Even the filmвЂ™s poster consists of Bo swinging through the jungle on a vine with Tarzan nowhere in sight. Tarzan does not appear until halfway through the film and has no dialogue when he does. For one, it is a misnomer to call it a Tarzan film вЂ“ it should have been called Jane. Tarzan (Miles OвЂ™Keeffe) and Jane (Bo Derek)ДЄlas, the film they produced is a ludicrously empty bore. This allowed them to go to Sri Lanka to shoot, which does afford some lavish location photography. The Dereks managed to obtain a then modest $6.5 million budget for the film. To say that Tarzan the Ape Man, the DereksвЂ™ take on Edgar Rice BurroughsвЂ™ Tarzan of the Apes (1912), is their best film and Jane the best written role that Bo Derek ever had is no particular recommendation. The expression on her face throughout these films is entirely vacant. The films are abysmal, made all the more so by BoвЂ™s phenomenal lack of acting talent and their being sold around the premise of her willingness to shed her clothes at the drop of a hat. All of these were founded on Bo Derek undressed вЂ“ nothing else. Each of these was worse than the last, including the excruciating likes of Fantasies (1981), Bolero (1984) and Ghosts CanвЂ™t Do It (1990). He put Bo through four films beginning with Tarzan the Ape Man here. John used the springboard of BoвЂ™s newfound celebrity to launch his own career as a director. This was managed by her husband John Derek, a former actor who was thirty years her senior. It was also at this very instant of BoвЂ™s success that her career began to plummet. Bo DerekвЂ™s supporting role in the film catapulted her to become an instant worldwide sex symbol. Bo came to fame in 10 (1979), a Blake Edwards comedy where Dudley Moore plays a man going through a midlife crisis who becomes fixated on her. Bo Derek was one of the genuine no-talent phenomena of the era. In the 00s, there was Paris Hilton in the 1990s, there was Pamela Anderson in the early 1980s, the equivalent was Bo Derek.
