George of the Jungle, Olivia Tucker



Through out the entire movie George of the Jungle movement is emphasized. Either by the speed of George's movements, thought process or just the speed from scene to scene. George always thinks on his feet and makes drastic decisions. George being from the jungle is very strong and all around physical so movement and fast actions are all in his nature.
If there was one scene I could talk about to emphasize movement in the film it would be when George climbs on top of the huge bridge in the city and sees a rope. First of all he climbs the bridge because he thinks of the city as his own type of jungle and climbs everything as if it were a tree. Which in reality this is not a normal thing for a city person to do. Once he sees the rope he immediately starts to question whether he should swing from it or not. Then he sees a man who needs his help and immediately decides to swing to help him. This is an example of George's quick thinking and how quickly he will act on his impulses. He swings just as he would have in the jungle and saves the man. Yet another example of movement that shows the audience that George treats the city like he would the jungle and ends up saving a mans life. His movements are drastic and impulsive but they're always with the best intentions.
