The Ape Man

A pudgy little man lives on the top floor of a skyscraper. During the day, he's a garbage man, but in the evening, he watches Tarzan-movies and dreams off in his lush roof jungle. One day, when he hears the aggressive rants of his neighbour, he looks for the Tarzan inside to rescue his nextdoor Jane.
