Cinema Surreal
Variety, the world's leading film magazine, wrote on February 13, 1985: "Anyone who has seen King Kong... will laugh themselves silly when they see this debut film by a graduate of the Munich Film School."
Heiner Stadler had made a feature film about a film journalist who sees a film by a long-lost director at the Berlinale. The director supposedly went to Hollywood in the 1920s. The journalist discovers that the director, as a set designer, created King Kong's fist. Then his trail goes cold, but since the journalist has already sold the story, he decides to simply invent it.
King Kong's Fist is great fun, an example of surrealist films from the 1980s, and a testament to Heiner Stadler's ingenious blending of reality and fiction in many of his films.
