The New Adventures of Tarzan (1935) BRUCE BENNETT

Movie Class by PizzaFLIX: Unsatisfied with MGM’s first two Tarzan films, novelist Edgar Rice Burroughs decided not to renew his contract. Instead, he co-founded Burroughs-Tarzan Enterprises with Ashton Dearholt for the filming of THE NEW ADVENTURES OF TARZAN. He aimed to stay true to his novel’s portrayal of Tarzan as a cultured and well-educated gentleman, which he succeeded. Burroughs also sought greater financial returns, which he did not, and he was soon back with MGM.

Stars: Bruce Bennett, Ula Holt, Ashton Dearholt
Writer: Edgar Rice Burroughs (novel)

Tarzan goes to Guatemala to find his lost friend, D'Arnot. On the way, he helps Major Matling search Mayan ruins for hidden jewels and an idol containing the formula for a powerful explosive. D'Arnot and the idol are rescued, but the idol falls into the clutches of the explorer Raglan.

TRIVIA: During the film’s production in Guatemala, producer Ashton Dearholt married the lead actress Ula Holt, and Burroughs broke up with his wife to marry Dearholt's ex-wife Florence Gilbert.
