her a star, Fay Wray plays the beautiful  woman  who  conquers  the  savage  heart  of  a  giant  ape. Traveling  to  an  uncharted  South  Pacific  island  with an adventurer following tales of a god-Ape, Ann Darrow (Wray)  is  captured  by  the island's  natives  to  serve  as  a  human  sacrifice to Kong. But when Kong, a giant  ape,  sees  Darrow,  it  is  overcome  with  love  --  and eventually captured by the adventurers.
