Viewing Notes

It’s often hard to think which film has stuck with me the most over the years especially not having seen them for so many years. Images from the first films have imprinted on my mind but the story of Conquest of the Planet of the Apes (1972) has remained the strongest for me. I’ve always loved the rise of Cesar and how he orchestrates it. Great film.
