Abroad - Tarzan Show Sets Parisians Aflutter at Mus�e du Quai Branly - NYTimes.com: "Edgar Rice Burroughs’s famous ape man is the subject of a summer show at the Mus�e du Quai Branly here that mixes old comics and film clips with children’s action figures, a stuffed crocodile and the female robot from “Metropolis.” (Don’t ask.)
This being a serious museum, there are a few genuine African totems and shields, which look as out of place in this context as Maureen O'Sullivan did, toting her banana-leaf pocketbook and wearing a pair of homemade pumps, while standing in the bush beside the loinclothed Johnny Weissmuller and two forlorn elephants in the film “Tarzan Finds a Son!”
The show has been wildly popular."
