I'm assuming you're referring to the 2002 film "Tarzan & Jane" (also known as "Tarzan and Jane" or "Tarzan x: Shame of Jane").
Community Take:
Fans of camp and obscure comic history love it for its audacity. Cosplayers have repurposed it for “dark Jane” builds. But others find it uncomfortable to wear a piece named after a character’s shame.
The film is a re-imagining of the classic Tarzan story, with a comedic twist. The story revolves around Tarzan (Casper Zauber), who is living in the jungle with his wife, Jane (Maureen McCormick). However, their peaceful life is disrupted when a villainous explorer, Reinhardt (Micky Dolenz), arrives in the jungle with a seductive and manipulative woman, Nidia (Aimee Ubrenfield).
Introduction Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Tarzan of the Apes is often reduced to a simplistic jungle adventure: a feral man swinging on vines, dominating beasts, and rescuing the damsel, Jane Porter. However, beneath the pulpy surface lies a profound interrogation of social Darwinism and the human condition. A pivotal, yet often overlooked, theme in the narrative is the protagonist's profound sense of shame. Tarzan is not merely a king of the jungle; he is a being trapped between two worlds. This paper posits that Tarzan’s evolution is driven not by instinct, but by a deep-seated shame regarding his otherness, and that Jane Porter represents the ultimate societal "top"—an unattainable standard of civilization that forces Tarzan to abandon his natural state.
: Ultimately, Jane chooses her social standing over the jungle life, and the Ape Man returns to the African wilderness. Tarzan (Ape Man) : Played by Rocco Siffredi , a major figure in adult cinema. : Played by Rosa Caracciolo (former Miss Hungary). Reception & Tone
Tarzan & Jane (2001) - A Decent but Flawed Sequel
The narrative tension hinges on Tarzan’s realization that to possess Jane (to be worthy of the "top" prize), he must reject the very skills that allowed him to survive. He must learn French, wear suits, and eat with utensils. The tragedy of the character is that in his attempt to ascend to the "top" of civilized society to win her, he effectively creates a new identity that is a lie, masking his true self.
