You think the OTHER threads were small potatoes:
Ms. O'Sullivan is sporting a mighty painful-looking bruise on her upper-right thigh. Visible during the scene that starts at 58:22. She must've landed pretty hard!
agreed..she must've smacked her thigh pretty hard on something..but they kept on filming (Hooray!)
shareAccording to James Lever's hilarious Me Cheeta The Autobiography the chimp was responsible. Cheeta writes "But let me quote you a few entries from the diary I wish I'd kept:" and skipping to the "Thirteenth day of shooting" he writes:
Lot Two, Culver City Studios. Jane has accepted the dress. Aware of how attractive Johnny finds it, I steal it from where it hangs on a tree while she and Tarzan swim. But she pursues me in a tight flesh-toned bodysuit as I scamper through the branches, hysteria rising in her voice: 'Cheeta, give it back to me! Oh, Cheeta, that isn't funny... Throw it down to me. Throw it down! Cheeta, can't you see I've got nothing on, Cheeta? Give it! Give it to me! Give it to me!' She wouldn't want this dress so badly if she was completely happy here in the jungle, and as I give it to her I realize that she is stronger than Tarzan and that he will bore her in the end. Gately asks me to hop up and down on a branch in anxiety but he needn't have, I'm already there. When Maureen approaches me later, I'm panicked by her and lash out, catching her pretty hard on the thigh.
I think that Jane got the bruise on her thigh during the tussle with the crocodile, along with the cut on her shoulder. Both seem to be healing, as the story progresses, and they have both vanished by the end of the film. Tarzan and Jane always seem to heal pretty quickly in the jungle -- even when Tarzan is shot! Probably due to some natural immunizations in their environment.
