I originally intended to just have this movie in the background. But I guess I hadn't seen it for so long that I really wanted to catch all the details.

Kala (voiced by Glenn Close) and baby Tarzan. |
The three aspects of Disney's Tarzan I love is the animation, art direction (dreadlocks/surfing Tarzan), and the soundtrack (Phil Collins/Mark Mancina).

Terk (voiced by Rosie O' Donnell), young Tantor, and young Tarzan (voiced by Alex D. Linz) |
Of course, I enjoy the story, which carried me through various emotions. Any movie capable of that tends to rank high on my list (e.g., Toy Story 3 (2010)).

Jane and Professor Porter (Nigel Hawthorne) |
Interesting, I've seen the movie several times by now, but I don't really remember the beginning at all. This is the first time I feel I really soaked in the setup of the movie.
In particular, a subtle detail is that Kala walks acros the gun.
Another small detail is that the song's lyrics closely follow the events.

Tarzan listens for a heartbeat. |
I don't remember him getting dressed in a suit and the ship scene at all.
"I've had it with you and your emotional constipation! [...]"
"You came back." "I came home."
