It teaches us that chimps may be very smart and friendly, but they are not humans, and when they grow large, can turn nasty. It also has much more interesting relationships involving men and women, and humans and apes.
I expected her to be employed as a device for getting lots of info about chimps into the dialogue, but no, she doesn't know much more than anyone else.īy a benign coincidence, the fascinating documentary " Project Nim" has been playing around the country and provides a sort of briefing for this film. Whether she becomes Will's surrogate wife is an excellent question the movie displays the usual PG-13 shyness about intimate details when she kisses him some years into their relationship, it's as if she's finally making a statement. During the same period, Will grows close with a primatologist named Caroline ( Freida Pinto), who becomes Caesar's surrogate mother. Will is touched by the plight of a helpless baby chimp and takes him home "for a few days." Days turn to weeks and years, and Caesar exhibits incredible intelligence and the body language of a Marcel Marceau. Assuming that ALZ 112 works, it might be safe to test on Grandpa without running much of a risk of his pounding on people with his walker. Alas, a test animal goes berserk and attacks a board meeting, and the experiment is called off - odd, because scientists should have known what the rest of us know, which is that chimps are charming until they sexually mature, after which they develop the characteristics of, well, wild animals.
