Trivia: For a single frame, one can see the structure that holds the Kong puppet. The first time it's still visible in modern copies at time code 00:52:36 (after the people run away on a log used as a bridge). The second one was digitally removed years ago, and it takes place when Kong exits the cave right after Ann faints. (00:52:36 - 01:05:30)
